geom_sketch_parallel: Sketchy parallel-coordinates plot

Description

Draws a hand-drawn parallel-coordinates plot: each numeric column in axes becomes a vertical axis, and every observation becomes a roughened polyline crossing the axes at its values. Axes are scaled independently to a common height by default. Like geom_sketch_chord() it is a constructor returning a list of ordinary sketch layers, so it composes with +; map colour to a column (add scale_colour_sketch() or any colour scale) and pair with theme_void() or theme_sketch(). No new dependencies (cf. GGally::ggparcoord(), MASS::parcoord()).

Usage

geom_sketch_parallel(
  data,
  axes,
  colour = NULL,
  ...,
  scale = "minmax",
  line_colour = "#1F618D",
  alpha = 0.7,
  axis_colour = "grey60",
  label = TRUE,
  label_size = 3.5,
  label_colour = "grey20",
  roughness = 1,
  bowing = 1,
  n_passes = 2L,
  seed = NULL
)

Value

A list of ggplot2 layers.

Arguments

data

A data frame.

axes

Character vector of numeric column names to use as axes, in order (at least two).

colour

Optional column name to colour the lines by (NULL = one colour). Add a colour scale to style it.

...

Other arguments passed on to the line layer.

scale

Per-axis scaling: "minmax" (default, each axis to [0, 1]) or "none" (raw values; only sensible when the axes share units).

line_colour

Colour used when colour is NULL. Default "#1F618D".

alpha

Line opacity. Default 0.7.

axis_colour

Colour of the vertical axes. Default "grey60".

label

Draw axis labels? Default TRUE.

label_size, label_colour

Axis-label text controls.

roughness, bowing, n_passes, seed

Sketch parameters.
