fplot (version 1.1.0)

setFplot_dict: Sets/gets the dictionary used in fplot

Description

Sets/gets the default dictionary used to rename the axes/moderator variables in the functions of the package fplot. The dictionaries are used to relabel variables (usually towards a fancier, more explicit formatting) that can be useful not to explicitly use the arguments xlab/ylab when exporting graphs. By setting the dictionary with setFplot_dict, you can avoid providing the argument dict in fplot functions.

Usage

setFplot_dict(dict)
getFplot_dict

Value

The function setFplot_dict() does not return anything, it only sets an option after checking the format of the arguments.

The function getFplot_dict() returns a named vector representing the dictionary set in setFplot_dict().

Format

An object of class function of length 1.

Arguments

dict

A named character vector. E.g. to change my variable named "us_md" and "state" to (resp.) "$ miilion" and "U.S. state", then use dict = c(us_md="$ million", state = "U.S. state").
