Export density plot data matrix

[asongggg]

Hi,

I am wondering if there is a way to output the data matrix from plot_density? Specifically, how do I extract the density estimation data, which is plotted to generate the density plots?

Thank you, Annie

Hi Annie,

Thank you for your continued use of cyCombine!

We didn't think about an export functionality, as it is directly computed in the plot generation with ggridges::geom_density_ridges. While we consider your suggestion, you can copy and run some of the plotting code and extract density estimates with density_estimates <- ggplot2::ggplot_build(plot_object)$data[[1]].

Alternatively, you can compute the density estimates from the data with stats::density().

I hope this was helpful :)

Best regards, Søren
