R help - Feb 2018 - Putting 733 discrete categories on Y-axis in qqplot2 as they are

Hi all;

I have 733 discrete categories that will go on y-axis in ggplot2. I used
the following command to put the name of x-axis.

scale_x_discrete (limits = c("SI", "HOMAIR",
"AIR","HOMAB","SG","DI","FI","FG"))

Since there are only 8 categories on x it was easy to do. Is there any way
to do the same for 733 discrete categories for y-axis. Essentially I did
not want to order categories. I would like to put the name of categories as
they are.

Best regards,

Greg

You probably can achieve the y axis with 733 levels if you do not use limits in
scale.

Just from curiosity, standard page has 30 lines, so your axis should stretch to
more than 20 pages. Or you need to shrink your y axis 20 times. Both options
will give you unreadable results.

Hi Petr;

Thanks. I do save the result in pdf by using the following command.

   ggsave("z7.pdf", p4, height = 95, width = 8, device=pdf, limitsize
F,dpi=300)

 I can achieve the y axis with 733 levels. But I need get the plot WITHOUT
reordering the names.

Regards,

Greg
