Issues with rob_summary() and rob_traffic_light()

[Emanuel-1986]

Hi,

I am using my previous R code to build risk of bias plots using robvis, something which I had done quite frequently and without hassle over the past 2 years. However, now it is giving me a lot of issues.

Below is my code:

library('readxl')
library('robvis') 
library('ggplot2') 
library("tidyverse") 

setwd("D:/xxxxx/xxxxxxx")

E1 = read_xlsx("D:/xxxxx/xxxxxx/ROB.student.xlsx")
str(E1) # pro

library(dplyr)

E1 <- E1 %>% mutate(across(everything(), as.factor))
str(E1) # pro

plot<-rob_summary(E1, tool = "ROB1", overall = F, weighted = F)
plot + ggtitle("Summary risk of bias plot using the Cochrane risk of bias tool version 1")+
  theme(plot.title = element_text(hjust = 0.3))  # Move title slightly right

robvis::rob_traffic_light(E1, tool = "ROB1", psize = 7) 

The issues are:

1. The summary plot (second image below) shows only 5 domains when my data has 7 domains for the ROB1. The last 2 are not visible. How can I include the last 2 domains?
2. The traffic light plot shows the authors' names in a vertical position, whereas in previous years, they were correctly shown horizontally. Instead of D7, it writes the domain's name, while for D1:D6, it writes the abbreviation in the top row of the plot. How can I rotate the authors' names? And change the name of the last domain to D7 in the plot?

R version: 4.4.2
OS: Windows 10

Hi @Emanuel-1986,

Thanks for the bug report.

My best guess is that you may have updated other packages robivs depends on recently without moving to the development version of robvis.

See the previous discussion here around vertical study/author titles: #81

I wasn't able to reproduce the issue with the 6th/7th domain of the ROB1/Generic tool being ommitted from the summary plot, but I would recommend updating to the development version of {robvis} and seeing if the issue persists.

To update, run the following:

install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("mcguinlu/robvis")
