In splot: Simplified Plotting for Data Exploration

splot 0.5.4

Improvements

• improves export name handling.

splot 0.5.3

Additions

• adds splot.colorcontrast.

Improvements

• improves reference resolution in colors and add.
• allows for more control over graphical parameters.

Bug fixes

• accounts for NULL stringsAsFactors option.
• appropriately drops levels when they are based on a factor.

splot 0.5.2

Additions

• dark option to more easily set text colors for dark backgrounds.

Improvements

• standardizes color codes before passing them to par.
• avoids overwriting par color settings.
• better handles arguments outside of options when options is specified.
• treats logical y variables as binary rather than factors.

splot 0.5.1

Additions

• check equivalency of expression outputs within splot.bench.

Improvements

• handles input with as.matrix but not as.data.frame methods.
• adds a cutoff option and relative timings to splot.bench for better display, and includes more in its return.
• splot.bench now evaluates within the global environment so loaded packages can be used.

splot 0.5.0

Additions

• specify how colors are interpolated with color.summary.
• calculate average colors with the splot.colormean function.
• fill the area under each density lines with its color with density.fill = TRUE (default), adjust the fill's opacity with density.opacity, and further control the densities with arguments in density.args (which replaces the old bw and adj arguments).

Improvements

• broadens colorby applicability and flexibility.
• tweaks default spacing rules to maximize plot areas.
• aligns axis label specification for density with other types.
• better retains or infers names for multiple variables.
• avoids an error when colorby's by has missing values.

Bug fixes

• corrects several colorby assignment issues.
• handles mixed-type multiple ys by converting non-numeric variables to numeric when other numeric variables are included.
• maintains variable ordering when displaying counts of categorical ys.
• includes colorby variable name in split note when split.

splot 0.4.2

Additions

• assign colors in the scale of numeric values with splot.color's grade argument.

Improvements

• makes a legend for colorby in more cases.
• allows renaming and reordering of character or factor y levels.
• more broadly retains character and factor level orders.
• more broadly accounts for missing values.
• better handles colorby x aggregation.
• splot.color returns shorter color codes when opacity is 1.

Bug fixes

• corrects application of adjustments in splot.color when no sampling method is used.
• corrects connected line paths when sparse.
• calculates frequencies of y levels within by and between splits.
• corrects some colorby x and by assignments.
• preserves color assignments when colorby has multiple arguments, and some levels of by are empty.
• avoids error when a level of split is empty.

splot 0.4.1

Improvements

• allows splot.color sampling to be turned off.
• allows splot.bench to handle single runs.
• enables more sorting options.

Bug fixes

• correctly does not display error bars when error is set to FALSE.
• corrects the x-axis range of scatter plots when x is logical.
• corrects bet reassignment given multiple ys.

splot 0.4.0

Additions

• place the legend interactively.
• adjust color opacity, and assign colors in gradients.
• split by specified values.
• display predicted probability lines in scatter plots with 2-level ys.
• allows for non-numeric y variables.

Improvements

• general improvements in automatic settings.
• more reliable connection between data and line colors, types, and widths.
• provides more control over the legend and colorby.
• improved reading of the y and su arguments.
• improved bar plot y-axis labels.

Bug fixes

• now appropriately recycles short variables.
• avoids an error when levels of by are missing within between splits.

splot 0.3.2

Additions

• sort text x variables by their y values.
• split by a specified number of segments.

Improvements

• cleared up sub/sud related mixups.
• level ordering now applies to between variables.
• improved formula parsing; expressions should be better recognized as arguments.
• rearranged arguments to be more like other functions; variables other that y must be named, or entered as part of the y formula.
• multiple variables entered as y can now be renamed/ordered with an mv entry in levels.

Bug fixes

• corrected y-axis labeling for bar plots when autori is true.
• custom notes now overwrite all other note elements.
• specified x levels are now appropriately applied when mv.as.x is true.
• standardized lty behavior across types, and prevented it from causing errors.
• fixed an issue with longer vectors entered directly as arguments.
• multiple y variables with the same name are now treated as different.

splot 0.3.1

Additions

• added colorby argument, offering a different way to assign colors.
• added utility functions: splot.color to assign colors by group, and splot.bench to plot the run-time of expressions.
• allows for text as x-axis labels in scatter plots.

Improvements

• changed the way variables are evaluated to accommodated calls to splot from within functions.
• improved handling of between variables with uneven levels.
• improved variable/level length handling.
• improved handling of prediction line errors and some fatal errors.
• bar and line plots no longer skip levels of x with only one level of by.

Bug fixes

• corrected occasional mismatch between x labels and data.
