General plot function for RLum S4 class objects

Source: R/plot_RLum.R
plot_RLum.Rd

The function calls object specific plot functions for RLum S4 class objects.

Usage

plot_RLum(object, ...)

Arguments

object

RLum (required): object of class RLum or a list of such objects. If a list is provided, the function tries to plot every object in the list according to its RLum class, after removing non-RLum objects.

...

further arguments and graphical parameters to pass to the specific plot functions. The only arguments that are supported directly are main (plot title) and mtext (plot subtitle). Here main can be provided as a list and the arguments in the list will dispatched to the plots if object is of type list as well.

Value

Produces a plot depending on the input object.

Details

The function provides a generalised access point for plotting various RLum objects. Depending on the input object, the corresponding plot function will be selected. Allowed arguments can be found in the documentations of each plot function.
