I have a data that looks similar to this exemple of Sasha Epskamp:

library(qgraph)
library(semPlot)
library(MplusAutomation)

download.file("http://www.statmodel.com/usersguide/chap5/ex5.8.out", outfile <- tempfile(fileext = ".out"))

# Plot model:
semPaths(outfile, intercepts = FALSE)

enter image description here

I would like to "rotate" the semi-circular "Edges" for each Node. For semi-circular edges I mean the edges that normally contains complementary R^2 squares. I don't know how that is called, so it's quite impossible for me to solve this problem for my own. If more information is required, don't hesitate to ask for it.

  • I don't know what edge you want to change - do you mean the residual variance on the Y-nodes - can you give an example of which node the edges go in / out of please. Might also be useful to add a link to the example you mention. – user20650 Oct 27 '14 at 14:43
  • I mean the residual variancies in Y, and also in F1 and F2. I can't add my data due to confidenciality... :(, but that one from Sasha is a good example – Ariadna Angulo Oct 29 '14 at 08:06
  • ok, by rotate, do you mean have the edge on, for example, the right hand side of the node? – user20650 Oct 29 '14 at 08:47
  • Yes. I mean for example, Having exactly the same "direction" in Y1 than in F1 (in that case even if it's covering the other line) – Ariadna Angulo Oct 29 '14 at 10:20

There is a rotate argument in semPath. With semPath(outfile, rotation = 2) you can change the rotation of the layout. You can also specify different layout-styles with the layout = "" argument. I believe this page would be very helpfull for you to see what other semPath arguments you need: https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/semPlot/versions/1.1.2/topics/semPaths
