Look at https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/egg/vignettes/Ecosystem.html where there are two mpg charts, one above the other. What would I need to add to:

|library(gtable) g2 <-ggplotGrob(p2) g3 <-ggplotGrob(p3) g <-rbind(g2, g3, size = "first") g$widths <-unit.pmax(g2$widths, g3$widths) grid.newpage() grid.draw(g) |

|to make the second chart 1/2 the size of the top one?|
