gf_labs()

The gf_labs() function can be used to modify the labels of your plots. You can add a title for your plot, or modify the label for the x- or y-axis.

Example:

# Add a title and change the label for the x-axis

gf_histogram(~Thumb, data = Fingers) %>%

     gf_labs( title= "Student Thumb Lengths", x = "Thumb Length (mm)" )
