)A compositeKDE class object generated using the ckde function.
Either 'BP' or 'BCAD'. Indicate whether the calibrated date should be displayed in BP or BC/AD. Default is 'BP'.
Either envelope or multiline. Default is envelope.
the y limits of the plot.
the x limits of the plot. In BP or in BC/AD depending on the choice of the parameter calender. Notice that if BC/AD is selected BC ages should have a minus sign (e.g. c(-5000,200) for 5000 BC to 200 AD).
Envelope color when type='envelope'. Default is 'lightgrey'.
Quantile interval for the envelope. Default is 0.95.
Line color when type='envelope'. Default is 'black.
Line type when type='envelope'. Default is 2.
Alpha level for line transparency when type='multiline'. Default is 10/nsim, where nsim is the number of simulations. If nsim is smaller than 10, multiline.alpha will be set to 1.
Line color when type='multiline'. Default is 'black'.
Additional arguments affecting the plot
Visualise a compositeKDE class object. If type is set 'envelope' an envelope of the percentile interval defined by the parameter interval is shown along with the mean KDE. If type is set 'multiline' all KDEs are shown.
