Hi Thomas,

I just added the initial version of geom_spider and the GeomSpider ggproto for spider plots. It’s currently not working. I tried but could not fix. I get this error when trying to plot:

Error in geom_spider():
! Problem while setting up geom.
Caused by error in setup_data():
! Elements not found in data: "La", "Ce", and "Nd"
Available columns: "PANEL" and "group"

Example usage

df <- data.frame(
Sample = c("A","B"),
La = c(10,5),
Ce = c(20,8),
Nd = c(15,6)
)

ggplot() +
geom_spider(
data = df,
elements = c("La","Ce","Nd"),
sample_id = "Sample"
) +
scale_x_continuous(
breaks = 1:3,
labels = c("La","Ce","Nd")
) +
scale_y_log10()

Feedback from maintainer meeting about data input:

• wide/ASTR format as default
• handler for long format as separate function because this will also concern other geoms.

@Abagna123 I checked your code and it requires some more work. Most importantly, everything should be handled in the Geom definition to allow its use with other `geom_...()" functions. And the elements to be plotted should be supplied as an aesthetic.

Is there a reason for including na.rm? From the current code, it doesn't seem like it does anything.

@archaeothommy yes,the na.rm parameter was never used. so i will simply remove it.
