Welkom in this group.

You provide us with very little information to help you: which packages, functions??

Could I ask you to provide a minimal REPRoducible EXample (reprex)? A reprex makes it much easier for others to understand your issue and figure out how to help. A reprex consists of the minimal code and data needed to recreate the issue/question you’re having. You can find instructions how to build and share one here:
