Arguments

data

A data frame.

x

A character string of the column name to plot on the x-axis. A character/factor column is expected. If multiple columns are provided, the columns will be concatenated with x_sep.

x_sep

A character string to concatenate the columns in x, if multiple columns are provided. When in_form is "wide", x columns will not be concatenated.

y

A character string of the column name to plot on the y-axis. A numeric column is expected. When in_form is "wide", y is not required. The values under x columns will be used as y-values.

in_form

A character string to specify the input data type. Either "long" or "wide".

sort_x

A character string to specify the sorting of x-axis, chosen from "none", "mean_asc", "mean_desc", "mean", "median_asc", "median_desc", "median".

  • none means no sorting (as-is).

  • mean_asc sorts the x-axis by ascending mean of y-values.

  • mean_desc sorts the x-axis by descending mean of y-values.

  • mean is an alias for mean_asc.

  • median_asc sorts the x-axis by ascending median of y-values.

  • median_desc sorts the x-axis by descending median of y-values.

  • median is an alias for median_asc.

flip

A logical value to flip the plot.

keep_empty

A logical value to keep the empty levels in the x-axis.

group_by

A character string to dodge the points.

group_by_sep

A character string to concatenate the columns in group_by, if multiple columns are provided.

group_name

A character string to name the legend of dodge.

x_text_angle

A numeric value specifying the angle of the x-axis text.

order_by

A string of expression passed to dplyr::arrange() to order the data to get the top nlabel points for labeling. Default is -({y}^2 + {size_by}^2) (similar to VolcanoPlot).

theme

A character string or a theme class (i.e. ggplot2::theme_classic) specifying the theme to use. Default is "theme_this".

theme_args

A list of arguments to pass to the theme function.

palette

A character string specifying the palette to use. A named list or vector can be used to specify the palettes for different split_by values.

palcolor

A character string specifying the color to use in the palette. A named list can be used to specify the colors for different split_by values. If some values are missing, the values from the palette will be used (palcolor will be NULL for those values).

alpha

Point transparency.

aspect.ratio

A numeric value specifying the aspect ratio of the plot.

legend.position

A character string specifying the position of the legend. if waiver(), for single groups, the legend will be "none", otherwise "right".

legend.direction

A character string specifying the direction of the legend.

shape

A numeric value to specify the point shape. Shapes 21–25 have borders; border behavior is controlled by border.

border

A logical or character value to specify the border of points when the shape has border (21–25). If TRUE, border color follows the point color (same as fill). If a color string, uses that constant border color. If FALSE, no border.

size_by

A numeric column name or a single numeric value for the point size. When a column, sizes are scaled (see scatter plots).

size_name

Legend title for size when size_by is a column.

size_trans

A function or a name of a global function to transform size_by (when size_by is a column). The legend shows original (untransformed) values.

jitter_width, jitter_height

Jitter parameters.

y_max, y_min

Numeric or quantile strings ("q95", "q5") for y limits computation (used for fixed coord).

y_trans, y_nbreaks

Axis settings.

add_bg

A logical value to add background to the plot.

bg_palette

A character string to specify the palette of the background.

bg_palcolor

A character vector to specify the colors of the background.

bg_alpha

A numeric value to specify the transparency of the background.

add_hline

Add one or more horizontal reference lines at the given y-value(s).

hline_type

The line type for the horizontal reference line(s).

hline_width

The line width for the horizontal reference line(s).

hline_color

The color for the horizontal reference line(s).

hline_alpha

The alpha for the horizontal reference line(s).

labels

A vector of row names or indices to label the points.

label_by

A character column name to use as the label text. If NULL, rownames are used.

nlabel

Number of points to label per x-group when labels is NULL (top by y^2 + size^2).

label_size, label_fg, label_bg, label_bg_r

Label aesthetics.

highlight, highlight_color, highlight_size, highlight_alpha

Highlighted point options.

facet_by

A character string specifying the column name of the data frame to facet the plot. Otherwise, the data will be split by split_by and generate multiple plots and combine them into one using patchwork::wrap_plots

facet_scales

Whether to scale the axes of facets. Default is "fixed" Other options are "free", "free_x", "free_y". See ggplot2::facet_wrap

facet_ncol

A numeric value specifying the number of columns in the facet. When facet_by is a single column and facet_wrap is used.

facet_nrow

A numeric value specifying the number of rows in the facet. When facet_by is a single column and facet_wrap is used.

facet_byrow

A logical value indicating whether to fill the plots by row. Default is TRUE.

title

A character string specifying the title of the plot. A function can be used to generate the title based on the default title. This is useful when split_by is used and the title needs to be dynamic.

subtitle

A character string specifying the subtitle of the plot.

xlab

A character string specifying the x-axis label.

ylab

A character string specifying the y-axis label.

seed

The random seed to use. Default is 8525.

...

Additional arguments.

Value

A ggplot object
