Hi, I am plotting a distribution of (ordered) values as a barplot. I would like to label groups of bars together to highlight aspects of the distribution. The label for the group should be the range of values in those bars. As this is hard to describe, here is an example; x <- rlnorm(50)*2 barplot(sort(x,decreasing=T)) y <- quantile(x, seq(0, 1, 0.2)) y plot(diff(y)) That last

This has been asked before, but all the answers are hidiously complex. The legend.text=TRUE option of barplot is almost exactly what I need, except I need a legend.placement='tl' (top left) option. This option would be in contrast to the default placement which we could call 'tr' (top right). Anyone know how to edit the barplot code to make this change? Could someone like me

The following single line of code shows what I am trying to do, and the problem I am having... barplot(c(101,102,103),ylim=c(100,103)) The 'xaxis' is missing, and the grey bars 'fall off' the plot area. This is generally ugly, and I would like to trim the bars (ideally they would have a ragged appearance to show that I am 'zooming in'). I can see why what I am trying to

I''m using standard barplot (Windows version 1.6.2 of R) to represent a certain weekly metric "v" and I would like to properly overlay on top of it its moving average "mean.8" (window of 8 weeks). I must be doing something wrong since the moving average (using "lines") doesn''t overlay properly, i.e., both x-scales do not match! ...

I want to include missing values in my barplot to get the correct x-axis, for example, x <- c(1,2,3,4, 9) y <- c(2,4,6,8,18) barplot(y) The above looks wrong because the last height in y should be a long way over. So I want to do something like... x <- c(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, 9) y <- c(2,4,6,8,0,0,0,0,18) barplot(y) However... I am actually using barplot2 to use the

Dear all As a new user of R, can someone please help me with the following I have created a programme to analyse laboratory data and one of the graphs is a bar plot of 'Z' scores. On the bar plot I am using the following line to plot some results barplot (zb[,c("ZBW")], ylim = c(-6,6), names.arg=zb[,c("LabNo")],xlab="Lab Code Number", cex.names = .5 ,

Hello. I am an R newbie struggling to learn and use R . I have read many portions of the R Reference Manual, as well as the FAQs. Given that I learn something new each time, I know I might be missing something obvious. But I appeal to your good nature to help me through this initial problem. I have attached a pdf file to demonstrate what I desire and have listed what my data looks like in

Should I be able to use axis() on a barplot? i have a data.frame, the first 3 values of which are: > c[1:3,] median mean A1 56.5 58.50000 A61 73.0 73.00000 A62 63.0 63.00000 > str(c) `data.frame': 19 obs. of 2 variables: $ median: num 56.5 73 63 161 51 55 44.5 22 54 49 ... $ mean : num 58.5 73.0 63.0 161.0 47.5 ... if I do barplot(median) and then try

Hello, I have got a simple "cosmetic" question. I have created a bar plot with confidence intervals using: barplot(mean, ylim = c(0,0.2), las = 3, space = 0) arrows(1:17 ,X95p_low, 1:17, X95p_high, length = 0.07, angle = 90, code = 3, lty = 1) Unfortunately, the confidence bars align with the right side of the bars and I would like to shift these to the middle of the bars. Is

Hello, I try to handle a simple bar-plot, but it turns out to be not as simple as I thought. 1) I have created a .dat-File, e.g. test.dat: DATA DATA-SEM 2.2 0.32 6.2 1.30 12.7 1.61 48.6 3.08 4.1 0.86 4.5 0.32 1.5 1.13 1.2 1.08 The first row is the data represented by bars. The second row deals with the Standard Error of Mean. The lines correspond to time-intervals of experiments. 2) I now

Full_Name: Dan B Version: na OS: na Submission from: (NULL) (80.6.127.185) I can't log into the bug tracker (I can't find where to register / login). In this way I can't add the following context diff (hopefully in the right order) for my changes to the matrix.Rd... Hmm... I guess this should be a separate report anyway... The first diff explains how the dimnames list should

Dear R users I would like to group my barplot graph (see example on the R help link). The proposed R code, adding individual bars to the plot, looks really overwhelming. My specific dataset just consists of five groups and three different levels within each groups (the individual bars). The .txt file is read as matrix (horizontal: group, vertical: levels). The R trellis barchart (function

Hi, Since I started to make some 'final' plots of my data I found that I have tons of questions related to 'the little things'. Rather than bother the list with all the questions (ahem), or search the archives for similar questions and translate the context, I would like to find a FAQ for plotting in particular (and R programming in general). I know for sure (searching the

I have a very standard barplot. My labels are too long to be printed horizontally under each bar, so I am using text to put the labels on a 45 degree slant. However, the labels are spaced more narrowly than the bars, so on an 8 vertical bar plot, the end of the eighth label is lined up with the seventh bar. Preferably I don't want to do every text label separately (I'm having this

Hi, I couldn't find how to have the values written on the top of each bar in a barplot. When using hist(), it is possible to use labels=T, but this option does not seem to exist for barplot(). Is there a trick I could use to do that ? Thanks to all Luc

How can i set a rotation for the names.arg in barplot?

Hello all, I have created a barplot that shows change in hardwood/softwood density from 1965 to 2005 in 5 year periods (1965,1970, etc). I would like to have an X-axis where the labels for the years line up after every two bars in the plot (there is one bar for hardwood, and another for softwood). Below is my script: density<-read.table("F:\\Megan\\Vtest.csv", header=TRUE,

Hi all, - how can I do a barplot with rotated axis labels? I've seen the example for just a plot in the FAQ, but I'll missing the coordinates to plot my text at the right position beneath the bars. Is there any (easy?) solution? - how can I set the y-axis in a barplot to logarithmic scale? Many thanks in advance! Best Regards Tom --

Hi, Is there any equivalent of type="n" when constructing barplots which will still construct the axes (plot=F, as it says doesn' plot anything at all). Alternatively I tried setting col="white" and border="white" but the border command does not seem to be operational. True?? Any other ideas? What I'm actually trying to do is construct vertical abline()'s

Hi I am trying to understand the "space" argument to barplot() and I think it is not working as stated. The docs say: space: the amount of space (as a fraction of the average bar width) left before each bar. Which means that I can pass a vector, the same length as the no. of bars, and the nth element of that vector will be the space left before the nth bar. This is
