Unable to generate visualization after XLD output #2

Hello,

Thank you for this wonderful algorithm. It is helping well in my research. However, I am struggling with a generated --xld output. I have Plink binary file for 7790 SNPs all located in chromosome 22 (chr22b38.bed/bim/fam) with sample n=462. Previously I have partitioned the chromosome into 19 non-overlapping LD blocks, each block having SNPs ~410. I want to decompose these 19 LD-aware blocks into intra-chromosomal LD components i.e. (in my understanding) I want to investigate scaled LD between these 19 LD blocks and generate a similar heatmap that you provided.

First, I generated block-wise xld output. I took --block-snps as 410.
gear --xld --bfile chr22b38 --xld-alg 0 --block-snps 410 --chr 22 --out chr22snp410

The .xld file looks like this:

Tagi	SNPi	Tagj	SNPj	rsq	sd	pval	rsq_s	sd_s	pval_s
22_1	410	22_1	410	0.0107504	4.65688e-05	1.05619e-09	1	0	0
22_2	410	22_1	410	0.000514991	4.18766e-05	0.000125575	0.0461333	0.00377786	0.000129085
22_2	410	22_2	410	0.0173592	7.52093e-05	1.0569e-09	1	0	0
22_3	410	22_1	410	0.000494785	3.79814e-05	0.0001002	0.0497569	0.00384697	0.000103056
22_3	410	22_2	410	0.00054377	4.82584e-05	0.000176721	0.0408134	0.00364716	0.000181533
22_3	410	22_3	410	0.0142784	6.1858e-05	1.05665e-09	1	0	0

So, for 19 blocks 19 tags were generated.
Next, I sourced the 'Visualization.R' script as mentioned in the wiki section. But when I used the following R code,

library(ggplot2)
source("Visualization.R")
X_LD_Visualization(input = "PLINK_XLD/chr22snp410.xld", 
                   output = "PLINK_XLD/chr22snp410.xld",
                   significant = FALSE)

it gave me the error:
Error in order(chrLD$CHRi, chrLD$CHRj) : argument 1 is not a vector

Why such an error is coming and where did I get wrong? And how to fix this error? I have attached the .xld and the log as well, if required.

Thank you so much,
Soham
