[Traminer-users] how to sort a sequence plot (seqIplot) by more than one variable

[Alexis gabadinho]

Hi Joel,

Use first the order function to create one single sorting variable, and 
then pass this variable to the seqIplot function. Here is an example 
with the biofam data frame where sequences are sorted by gender and birthyr

data(biofam)
biofam.seq <- seqdef(biofam, 10:25)
csort <- order(biofam$sex, biofam$birthyr)
seqIplot(biofam.seq, sortv=csort)

All the best,
Alexis
