similar to: extending boxplot with space() argument?

I''d like to make the following changes (differences are from R1.0.1): boxplot.default() 1c1 < function (x, ..., range = 1.5, width = NULL, varwidth = FALSE, --- > function (x, ..., range = 1.5, width = NULL, varwidth = FALSE, boxwex=0.8, 37c37,38 < bxp(groups, width, varwidth = varwidth, notch = notch, --- > bxp(groups, width, varwidth = varwidth,

There seems to be a problem with partial matching of argument names in boxplot(), in respect of the "horizontal" argument. I don't recall seeing this issue discussed previously. My apologies if I am being redundant. (A scan of CRAN revealed that someone had experienced problems with the "horizontal" argument, but he was spelling it out in full, so that was a different

To use Ron Ziegler's famous phrase, that argument is "no longer operative". The code for the bxp function, which is what is called to actually do the plotting, has a section if (!is.null(width)) { if (length(width) != n | any(is.na(width)) | any(width <= 0)) stop("invalid boxplot widths") width <- 0.8 * width/max(width) } else if (varwidth) {

Hola, por mi parte doy por zanjado el tema. He llegado a la causa raíz de mi problema: falta de conocimiento de la forma en la que se debe usar la ayuda de las funciones de R y gracias a vuestra colaboración, ¡ya se cómo hacerlo :) !   Nuevamente,gracias a todos. Saludos,   Fernando   -- ____________________________________   Hola,   La misma función boxplot indica la existencia de estas

Full_Name: Steve Ellison Version: 2.4.1 OS: Windows, Linux Submission from: (NULL) (194.73.101.157) bxp() allows specifcation of box locations with at=, but neither adjusts xlim= to fit at nor does it respect xlim provided explicitly. This is because bxp() now includes explicit xlim as c(0.5, n+0.5), without checking for explicitly supplied xlim (or ylim if horizontal). This also prevents

Dear List, ? I am creating a boxplot with two subsets, very similar to the example by Roger Bivand at ?boxplot (reproduced below).? I am trying to change the labels on the x-axis to have one number to cover both subsets.? I can do this in other plots by using axis=FALSE followed by a separate axis() command.? I have also tried variations in the names= argument but can't get it to work.?

Hi Marc, Thanks for the response. Apologies for the lack of detail... I have used 'boxwex', 'at' and ylim, to place things nicely, except I know have some spare room at the end of the plot, which I would like to get rid of.... Your suggestion to use 'add' per the example is one I had not thought of. Does any one know of a simpler approach, to use add I'm need to

v 2.0.1 (sooooh old!) on Win2k I think I know the answer to this but I can hope ... I have data for continuous variables (measures of residents) by a categorical variable in range (1,22), the units in which they live. I want to plot these data with a pair of boxplots one above another with same x-axis (1,22) using par(mfrow=c(2,1)) and then plotting first for the women then for the men.

I'm graphing a series of boxplots of grouped data inside a function that passes the data.frame, the names vector, and a title vector. Because both the data subset changes with each successive pass through the function, occasionally the names vector turns up with only one group to plot. This is an expected result. However, when the names argument in boxplot has only a single name, it

Was there ever a convenient method provided to add boxplots to the current plot at specified x values? There was a question by Martin Maechler some time ago here, but I could seem to find any satisfactory resolution of it. I see that there is an add=T option to boxplot and bxp, but I don't see how to set the x-values. url: http://www.econ.uiuc.edu Roger Koenker email roger at

Hello, all. I have a somewhat embarrassing error, in that I cannot reliably reproduce it. I have sporadically experienced the error both on an SGI machine running Irix 6.5 and on a LinuxPPC machine. I have only seen this error using version 0.65.0. (I've been using versions since 0.61 or so.) The error message is in the subject line. Here's the traceback from the most recent

Hello, I'm currently using a boxplot to visualize data for three different models. As I have three models, I'm plotting three parallel boxplots for each factor. This works fine - what I need now is a line connecting the medians of each boxplot of each model. I want to do this in order to visualize the trend that one of the models exhibit. Basically, I want to plot a curve for each model

Boxplot and bxp seem to have changed behaviour a bit of late (R 2.4.1). Or maybe I am mis-remembering. An annoying feature is that while at=3:6 will work, there is no way of overriding the default xlim of 0.5 to n+0.5. That prevents plotting boxes on, for example, interval scales - a useful thing to do at times. I really can see no good reason for bxp to hard-core the xlim=c(0.5, n+0.5) in the

Dear R-core team, I think I found a small inconsistency in the boxplot function. I don't want to post it as a bug since I'm not sure this might be considered as one according to the FAQ --- and this is not a major problem. Don't hesitate to tell me if I'm wrong. If you try to do a boxplot on a matrix and set the "at" argument to some vector different from 1:n, n is the

Hi All, As a follow-on from the mail below, it is possible to have boxplots based on means and variance for more than one input, i.e., bxp(input1,input2,....) Thanks in Advance, Dermot ******** Previous Mail on this subject *********** >I have a couple more questions about boxplots.

Hello, I have created two boxplots with following R code. There is one outlier in B group. The outlier is 33. But the all other data are between 0 to 4. How can I skip y-axis around 5 to 25, and expand 0-4 for this case. Also I want keep the outlier in my boxplot. I want my boxplot look like the second one, keep the outlier, and make an interrupt of y-axis from 5 to 25. Thanks, Jianghong

Hi all, I would like to ask a question with regard to R graphics. I am currently trying to add data points in boxplots using points(). In my script, I add up boxplots three times using add=TRUE. I use points() every time I add boxplots, and I see data points. However, I see all data points are clustered at three specific points on x-axis; the locations of the data points are not overlapping with

Hello, I am trying to plot two sets of boxplots together. These are estimates of two experiments and?seven?factors. The results of the two experiments I want to plot as boxplots stacked to each other. Therefore I plot first the results of the first experiment; and next with the add option the second set of boxplots. The boxplots are plotted at 'at = 1:7 - 0.15 for the first experiment and

Thank you for your guys reply for my previous question. But I got one more question about the boxplot. With the code in the R-help: boxplot(len ~ dose, data = ToothGrowth, boxwex = 0.25, at = 1:3 - 0.2, subset = supp == "VC", col = "yellow", main = "Guinea Pigs' Tooth Growth", xlab = "Vitamin C dose mg", ylab =
