)Arguments
- srt
A Seurat object.
- features
A character vector specifying the features to plot.
- group.by
A character vector specifying the variables to group the data by.
- split.by
A character vector specifying the variables to split the data by. Default is
NULL, which means no splitting is performed.- assay
A character specifying the assay to use from the Seurat object. Default is
NULL, which means the default assay will be used.- layer
A character specifying the layer to use from the assay. Default is
"data".- flip
Whether to flip the x-axis. Default is
FALSE.- reverse
Whether to reverse the y-axis. Default is
FALSE.- x_order
A character specifying how to order the x-axis. Can be
"value"or"rank". Default is"value".- decreasing
Whether to order the groups in decreasing order. Default is
NULL.- palette
The color palette to use for grouping variables. Default is
"Paired".- palcolor
The color to use for each group. Default is
NULL.- cells
A character vector specifying the cells to plot. Default is
NULL, which means all cells are included.- keep_empty
Whether to keep empty groups. Default is
FALSE.- y.nbreaks
A number of breaks on the y-axis. Default is
4.- y.min
A numeric specifying the minimum value on the y-axis. Default is
NULL, which means the minimum value will be automatically determined.- y.max
A numeric specifying the maximum value on the y-axis. Default is
NULL, which means the maximum value will be automatically determined.- same.y.lims
Whether to use the same y-axis limits for all plots. Default is
FALSE.- aspect.ratio
A numeric specifying the aspect ratio of the plot. Default is
NULL, which means the aspect ratio will be automatically determined.- title
A character specifying the title of the plot. Default is
NULL.- subtitle
A character specifying the subtitle of the plot. Default is
NULL.- legend.position
A character specifying the position of the legend. Default is
"right".- legend.direction
A character specifying the direction of the legend. Default is
"vertical".- theme_use
A character specifying the theme to use. Default is
"theme_scop".- theme_args
A list of arguments to pass to the theme function.
- combine
Whether to combine multiple plots into a single plot. Default is
TRUE.- nrow
A number of rows in the combined plot. Default is
NULL, which means determined automatically based on the number of plots.- ncol
A number of columns in the combined plot. Default is
NULL, which means determined automatically based on the number of plots.- byrow
Whether to add plots by row or by column in the combined plot. Default is
TRUE.- force
Whether to continue plotting if there are more than 50 features. Default is
FALSE.
