either the string "locations" (the default) or the string "arrangeGrobArgs". If "locations", then the generic function `l_getLocations()` will be called and only the location arguments of `gridExtra::arrangeGrob()` used (i.e. a subset of `c("ncol", "nrow", "layout_matrix", "heights", "widths")`). The grobs to be laid out are constructed using the generic function `l_getPlots()`.
