I am trying to remove the background & gridlines from my Violin plot drawn by R. Please let me know the script/method. Also please let me know method to move the axis title n graph title in R. Anyone aware of the script?
I would recommend to ask this Q at Stack Overflow community too:

To Anmol Banerjee: Unfortunately, I do not have some great experience with R...
Hello Anmol Banerjee. I guess you are using ggplot. If so the following codes might be of use for you:
Remove background and gridlines:
+ theme(panel.grid.major = element_blank(), panel.grid.minor = element_blank(), panel.background = element_blank(), axis.line = element_line(colour = "black"))
Title position:
+ theme(plot.title = element_text(hjust = 0.5))
hjust = 0.5 will place the title of your plot at the center. Therefore you just have to change this value.
Axis title:
+ opts(axis.title.x = theme_text(vjust = 0.5))
Again you have to change the vjust-value.
I hope this helps!
Best regards
Paul
