\arguments{
\item{x}{a matrix or \code{data.frame}.}
\item{delimiter}{a character-vector to distinguish between variables and
imputation-indices for imputed variables (therefore, \code{x} needs to have
\code{\link[=colnames]{colnames()}}). If given, it is used to determine the corresponding
imputation-index for any imputed variable (a logical-vector indicating which
values of the variable have been imputed). If such imputation-indices are
found, they are used for highlighting and the colors are adjusted according
to the given colors for imputed variables (see \code{col}).}
\item{highlight}{a vector giving the variables to be used for highlighting.
If \code{NULL} (the default), all variables are used for highlighting.}
\item{selection}{the selection method for highlighting missing/imputed
values in multiple highlight variables. Possible values are \code{"any"}
(highlighting of missing/imputed values in \emph{any} of the highlight
variables) and \code{"all"} (highlighting of missing/imputed values in
\emph{all} of the highlight variables).}
\item{plotvars}{a vector giving the variables to be plotted. If \code{NULL}
(the default), all variables are plotted.}
\item{plotNA}{a logical indicating whether missing values in the plot
variables should be represented by a point above the corresponding
coordinate axis to prevent disconnected lines.}
\item{col}{if \code{plotNA} is \code{TRUE}, a vector of length six giving
the colors to be used for observations with different combinations of
observed and missing/imputed values in the plot variables and highlight
variables (vectors of length one or two are recycled). Otherwise, a vector
of length two giving the colors for non-highlighted and highlighted
observations (if a single color is supplied, it is used for both).}
\item{alpha}{a numeric value between 0 and 1 giving the level of
transparency of the colors, or \code{NULL}. This can be used to prevent
overplotting.}
\item{lty}{if \code{plotNA} is \code{TRUE}, a vector of length four giving
the line types to be used for observations with different combinations of
observed and missing/imputed values in the plot variables and highlight
variables (vectors of length one or two are recycled). Otherwise, a vector
of length two giving the line types for non-highlighted and highlighted
observations (if a single line type is supplied, it is used for both).}
\item{xlim, ylim}{axis limits.}
\item{main, sub}{main and sub title.}
\item{xlab, ylab}{axis labels.}
\item{labels}{either a logical indicating whether labels should be plotted
below each coordinate axis, or a character vector giving the labels.}
\item{xpd}{a logical indicating whether the lines should be allowed to go
outside the plot region. If \code{NULL}, it defaults to \code{TRUE} unless
axis limits are specified.}
\item{interactive}{a logical indicating whether interactive features should
be enabled (see \sQuote{Details}).}
\item{\dots}{for \code{parcoordMiss}, further graphical parameters to be
passed down (see \code{\link[graphics:par]{graphics::par()}}). For \code{TKRparcoordMiss},
further arguments to be passed to \code{parcoordMiss}.}

\description{
Parallel coordinate plot with adjustments for missing/imputed values.
Missing values in the plotted variables may be represented by a point above
the corresponding coordinate axis to prevent disconnected lines. In
addition, observations with missing/imputed values in selected variables may
be highlighted.
}
\details{
In parallel coordinate plots, the variables are represented by parallel
axes. Each observation of the scaled data is shown as a line. Observations
with missing/imputed values in selected variables may thereby be
highlighted. However, plotting variables with missing values results in
disconnected lines, making it impossible to trace the respective
observations across the graph. As a remedy, missing values may be
represented by a point above the corresponding coordinate axis, which is
separated from the main plot by a small gap and a horizontal line, as
determined by \code{plotNA}. Connected lines can then be drawn for all
observations. Nevertheless, a caveat of this display is that it may draw
attention away from the main relationships between the variables.
If \code{interactive} is \code{TRUE}, it is possible switch between this
display and the standard display without the separate level for missing
values by clicking in the top margin of the plot. In addition, the variables
to be used for highlighting can be selected interactively. Observations
with missing/imputed values in any or in all of the selected variables are
highlighted (as determined by \code{selection}). A variable can be added to
the selection by clicking on a coordinate axis. If a variable is already
selected, clicking on its coordinate axis removes it from the selection.
Clicking anywhere outside the plot region (except the top margin, if
missing/imputed values exist) quits the interactive session.
}
\note{
Some of the argument names and positions have changed with versions
1.3 and 1.4 due to extended functionality and for more consistency with
other plot functions in \code{VIM}. For back compatibility, the arguments
\code{colcomb} and \code{xaxlabels} can still be supplied to \code{\dots{}}
and are handled correctly. Nevertheless, they are deprecated and no longer
documented. Use \code{highlight} and \code{labels} instead.
