plotPath: Construct the graphic object of the path

Description

This function takes the path as input and outputs an ggplot2 object. The image will correctly position the node labels with x-axis representing the node year, and y-axis representing the node path index. Edges between two nodes represent parent-child relationships between those nodes. For visual appeal, there is a grey box that outlines the node label, as well as an underline and overline for each label.

Usage

plotPath(path, fontFace = 1)

Arguments

path

object created from function getPath

fontFace

fontface for the two nodes of interest (1=plain, 2=bold, 3=italic, 4=bold-italic), DEFAULT is 1

p <- getPath("Brim", "Bedford", ig, sbGeneal)
plotPath(p)
plotPath(p, fontFace = 4)
