Changelog • benviplot

benviplot 1.2.0

Removed functions deprecated since v1.1.x: plot_line_trend(), plot_column_label(), pretty_number(), setup_benvi_fonts(), and get_poppins_variants().
Removed utility functions benvi_colors(), list_colors(), and list_palettes(). Use show_palettes() for palette exploration.
check_poppins_installed() is now an internal function.
Reduced hard dependencies: ggfittext and systemfonts moved to Suggests; forcats, lifecycle, and scales removed from Imports.

Reduced to a single vignette (getting-started); removed color-palettes, plot-functions, themes-and-styling, and font-setup vignettes.
Updated README with simplified examples.

Renamed pretty_number() to format_num_br(). The old name is soft-deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

plot_column() gains three new parameters: text_inside (renders labels inside bars via ggfittext), text_place, and text_padding.
plot_column_label() deprecated. Use plot_column(text_inside = TRUE) instead.
plot_line_trend() deprecated. Use geom_smooth() or manual trend lines instead.

New dataset sales_report: zone-level rental price data with listing vs contract prices (272 rows).
plot_scatter() gains a fit_color parameter for custom trend line colors.
theme_benvi() now uses relative font sizes and adds plot margins for better spacing.

Replaced the showtext-based font system with a systemfonts/ragg stack, eliminating DPI mismatch issues in font rendering.

install_poppins(): download and install Poppins system-wide (one-time setup).
check_poppins_installed(): check if Poppins is available.
font_status(): report font setup status and recommendations.
ggsave_benvi(): wrapper around ggsave() that uses the ragg device for PNG files when available; defaults to 300 DPI.
theme_benvi() automatically falls back to “sans” if Poppins is not installed.

First official stable release.

36 curated color palettes organized by type (theme, sequential, qualitative, city, brand).
ggplot2 scale functions: scale_color_benvi_d(), scale_fill_benvi_d(), scale_color_benvi_c(), scale_fill_benvi_c().
Plot helpers: plot_line(), plot_column(), plot_scatter(), plot_area(), plot_histogram().
Custom theme theme_benvi() with Poppins font support.
Sample datasets: iqa, iqaiw.
250 tests, pkgdown site, GitHub Actions CI/CD.

All palettes were renamed with descriptive names. Selected renames:

0.9.6: Breaking palette renaming (Set0-7, Seq0-7, Qual1-9 replaced with descriptive names). Added benvi_colors(), list_palettes(), show_palettes().
0.9.5: pkgdown website and GitHub Actions CI/CD pipelines.
0.9.4: Added iqaiw dataset.
0.9.3: Added four vignettes (getting-started, color-palettes, plot-functions, themes-and-styling).
0.9.2: Added test suite (196 tests).
0.9.1: Modernized error handling with cli; renamed pal parameter to palette in all plot functions.
0.9.0: Removed iqa_region dataset; added legal disclaimers; updated dependencies.

Initial release with core color palette system, ggplot2 scales, plot helpers, and theme_benvi().
