xmuLabel: xmuLabel: Add labels to a RAM model, matrix, or path

In umx: Structural Equation Modeling and Twin Modeling in R

xmuLabel: Add labels to a RAM model, matrix, or path

Description

xmuLabel adds labels to things, be it an: mxModel() (RAM or matrix based), an mxPath(), or an mxMatrix() This is a core function in umx: Adding labels to paths opens the door to umxEquate(), as well as omxSetParameters()

Usage

xmuLabel(
  obj,
  suffix = "",
  baseName = NA,
  setfree = FALSE,
  drop = 0,
  labelFixedCells = TRUE,
  jiggle = NA,
  boundDiag = NA,
  verbose = FALSE,
  overRideExisting = FALSE,
  name = NULL
)

Arguments

obj	An mxModel() (RAM or matrix based), mxPath(), or mxMatrix()
suffix	String to append to each label (might be used to distinguish, say male and female submodels in a model)
baseName	String to prepend to labels. Defaults to NA ("")
setfree	Whether to label only the free paths (defaults to FALSE)
drop	The value to fix "drop" paths to (defaults to 0)
labelFixedCells	= TRUE
jiggle	How much to jiggle values in a matrix or list of path values
boundDiag	Whether to bound the diagonal of a matrix
verbose	How much feedback to give the user (default = FALSE)
overRideExisting	= FALSE
name	Optional new name if given a model. Default (NULL) does not rename model.

Value

• mxModel()
