)Arguments
- data
- The data frame containing estimates to be plotted. 
- col.x
- Name of column that provides the x-axis value (e.g. exposure, risk factor, dependent variable). (Default: "x") 
- col.estimate
- Name of column that provides point estimates. (Default: "estimate") 
- col.stderr
- Name of column that provides standard errors. (Default: "stderr") 
- col.lci
- Name of column that provides lower limit of confidence intervals. 
- col.uci
- Name of column that provides upper limit of confidence intervals. 
- col.n
- Name of column that provides number to be plotted below CIs. 
- exponentiate
- Exponentiate estimates (and CIs) before plotting, use log scale on the axis. (Default: FALSE) 
- logscale
- Use log scale for vertical axis. (Default: exponentiate) 
- scalepoints
- Should the points be scaled by inverse of the standard error? (Default: FALSE) 
- digits
- Number of digits to use in text of estimates. 
- minse
- Minimum standard error to use when scaling point size. (Default will use minimum in the data.) 
- pointsize
- The (largest) size of box to use for plotting point estimates. (Default: 3) 
- col.group
- Name of column that groups the estimates. (Default: NULL) 
- shape
- Shape of points. An integer, or name of a column of integers. (Default: 15) 
- plotcolour
- Colour for non-data aspects of the plot. (Default: "black") 
- colour
- Colour of points. Name of a colour, or name of a column of colour names. (Default will use plotcolour) 
- cicolour
- Colour of CI lines. Colour of CI lines. Name of a colour, or name of a column of colour names. (Default will use plotcolour) 
- fill
- Fill colour of points. Fill colour of points. Name of a colour, or name of a column of colour names. (Default will use plotcolour) 
- ciunder
- Plot CI lines before points. A logical value, or name of a column of logical values. (Default will plot CI lines after points.) 
- lines
- Plot lines (linear fit through estimates, weighted by inverse variance). (Default: FALSE) 
- xlims
- A numeric vector of length two. The limits of the x-axis. 
- ylims
- A numeric vector of length two. The limits of the y-axis. 
- height
- Panel height to use and apply different formatting to short CIs. A grid::unit() object, or if numeric is assumed to be in mm. 
- width
- Panel width.A grid::unit() object, or if numeric is assumed to be in mm. 
- gap
- A numeric vector of length two. The gap between plotting area and axis to the left and bottom of the plot, as a proportion of the x-axis length. (Default: c(0.025, 0.025)) 
- ext
- A numeric vector of length two. The extensions to add to the right and top of the plot, as a proportion of the x-axis length. (Default: c(0.025, 0.025)) 
- ratio
- The ratio (y-axis:x-axis) to use for the plot. (Default: 1.5) 
- base_size
- base font size, given in pts. 
- base_line_size
- base size for line elements 
- stroke
- Size of outline of shapes. (Default: base_size/22) 
- axis.title.margin
- Margin between axis titles and plot. (Default: 1) 
- xbreaks
- Breaks for the x axis. Passed to ggplots::scale_x_continuous. (Default: NULL) 
- ybreaks
- Breaks for the y axis. Passed to ggplots::scale_y_continuous. (Default: NULL) 
- xlab
- Label for x-axis. (Default: "Risk factor") 
- ylab
- Label for y-axis. (Default: "Estimate (95% CI)") 
- legend.name
- The name of the colour scale/legend for groups. (Default: "") 
- legend.position
- Position of the legend for groups ("none", "left", "right", "bottom", "top", or two-element numeric vector). (Default: "top") 
- title
- Plot title. (Default: NULL) 
- quiet
- Set to TRUE to not print the plot nor show generated code in the RStudio 'Viewer' pane. (Default: FALSE) 
- printplot
- Print the plot. (Default: !quiet) 
- showcode
- Show the ggplot2 code to generate the plot in RStudio 'Viewer' pane. (Default: !quiet) 
- addaes, addarg, add
- Methods for customising the plot. See documentation for details. 
- envir
- Environment in which to evaluate the plot code. May be useful when calling this function inside another function.
