6.1 Flow Chart

The S3 method plot.panellist() organizes the flow charts of each panel member in a panellist in a collage, using the consort (Dayim 2024) and patchwork (Pedersen 2025) packages.

Figure 6.1 (Listing 6.1) presents side-by-side the flow charts of Listing 2.1 (Figure 2.1) and Listing 2.4 (Figure 2.2).
