Usage
generate_temporal_plots(
temporal_results,
output_dir,
methodology_mode = NULL,
run_id = NULL,
max_inline_themes = 30L
)Arguments
- temporal_results
List returned by
analyze_temporal_patterns- output_dir
Directory where PNGs will be saved (created if needed)
- methodology_mode
Optional character. When supplied, adds a caption to each plot identifying the mode + run id.
- run_id
Optional character: run identifier.
- max_inline_themes
Integer; the temporal emergence chart filters to the top-N themes by entry count when more themes than this exist. an earlier version of the chart rendered every theme (4,059 codes on a large run -> 2.8 MB vertical wall of text). Default 30L. Set very high (e.g. 10000L) to disable filtering.
