plot.PosteriorHD: Plots historical decompositions

Description

Plots of the posterior means of the historical decompositions.

Usage

# S3 method for PosteriorHD
plot(
  x,
  cols,
  main,
  xlab,
  mar.multi = c(1, 4.6, 0, 4.6),
  oma.multi = c(6, 0, 5, 0),
  ...
)

Arguments

x

an object of class PosteriorHD obtained using the compute_historical_decompositions() function containing posterior draws of historical decompositions.

cols

an N-vector with colours of the plot

main

an alternative main title for the plot

xlab

an alternative x-axis label for the plot

mar.multi

the default mar argument setting in graphics::par. Modify with care!

oma.multi

the default oma argument setting in graphics::par. Modify with care!

...

additional arguments affecting the summary produced.
