tidygate allows you to interactively gate points on a scatter plot. Interactively drawn gates are recorded and can be applied programmatically to reproduce results exactly. Programmatic gating is based on the package gatepoints by Wajid Jawaid.

install.package("tidygate")tidygate provides a single user-facing function: gate. The following
examples make use of this function, four packages from the tidyverse and
the inbuilt mtcars dataset.

By default, gate creates an interactive scatter plot based on
user-defined X and Y coordinates. Colour, shape, size and alpha can be
defined as constant values, or can be controlled by values in a
specified column.
Once the plot has been created, multiple gates can be drawn with the
mouse. When you have finished, click continue. gate will then return a
vector of strings, recording the gates each X and Y coordinate pair is
within.

mutate(gated = gate(x = mpg, y = wt, colour = disp))
To select points which appear within any gates, filter for non-NA values. To select points which appear within a specific gate, string pattern matching can be used.
