Panels (or faceting) can be created by using the facets
argument as follows:
facets is a string e.g facets = "SEX",
facets will be created using ggforce::facet_wrap_paginatefacets is a formula e.g
facets = SEX~MED1, facets will be created using
ggforce::facet_grid_paginate# Example with a string
dv_vs_ipred(xpdb, facets = c('SEX', 'MED1'))# Example with a formula
dv_vs_ipred(xpdb, facets = SEX~MED1, margins = TRUE)All xpose plot functions accept arguments for
facet_wrap_pagninate and facet_grid_paginate
(e.g. ncol = 2, labeller = 'label_both',
etc.). With the default xpose theme scales are set to
'free' from one panel to another
(scales = 'free'), this behavior can be changed with
scales = 'fixed', 'free_y' or
'free_x'.
When the arguments ncol and nrow are set
and under the condition that they are more panels to be drawn that can
fit on a single page given the selected layout, the multiple page
functionality will automatically be enabled.
dv_vs_ipred(xpdb, facets = c('SEX', 'MED1'), ncol = 2, nrow = 1)By default all pages will be shown but this can be time consuming. To
select only specific pages to be drawn, use the argument
page.
dv_vs_ipred(xpdb, facets = c('SEX', 'MED1'), ncol = 2, nrow = 1, page = 1)It is also possible to change the page(s) to be drawn from an already
existing xpose_plot object via the print()
function.
# Create an xpose_plot, by default page = 1
p1 <- dv_vs_ipred(xpdb, facets = c('SEX', 'MED1'), ncol = 2, nrow = 1)
# Change the page to be drawn
print(p1, page = 2)To number pages the keywords @page and
@lastpage can be used to respectively indicate the current
page and the total number of pages.
dv_vs_ipred(xpdb, facets = c('SEX', 'MED1'), ncol = 2, nrow = 1, page = 1, caption = 'Page @page of @lastpage')To systematically number all generated plots a caption suffix can be
defined in the xp_theme.
xpdb_numbered <- update_themes(xpdb, xp_theme = list(caption_suffix = ', page @page of @lastpage'))
dv_vs_ipred(xpdb_numbered, facets = c('SEX', 'MED1'), ncol = 2, nrow = 1, page = 2)Multiple pages graphs can simply be saved by using the
xpose_save() function.
dv_vs_ipred(xpdb_numbered, facets = c('SEX', 'MED1'), ncol = 2, nrow = 1) %>%
xpose_save(file = 'dv_vs_ipred_multiple.pdf')The pdf format can conveniently store multiple pages
within a single document. However other graphical devices
(e.g. 'png', 'jpg') can also be used, simply
ensure to have a page counter (i.e. '%03d') added the file
name.
dv_vs_ipred(xpdb_numbered, facets = c('SEX', 'MED1'), ncol = 2, nrow = 1) %>%
xpose_save(file = '@run_@plotfun_%03d.png')
