Dear List, I want to draw a Sankey-diagramm in R, for which I would use the riverplot package. It would be really nice to be able to 1. draw vertical lines (="edges") between nodes on the same x-axis (T03-T04 in the example below) and 2. to invert the plot. Now the "edge" between T03 and T04 is straight, but not vertical (1.). I could invert the plot manually after drawing it, but there could most likely be a more elegant solution (2.). Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you, Christian library(riverplot) trplot <- function () { ret <- list(nodes = data.frame(ID = c("T01","T02","T03","T04"), x = c(1,2,3,3), labels = c("T1","T2","T3","T4"), stringsAsFactors = FALSE), styles = list(T01 = list(col = "red",lty = 0, textcol = "white"), T02 = list(col = "blue",lty = 0, textcol = "white"), T03 = list(col = "green",lty = 0, textcol = "white"), T04 = list(col = "cyan",lty = 0, textcol "white"))) ret$edges <- data.frame(stringsAsFactors = FALSE, N1 = c("T01","T02","T03"), N2 = c("T03","T03","T04"), Value=c(5,5,12)) rownames(ret$nodes) <- ret$nodes$ID class(ret) <- c(class(ret), "riverplot") return(ret) } style2 <- default.style() style2[["edgestyle"]] <- "straight" riverplot(trplot(),default_style=style2)
