Plot Time Series

Source: R/tsplot.R
tsplot.Rd

Conveniently plot time series.

Usage

tsplot(
  ...,
  tsr = NULL,
  ci = NULL,
  left_as_bar = FALSE,
  group_bar_chart = FALSE,
  relative_bar_chart = FALSE,
  left_as_band = FALSE,
  plot_title = NULL,
  plot_subtitle = NULL,
  plot_subtitle_r = NULL,
  find_ticks_function = "findTicks",
  overall_xlim = NULL,
  overall_ylim = NULL,
  manual_date_ticks = NULL,
  manual_value_ticks_l = NULL,
  manual_value_ticks_r = NULL,
  manual_ticks_x = NULL,
  theme = NULL,
  quiet = TRUE,
  auto_legend = TRUE,
  output_format = "plot",
  filename = "tsplot",
  close_graphics_device = TRUE
)

Arguments

...

multiple objects of class ts or a list of time series. All objects passed through the ... parameter relate to the standard left y-axis.

tsr

list of time series objects of class ts.

ci

list of confidence intervals for time series

left_as_bar

logical should the series that relate to the left bar be drawn as (stacked) bar charts?

group_bar_chart

logical should a bar chart be grouped instead of stacked?

relative_bar_chart

logical Should time series be normalized such that bars range from 0 to 1? Defaults to FALSE. That way every sub bar (time series) is related to the global max. Hence do not expect every single bar to reach 1. This works for stacked and grouped charts and does not change anything but the scale of the chart.

left_as_band

logical Should the time series assigned to the left axis be displayed as stacked area charts?

plot_title

character title to be added to the plot

plot_subtitle

character subtitle to be added to the plot

plot_subtitle_r

character second subtitle to be added at the top right

find_ticks_function

function to compute ticks.

overall_xlim

integer overall x-axis limits, defaults to NULL.

overall_ylim

integer overall y-axis limits, defaults to NULL.

manual_date_ticks

character vector of manual date ticks.

manual_value_ticks_l

numeric vector, forcing ticks to the left y-axis

manual_value_ticks_r

numeric vector, forcing ticks to the right y-axis

manual_ticks_x

numeric vector, forcing ticks on the x axis

theme

list of default plot output parameters. Defaults to NULL, which leads to init_tsplot_theme being called. Please see the vignette for details about tweaking themes.

quiet

logical suppress output, defaults to TRUE.

auto_legend

logical should legends be printed automatically, defaults to TRUE.

output_format

character Should the plot be drawn on screen or written to a file? Possible values are "plot" for screen output and "pdf". Default "plot"

filename

character Path to the file to be written if output_format is "pdf". Default "tsplot.pdf"

close_graphics_device

logical Should the graphics device of the output file be closed after tsplot? Set this to FALSE to be able to make modifications to the plot after tsplot finishes. Default TRUE

Details

The ci parameter is a 3-level list of the form list( ts1 = list( ci_value_1 = list( ub = upper_bound_ts_object, lb = lower_bound_ts_object ), ... ), ... )

See vignette("tstools") for details.
