Displays a wideplot in a html file.

Source: R/60_wideplot.R

A wideplot is a grid of graphics where the graphics within each row corresponds to graphical representations of each one of the variables considered within a given dataset. The types of variables and the types of graphics are limited to those included in the specimen of graphics that require one input variable.

wideplot(
  data,
  dataclass = NULL,
  logical = NULL,
  ordered = NULL,
  factor = NULL,
  character = NULL,
  datetime = NULL,
  numeric = NULL,
  group = NULL,
  ncol = 7,
  label = "FALSE",
  dir = tempdir()
)

group

Quoted character. Group of prestablished graphics which marks represent:

  • 'random': random graphics.

ncol

Numeric. Number of columns. An integer between 3 and 7. The fewer columns displayed, the larger the size of the resulting graphics, a feature that is especially useful if the scale labels dwarf the graphics area.

label

Logical. If `TRUE` the output includes labels that show the names of the graphics that are being displayed.

dir

Directory in which the files are stored.

Value

Cause the side-effect of creating and displaying a temporary html file that includes a grid of graphics. The variables of a dataset are first grouped by the type of data, then, each variable is graphically represented into a range of different graphics in one row of the matrix.
