h_xticks: Helper function to calculate x-tick positions

In tern: Create Common TLGs Used in Clinical Trials

Helper function to calculate x-tick positions

Description

Calculate the positions of ticks on the x-axis. However, if xticks already exists it is kept as is. It is based on the same function ggplot2 relies on, and is required in the graphic and the patient-at-risk annotation table.

Usage

h_xticks(data, xticks = NULL, max_time = NULL)

Arguments

data	(data.frame) survival data as pre-processed by h_data_plot.
xticks	(numeric or NULL) numeric vector of tick positions or a single number with spacing between ticks on the x-axis. If NULL (default), labeling::extended() is used to determine optimal tick positions on the x-axis.
max_time	(numeric(1)) maximum value to show on x-axis. Only data values less than or up to this threshold value will be plotted (defaults to NULL).

Value

A vector of positions to use for x-axis ticks on a ggplot object.

Examples

library(dplyr)
library(survival)

data <- tern_ex_adtte %>%
  filter(PARAMCD == "OS") %>%
  survfit(formula = Surv(AVAL, 1 - CNSR) ~ ARMCD, data = .) %>%
  h_data_plot()

h_xticks(data)
h_xticks(data, xticks = seq(0, 3000, 500))
h_xticks(data, xticks = 500)
h_xticks(data, xticks = 500, max_time = 6000)
h_xticks(data, xticks = c(0, 500), max_time = 300)
h_xticks(data, xticks = 500, max_time = 300)
