threeParamPlot: Used to plot the RAD, slope and FoG parameter results

Description

This function creates a pdf figure of plots showing the results of the imageJ analysis for resistance (RAD), tolerance (FoG), and sensitivity (slope).

Usage

threeParamPlot(projectName, type, RAD = "RAD20", FoG = "FoG20", RADmin = 30, slopeMax = 160, tolMax = 100, width = 6, height = 4, xlabels = "line", xlabAngle = NA, order = NA, orderFactor = "line", overwrite = TRUE, savePDF = TRUE, popUp = TRUE)

Arguments

projectName
the short name to be used for the project
type
specify whether the dataset to use is a dataframe with all data ("df") or an aggregated dataframe ("ag")
RAD
specify the RAD (radius) parameter to be plotted ("RAD20", "RAD50" or "RAD80"), default = "RAD20".
FoG
specify the FoG (fraction of growth) parameter to be plotted ("FoG20", "FoG50" or "FoG80"), default = "FoG20".
RADmin
minimum distance from the disk for resistance plot (minimum y axis value), default = 30.
slopeMax
maximum y axis value for slope (sensitivity) plot
tolMax
maximum y axis value for tolerance plot. Note tolerance is coverted to a percent, default = 100.
width
a numeric value indicating the width of the pdf file generated
height
a numeric value indicating the height of the pdf file generated
xlabels
either a vector containing the desired x-axis labels, or a single value indicating the column name that contains the values to use (likely either the 'line' column or one of the type columns), default = "line".
xlabAngle
indicates whether to print the x axis labels on a angle, if a number is provided this will be the angle used. The defauilt is not to plot on an angle, default = NA.
order
can be either "factor" or "custom". If custom, supply a numberial vector the same length as the dataframe to indicate the desired order. If factor, supply the column name in ordeFactor to be used to factor.
orderFactor
if order = "factor" supply the column name to be used to factor.
overwrite
a logical value indicating whether to overwrite existing figures created on the same day for the same project name
savePDF
a logical value indicating whether to save a PDF file or open a new quartz window. Defaults to TRUE (saves a pdf file).
popUp
a logical value indicating whether to pop up the figure after it has been created

Value

Either a pdf figure figure saved to the 'figures' directory ("projectName_RAD-slope-FoG.pdf" or a figure on screen

Details

Basic parameter plotting functions for three parameter plots (RAD, FoG , slope). Input can be the dataframe from either createDataframe type="df" or from aggregateData type=="ag". The default is to plot tolerance as a barplot and RAD and slope as a dotplot; tolerance can also be plotted as a dotplot with barplot=FALSE though there is currently not support to plot either RAD or slope as a barplot in this framework.
