Create a half-violin plot.
Usage
geom_violinhalf(
mapping = NULL,
data = NULL,
stat = "ydensity",
position = "dodge",
trim = TRUE,
flip = FALSE,
scale = c("area", "count", "width"),
show.legend = NA,
inherit.aes = TRUE,
...
)
Arguments
- mapping
Set of aesthetic mappings created by
aes()
. If specified andinherit.aes = TRUE
(the default), it is combined with the default mapping at the top level of the plot. You must supplymapping
if there is no plot mapping.- data
The data to be displayed in this layer. There are three options:
If
NULL
, the default, the data is inherited from the plot data as specified in the call toggplot()
.A
data.frame
, or other object, will override the plot data. All objects will be fortified to produce a data frame. Seefortify()
for which variables will be created.A
function
will be called with a single argument, the plot data. The return value must be adata.frame
, and will be used as the layer data. Afunction
can be created from aformula
(e.g.~ head(.x, 10)
).- stat
The statistical transformation to use on the data for this layer, either as a
ggproto
Geom
subclass or as a string naming the stat stripped of thestat_
prefix (e.g."count"
rather than"stat_count"
)- position
Position adjustment, either as a string naming the adjustment (e.g.
"jitter"
to useposition_jitter
), or the result of a call to a position adjustment function. Use the latter if you need to change the settings of the adjustment.- trim
If
TRUE
(default), trim the tails of the violins to the range of the data. IfFALSE
, don't trim the tails.- flip
Should the half-violin plot switch directions? By default, this is
FALSE
and all half-violin geoms will have the flat-side on facing leftward. Ifflip = TRUE
, then all flat-sides will face rightward. Optionally, a numeric vector can be supplied indicating which specific geoms should be flipped. See examples for more details.- scale
if "area" (default), all violins have the same area (before trimming the tails). If "count", areas are scaled proportionally to the number of observations. If "width", all violins have the same maximum width.
- show.legend
logical. Should this layer be included in the legends?
NA
, the default, includes if any aesthetics are mapped.FALSE
never includes, andTRUE
always includes. It can also be a named logical vector to finely select the aesthetics to display.- inherit.aes
If
FALSE
, overrides the default aesthetics, rather than combining with them. This is most useful for helper functions that define both data and aesthetics and shouldn't inherit behaviour from the default plot specification, e.g.borders()
.- ...
Other arguments passed on to
layer()
. These are often aesthetics, used to set an aesthetic to a fixed value, likecolour = "red"
orsize = 3
. They may also be parameters to the paired geom/stat.
