mPlot: Interactive plotting

Description

These functions provide a menu selection system (via manipulate) so that different aspects of a plot can be selected interactively. The ggplot2 or lattice command for generating the plot currently being displayed can be copied to the console, whence it can be copied to a document for later direct, non-interactive use.

Usage

mPlot(data, format, default = format, system = c("lattice", "ggplot2"), show = FALSE, title = "", data_text = expr_text(data), ...)
mMap(data, default = "map", system = "ggplot2", show = FALSE, title = title, data_text = expr_text(data), ...)
mScatter(data, default = c("scatter", "jitter", "boxplot", "violin", "line"), system = c("lattice", "ggplot2"), show = FALSE, title = "", data_text = lazyeval::expr_text(data))
mUniplot(data, default = c("histogram", "density", "frequency polygon", "ASH plot"), system = c("lattice", "ggplot2"), show = FALSE, title = "", data_text = expr_text(data))

Arguments

object

an R object from which a plot will be constructed.

...

additional arguments. If object is an lm, subsets of these arguments are passed to grid.arrange and to the lattice plotting routines; in particular, nrow and ncol can be used to control the number of rows and columns used.

which

a numeric vector used to select from 7 potential plots

system

which graphics system to use (initially) for plotting (ggplot2 or lattice). A check box will allow on the fly change of plotting system.

ask

if TRUE, each plot will be displayed separately after the user responds to a prompt.

multiplot

if TRUE and ask == FALSE, all plots will be displayed together.

par.settings

lattice theme settings

level

a confidence level

title

title for plot

rows

rows to show. This may be a numeric vector, TRUE (for all rows), or a character vector of row names.

format, default

default type of plot to create; one of "scatter", "jitter", "boxplot", "violin", "histogram", "density", "frequency polygon", or "map". Unique prefixes suffice.

show

a logical, if TRUE, the code will be displayed each time the plot is changed.

ylab

label for y-axis

xlab

label for x-axis

order

one of "pval", "diff", or "asis" determining the order of the pair factor, which determines the order in which the differences are displayed on the plot.

data

a data frame containing the variables that might be used in the plot.

data

a data frame containing the variables that might be used in the plot. Note that for maps, the data frame must contain coordinates of the polygons comprising the map and a variable for determining which corodiantes are part of the same region. See sp2df for one way to create such a data frame. Typically merge will be used to combine the map data with some auxilliary data to be displayed as fill color on the map, although this is not necessary if all one wants is a map.

format

a synonym for default.

default

default type of plot to create; one of "scatter", "jitter", "boxplot", "violin", "histogram", "density", "frequency polygon", "xyplot", or "map". Unique prefixes suffice.

system

which graphics system to use (initially) for plotting (ggplot2 or lattice). A check box will allow on the fly change of plotting system.

show

a logical, if TRUE, the code will be displayed each time the plot is changed.

title

a title for the plot

data_text

A text string describing the data. It must be possible to recover the data from this string using eval(). Typically users will not need to modify this from the default value.

...

additional arguments

Value

Nothing. Just for side effects.

Details

Only mPlot is required by end users. The other plotting functions are dispatched based on the value of default. Furthermore, mplot will dispatch mPlot when provided a data frame.

Currently maps are only supported in ggplot2 and not in lattice.

Examples

## Not run: 
# mPlot(HELPrct, format="scatter")
# mPlot(HELPrct, format="density")
# ## End(Not run)
