Create styles for single-case data plots

Description

The style_plot function is used to create graphical styles for a single-case plot

Usage

style_plot(style = "default", ...)

Arguments

style	A character string or a vector of character strings with predefined styles.
...	Further arguments passed to the plot command.

Details

style_plot("") will return a list of predefined styles. Predefined styles can be combined style_plot(style = c("grid2", "tiny")) where settings of a latter style overwrite settings of the former. Additional style paramters are set following the style argument and can be combined with those: style_plot(style = "grid2", fill = "grey50", pch = 18).

Value

Returns a list to be provided for the style argument of the plot.scdf() function.

• fill If set, the area under the line is filled with the given color (e.g., fill = "tomato"). Use the standard R command colors() to get a list of all possible colours. fill is empty by default.

• annotations A list of parameters defining annotations to each data point. This adds the score of each MT to your plot.

  • "pos" Position of the annotations: 1 = below, 2 = left, 3 = above, 4 = right.

  • "col" Color of the annotations.

  • "cex" Size of the annotations.

  • "round" Rounds the values to the specified decimal.

• annotations = list(pos = 3, col = "brown", round = 1) adds scores rounded to one decimal above the data point in brown color to the plot.

• "names" A list of parameters defining the depiction of phase names (e.g. names = list(cex = 0.8, col = "red", side = 1): cex for size, col for color, and side for position). See mtext for more details.

• "lwd" Width of the plot line. Default is lwd = 2.

• "pch" Point type. Default is pch = 17 (triangles). Other options are for example: 16 (filled circles) or "A" (uses the letter A).

• "main" Main title of the plot.

• "mai" Sets the margins of the plot.

• "bty" Shape of the frame surrounding the inner plot

• "fill.bg" Background color of the plot. If a vector is provided, these colors will be assigned to phases (each phase name becomes a color).

• "grid" Color of a grid.

• "text.ABlag" Text displayed between phases.

• "cex.axis" Size of the axis annotations

• "las" Orientation of the axis annotations

• "col.lines" Color of the lines

• "col.dots" Color of the dots

• "col.seperator" Color of the phase seperating lines

• "col.bg" Color of the outer plot

• "col" General color setting for the plot

• "col.text" Color of all labels of the plot.

newstyle <- style_plot(style = "default")
newstyle$text.ABlag <- c("START", "END")
newstyle$col.dots <- ""
newstyle$annotations <- list(cex = 0.6, col = "grey10", offset = 0.4)
newstyle$names <- list(cex = 0.8, col = "blue", side = 1, adj = 1, line = -1, at = 31)
newstyle$fill.bg <- c("grey99", "grey95", "grey90")
plot(exampleABC, style = newstyle, main = "Example Plot")
