Description

Hi,

Thanks for this amazing package, I've been playing with it for a few days, and it will be really useful with my data :)

I have a question regarding the heat trees, that I could't find an answer elsewhere. I'm trying to visualize changes over time of my dataset, by doing individual heat trees of the different time points. The problem is that for each tree, the topology changes a little, which makes the comparisons difficult.

Is there a way to make a facet of multiple heat trees, using the timepoint variable for faceting? Or any other ideas/suggestions?
Thanks!

Research direction

Start by locating the package's heat-tree and faceting entry points and reviewing how tree topology is generated for each time point. Done means providing a documented way to facet multiple heat trees while keeping their topology comparable, or clearly documenting why another approach is recommended.
