RE: Perfecting Pie Charts in R🥧- ggplot Tutorial 11

Thank you, for this post, I didn't knew about theme_void() I think I will use it from now on.
I got a question, the hjust = 0.5 is the code that put the title in top center positions I guess, but what it means the vjust = 0.5 in geom_text().
I mean I imagine is what puts te labels inside the pie sections. But does it work vjust in that particular case!
Thanks

Yeah, you're absolutely right. The hjust is the horizontal justification for the plot title. It is a little confusing why the geom_text would use vjust for the labels, but I think it is because a "pie chart" in ggplot is really just a transformed bar chart. So, sometimes things get weird as far as what is vertical and what is horizontal.
thank you! Pie charts with ggplot are possibly te most difficult data visualization tool I have ever used.
