I'm trying to overlay outlined rectangles on a geom_tile ggplot. Right now I am calling the rectangles using geom_rect

geom_rect(xmin=2, xmax=49, ymin=1, ymax=30, color="black",alpha=0.5, fill=NA, size = 0.3) + geom_rect(xmin=7, xmax=45, ymin=5, ymax=42, color="black",alpha=0.5, fill=NA, size = 0.3)

The problem is that the line for the edge of the rectangle falls directly in the center of the tile. Essentially, the position of the edge it is acting like

geom_raster(vjust = 0.5, hjust=0.5)

Unfortunately, geom_rect doesn't have hjust or vjust parameters. How can I change the position of the rectangle so that the edge of the rectangle falls between cells (as if I was setting hjust = 0 or hjust = 1 and the same for vjust)?

It's hard to understand what kind of plot you want to generate. Please provide all code (with `geom_tile`) – pogibas Jun 04 '18 at 19:30
This is what I was looking for. Thank you. – David Jun 04 '18 at 19:41
