This function takes a data table, X and Y variables, and plots a graph with a dotplot, box-whiskers and violinplot using geom_violin
, geom_boxplot
geom_dotplot
geometries.

a data table object, e.g. data.frame or tibble.
name of the column to plot on X axis. This should be a categorical variable.
name of the column to plot on quantitative Y axis. This should be a quantitative variable.
size of dots relative to binwidth
used by geom_dotplot
. Default set to 1.5, increase/decrease as needed.
thickness of dot border (stroke
parameter of geom_dotplot
), default set to 1.
thickness of violin and boxplot lines; default 1.
width of boxplots; default 0.2
set whether tips of violin plot should be trimmed at high/low data. Default trim = T
, can be changed to F.
set to "area" by default, can be changed to "count" or "width".
fractional opacity of violins, default set to 1 (i.e. maximum opacity & zero transparency). For white boxplots inside violins, set b_alpha = 0
.
fractional opacity of violins, default set to 1 (i.e. maximum opacity & zero transparency).
fractional opacity of dots, default set to 1 (i.e. maximum opacity & zero transparency).
grafify colour palette to apply, default "all_grafify"; alternatives: "okabe_ito", "bright", "pale", "vibrant", "contrast", "muted" "dark", "light".
whether to reverse order of colour choice, default F (FALSE); can be set to T (TRUE).
logical TRUE or FALSE. Default TRUE for sequential colours from chosen palette. Set to FALSE for distant colours, which will be applied using scale_fill_grafify2
.
orientation of text on X-axis; default 0 degrees. Change to 45 or 90 to remove overlapping text.
parameter of base_size
of fonts in theme_classic
, default set to size 20.
any additional arguments to pass to ggplot2
geom_boxplot, ggplot2
geom_dotplot or ggplot2
geom_violin.
This function returns a ggplot2
object of class "gg" and "ggplot".
Note that the geom_violin
options are set as follows: scale = "width"
. The trim = T
set by default can be changed when calling the function.
The boxplot shows IQR, and whiskers show 1.5*IQR; the median is marked with a thicker horizontal line.
The X variable is mapped to the fill
aesthetic in both violinplot and dotplot.
Colours can be changed using ColPal
, ColRev
or ColSeq
arguments. Colours available can be seen quickly with plot_grafify_palette
.
ColPal
can be one of the following: "okabe_ito", "dark", "light", "bright", "pale", "vibrant, "muted" or "contrast".
ColRev
(logical TRUE/FALSE) decides whether colours are chosen from first-to-last or last-to-first from within the chosen palette.
ColSeq
(logical TRUE/FALSE) decides whether colours are picked by respecting the order in the palette or the most distant ones using colorRampPalette
.
The size of dots can be adjusted using the parameter, which is dotsize = 1
by default.
This function is related to plot_scatterbar_sd
, plot_dotbar_sd
and plot_dotviolin
.
