Current limitations

There are some limitations to SuperPlotR. This vignette covers them and offers solutions where possible.

Conditions and Replicates are categories

If you have a dataset where the conditions and replicates are numeric, SuperPlotR converts them to character for plotting. This is the intended behaviour for a SuperPlot.

Currently, if your data has Conditions that are numeric, for example time points, and these are unevenly spaced, e.g. 0, 1, 3, 9 hours; then these will appear evenly spaced on the x-axis. This is a limitation of the current implementation. Raise an issue if you would like this to be changed.

Adding annotations directly to the SuperPlot

Adding labels or statistical testing results is not currently supported.

Such annotations need to be added manually either in R or post-hoc in Inkscape or similar vector-based drawing program.
