Draw violin plots

circos.violin(value, pos, violin_width = 0.8,
    col = NA, border = "black", lwd = par("lwd"), lty = par("lty"),
    show_quantile = TRUE, pt.col = par("col"), cex = par("cex"), pch = 16,
    max_density = NULL, sector.index = get.current.sector.index(),
    track.index = get.current.track.index())

Arguments

value

A numeric vector, a matrix or a list. If it is a matrix, boxplots are made by columns.

pos

Positions of the boxes.

violin_width

Width of violins.

col

Filled color of boxes.

border

Color for the border as well as the quantile lines.

lwd

Line width.

lty

Line style

show_quantile

Whether to show the quantile lines.

cex

Point size.

pch

Point type.

pt.col

Point color

max_density

The maximal density value across several violins. It is used to compare between violins.

sector.index

Index of sector.

track.index

Index of track.

Examples

# \donttest{ circos.initialize(letters[1:4], xlim = c(0, 10))
circos.track(ylim = c(0, 1), panel.fun = function(x, y) { for(pos in seq(0.5, 9.5, by = 1)) { value = runif(10) circos.violin(value, pos) } })
circos.clear() circos.initialize(letters[1:4], xlim = c(0, 10))
circos.track(ylim = c(0, 1), panel.fun = function(x, y) { value = replicate(runif(10), n = 10, simplify = FALSE) circos.violin(value, 1:10 - 0.5, col = 1:10) })
