Dear all,
I have a question about the lattice package, more specifically about the
control of the x-axis length in the different panels. I use the following
code to make the stacked barchart:
barchart(country ~ climatechangefocalpoint + meteorologyservice +
adaptationorvulnerability + cdmcarbonmarkets + energy +
aviationmaritimetransport + forestry + pressofficer|period, data=graph5,
as.table=T,
xlim=c(0,150),
layout=c(3,1),
par.strip.text=list(cex=1.5),
scales = list(alternating = 3, cex=1.2, tick.number=5),
xlab="",
col=c("grey15","grey75","grey30","grey90","grey45","grey0","grey60","grey100"),
#col=c(grey(100:1/100), grey(50:1/100), grey(0:1/100)),
stack=T)
Unfortunately, in the first two periods there are much less data, hence the
bars are much shorter in those two panels and most of the space is unused,
as the axis still run to 150 as for the last panel. Does anyone know how to
cut the x-axis for the first two panels at, say, 50, while leaving it for
the third panel as it is? Google and looking through old conversations here
didn't help me, so I'm not quite sure whether this is possible at all.
Thanks and best,
Florian

Hi, set scales=list(x=list(relation='free')) may help.

Thanks a lot for your help!
I found that the relation="free" command was very helpful, but then I
had a
little space between the axis and where the bars actually begun. I tried to
deal with it in a panel function but was unable to do so. However, I found a
way providing a list to xlim:
barchart(country ~ new + cdmcarbonmarkets + energy +
aviationmaritimetransport + forestry|period, data=graph5,
as.table=T,
layout=c(3,1),
par.strip.text=list(cex=1.5),
* xlim=list(c(.7,10),c(.8,12),c(8,130)),
scales = list(alternating = 3,
cex=1.2,x=list(relation="free")),*
xlab="",
col=c("grey25","grey75","grey0","grey100","grey50"),
stack=T)
Oddly enough, I had to play around with the initial value to make the gap go
away. The above code now produces exactly what I want (i.e. the bar start at
0 and have the right length). I do not really know why this is the case
though. I would have expected the bars to be too short???
Still, I am happy with the result and thank you again for you help
