[CRAN](https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/panelView/index.html) (1.1.18)

## Description

**panelView** visualizes panel data. It has three main functionalities:

1. it plots treatment status and missing values in a panel dataset;

2. it plots the temporal dynamics of an outcome variable (or any variable) in a panel dataset;

3. it visualizes bivariate relationships of two variables by unit or in aggregate.

## Installation

You can install the up-to-date development version from GitHub: 

```{r eval=FALSE}

# if not already installed

install.packages('devtools', repos = 'http://cran.us.r-project.org') 

# note: "V" is capitalized

devtools::install_github('xuyiqing/panelView') 

```

You can also install the **panelView** package from CRAN: 

```{r eval=FALSE}

install.packages('panelView') 

```

If you encounter an installation/execution error, please remove the old package and reinstall **panelView**.

```{r eval=FALSE}

remove.packages('panelView') 

# or

remove.packages('panelview') # package name "panelview" no longer in use

```

## Tutorial & Paper

For example, plot treatment status in a panel dataset:

```{r example, eval=FALSE}

library(panelView)

data(panelView)

panelview(turnout ~ policy_edr + policy_mail_in + policy_motor, 

          data = turnout, index = c("abb","year"), 

          xlab = "Year", ylab = "State")

```

Note that "V" in the package name is capitalized while "v" in the function name is not---to be consistent with the Stata version. 

See the [tutorial](https://yiqingxu.org/packages/panelview/articles/tutorial.html) page for more details. 

For a paper version of the tutorial, see [Mou, Liu & Xu (2023)](https://www.jstatsoft.org/article/view/v107i07): "Panel Data Visualization in R (panelView) and Stata (panelview)."
