tidygate (version 1.0.14)

gate: Gate points

Description

Gate points based on their X and Y coordinates. By default, this function launches an interactive scatter plot. Colour, shape, size and alpha can be defined as constant values, or can be controlled by the values of a specified column.

If previously drawn gates are supplied to the `programmatic_gates` argument, points will be gated programmatically. This feature allows the reproduction of previously drawn interactive gates. Programmatic gating is based on the package gatepoints by Wajid Jawaid.

Usage

gate(
  x,
  y,
  colour = NULL,
  shape = NULL,
  alpha = 1,
  size = 2,
  programmatic_gates = NULL
)

Value

A vector of strings, of the gates each X and Y coordinate pair is within. If gates are drawn interactively, they are temporarily saved to `tidygate_env$gates`.

Arguments

x

A vector representing the X dimension.

y

A vector representing the Y dimension.

colour

A single colour code string compatible with ggplot2. Or, a vector representing the point colour.

shape

A single ggplot2 shape numeric ranging from 0 to 127. Or, a vector representing the point shape, coercible to a factor of 6 or less levels.

alpha

A single ggplot2 alpha numeric ranging from 0 to 1. Or, a vector representing the point alpha, either a numeric or factor of 6 or less levels.

size

A single ggplot2 size numeric ranging from 0 to 20. Or, a vector representing the point size, either a numeric or factor of 6 or less levels.

programmatic_gates

A `data.frame` of the gate brush data, as saved in `tidygate_env$gates`. The column `x` records X coordinates, the column `y` records Y coordinates and the column `.gate` records the gate number. When this argument is supplied, gates will be drawn programmatically.

Examples

library(dplyr)
data("demo_gate_data", package = "tidygate")

# Gate points interactively
if(interactive()) {
  mtcars |>
    mutate(gated = gate(x = mpg, y = wt, shape = am))
}

# Gate points programmatically
mtcars |>
  mutate(gated = gate(x = mpg, y = wt, programmatic_gates = demo_gate_data))
