ridge plot weird behavior when total number of pure and reliable taxa > 1000 #6

First--the new plots are great!

I'm analyzing a relatively large 16S dataset and found some strange behavior in the ridge plots when a gradient has more than 1000 combined z-/z+ taxa and you try to limit the number of taxa plotted for readability.

Specifically, only the z- taxa will show, and at the bottom of the graph will be a mess of overwritten text that is the z+ taxa.

When you split the taxa plot (e.g. FALSE for plot z1) there is further weird behavior. Setting z2 to FALSE is fine--everything works as expected. Setting z1 to false works, but only 2-3 taxa are plotted, and they are very strange looking. I had to set the number of taxa plotted to ~300 to get roughly 60 to plot (this changes based on the titan output you're plotting).

Thanks!

Hi @kdyson – Thanks, sounds... strange. Can you provide a simple reproducible example? If not, could you email me your dataset and script? (If it's too large, we can make other arrangements.)

Hi @dkahle, I think the easiest option would be to email you my TITAN output object and code.

Hello,

Do you have an update for this issue? I am also encountering a situation where I have to specify the argument n_ytaxa=6 to plot 2 species and a high number >100 to plot 50 species.

Thank you for the work on this package and for your time.
