Details

The output is a plot of a regression trunk. Exception: If the first splitting predictor is categorical with more than 2 categories, the output will be multiple plots: for each category one plot of a regression trunk.

Note

Known bug: If a splitting variable (not the first one) in the regression trunk is categorical, the values of the categories are not displayed in the plot.
