plot_befafter_colours: Plot a before-after plot with lines joining colour-matched...

In grafify: Easy Graphs for Data Visualisation and Linear Models for ANOVA

Plot a before-after plot with lines joining colour-matched symbols.

Description

One of 3 related functions to plot matching data joined by lines. The variable containing information for matching (e.g. matched subjects or experiments etc.) is passed to the match argument.

1. plot_befafter_colours or plot_befafter_colors,

2. plot_befafter_shapes

3. plot_befafter_box

Arguments

data	a data table object, e.g. data.frame or tibble.
xcol	name of the column containing the categorical variable to be plotted on the X axis.
ycol	name of the column containing the quantitative Y values.
match	name of the column with the matching variable to pass on to geom_line.
facet	add another variable from the data table to create faceted graphs using ggplot2facet_wrap.
Boxplot	logical TRUE/FALSE, whether to show box and whisker plot or not (default is FALSE)
symsize	size of symbols, default set to 3.
s_alpha	fractional opacity of symbols, default set to 1 (i.e. maximum opacity & zero transparency).
jitter	extent of jitter (scatter) of symbols, default is 0.1. Increase to reduce symbol overlap, set to 0 for aligned symbols.
bwid	width of boxplots; default 0.4.
TextXAngle	orientation of text on X-axis; default 0 degrees. Change to 45 or 90 to remove overlapping text.
LogYTrans	transform Y axis into "log10" or "log2"
LogYBreaks	argument for ggplot2[scale_y_continuous] for Y axis breaks on log scales, default is waiver(), or provide a vector of desired breaks.
LogYLabels	argument for ggplot2[scale_y_continuous] for Y axis labels on log scales, default is waiver(), or provide a vector of desired labels.
LogYLimits	a vector of length two specifying the range (minimum and maximum) of the Y axis.
facet_scales	whether or not to fix scales on X & Y axes for all facet facet graphs. Can be fixed (default), free, free_y or free_x (for Y and X axis one at a time, respectively).
fontsize	parameter of base_size of fonts in theme_classic, default set to size 20.
symthick	size (in 'pt' units) of outline of symbol lines (stroke), default = fontsize/22.
bthick	thickness (in 'pt' units) of boxes; default = (fontsize)/22.
lthick	thickness (in 'pt' units) of lines; default = (fontsize/1.2)/22.
ColPal	grafify colour palette to apply, default "okabe_ito"; see graf_palettes for available palettes.
ColSeq	logical TRUE or FALSE. Default TRUE for sequential colours from chosen palette. Set to FALSE for distant colours, which will be applied using scale_fill_grafify2.
ColRev	whether to reverse order of colour within the selected palette, default F (FALSE); can be set to T (TRUE).
SingleColour	a colour hexcode (starting with #), a number between 1-154, or names of colours from grafify or base R palettes to fill along X-axis aesthetic. Accepts any colour other than "black"; use grey_lin11, which is almost black.
...	any additional arguments to pass to ggplot2geom_line or ggplot2geom_point.

Details

In plot_befafter_colours/plot_befafter_colors and plot_befafter_shapes setting Boxplot = TRUE will also plot a box and whiskers plot.

Note that only 25 shapes are available, and there will be errors with plot_befafter_shapes when there are fewer than 25 matched observations; instead use plot_befafter_colours instead.

Colours can be changed using ColPal, ColRev or ColSeq arguments. ColPal can be one of the following: "okabe_ito", "dark", "light", "bright", "pale", "vibrant, "muted" or "contrast". ColRev (logical TRUE/FALSE) decides whether colours are chosen from first-to-last or last-to-first from within the chosen palette. ColSeq decides whether colours are picked by respecting the order in the palette or the most distant ones using colorRampPalette.

To plot a graph with a single colour along the X axis variable, use the SingleColour argument.

The resulting ggplot2 graph can take additional geometries or other layers.

Value

This function returns a ggplot2 object of class "gg" and "ggplot".

Examples

#plot without legends if necessary
plot_befafter_colours(data = data_t_pdiff, 
xcol = Condition, ycol = Mass, 
match = Subject, s_alpha = .9, ColSeq = FALSE)+
guides(fill = "none", 
colour = "none") #remove guides
#plot with boxplot
plot_befafter_colours(data = data_t_pdiff, 
xcol = Condition, ycol = Mass, 
match = Subject, s_alpha = .9, ColSeq = FALSE,
Boxplot = TRUE)+
guides(fill = "none", 
colour = "none") #remove guides
