Examples

#Start with a base swimmer plot
swim_plot <-
swimmer_plot(df=ClinicalTrial.Arm,id='id',end='End_trt',name_fill='Arm',col="black",id_order='Arm')


# Then add lines to the plot

swim_plot_with_lines <- swim_plot +
swimmer_lines(df_lines=ClinicalTrial.Response,id='id',start =
'Response_start',end='Response_end',name_col='Response',size=3)


# Add ggplot layers to improve the plot's aesthetic

swim_plot_with_lines +
ggplot2::scale_color_manual(name="Response",values=c("grey20","grey80"))+
ggplot2::scale_fill_manual(name="Treatment",values=c("#e41a1c", "#377eb8","#4daf4a"))+
