Internal helper to plot a metric density

Description

Internal helper function to plot one metric density, to be called from within plot_density.

Usage

plot_density_metric(
  dat,
  y_var,
  plot_type = "density",
  dat_highlightDiagonals = NULL,
  y_var_cat_breaks = NULL,
  y_var_cat_labels = NULL,
  weights_var = NULL,
  log_scale = FALSE,
  xlab = NULL,
  ylab = NULL,
  legend_title = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

dat	Dataset with columns period and age and the main variable specified through argument y_var.
y_var	Character name of the main variable to be plotted.
plot_type	One of c("density","boxplot"). Only used if the y_var column is metric.
dat_highlightDiagonals	Optional dataset created by create_highlightDiagonalData to highlight specific diagonals in a density matrix.
y_var_cat_breaks	Optional numeric vector of breaks to categorize y_var based on calling function cut. Only used to highlight the categories based on different colors. And only used if the y_var column is numeric.
y_var_cat_labels	Optional character vector for the names of the categories that were defined based on y_var_cat_breaks. The length of this vector must be one shorter than length(y_var_cat_breaks). Only used if the y_var column is numeric.
weights_var	Optional character name of a weights variable used to project the results in the sample to some population.
log_scale	Indicator if the main variable should be log10 transformed. Only used if the y_var column is numeric. Defaults to FALSE.
xlab, ylab, legend_title	Optional plot annotations.
...	Additional arguments passed to density.
