do_RidgePlot() | Density ridge plots

Ridge plots display density distributions stacked vertically, making it easy to compare distributions across many groups. Built on the ggridges package.

Basic usage

p <- SCpubr::do_RidgePlot(sample = sample,
                          feature = "nCount_RNA",
                          group.by = "subtype")
p

Split by variable

p <- SCpubr::do_RidgePlot(sample = sample,
                          feature = "nCount_RNA",
                          group.by = "subtype",
                          split.by = "technology")
p

Continuous color scale

Color ridges by a continuous gradient instead of categorical colors:

p <- SCpubr::do_RidgePlot(sample = sample,
                          feature = "nCount_RNA",
                          group.by = "subtype",
                          continuous_scale = TRUE)
p
