similar to: boxplot: auto sizing for ylim variable

Greetings, I am trying to add a boxplot to the bottom of a histogram, right between the histogram bars and the x axis. Here is the code I am using at the moment (the par line is probably not relevant for our discussion): hs <- hist(x, breaks = 20, plot = F) par(mar = c(3,3,2,1)) hist(x, breaks = 20, main = NULL, ylim = c(-2, max(hs$counts))) boxplot(x, horizontal = T, axes = T, add =

Readers, For a command: x<-a data matrix y<-another data matrix z<-and another data matrix boxplot(c(x,y,z),las=1,xaxt="n",ylab="text",xlab="text",ylim=c(0,..?)) is it possible to specify only that the boxplot graph starts with value 0 at the bottom of the ordinate (y axis) and the maximum value is determined by data in x,y and z? Yours, rhelp at

Hi there, I get a strange behaviour of a boxplot with the following code. There seems to be a problem with the xlim-parameter. Did I do anything wrong? What else can I do to force the boxplot to have a defined x-range? x <- rnorm(100) boxplot(x, notch=TRUE, xlab=parameter, xlim <- c(-4,4), horizontal = TRUE) Antje

Full_Name: Bob O'Hara Version: 2.6.0 OS: Windows XP Submission from: (NULL) (88.112.20.250) Using horizontal=TRUE with boxplot() confuses it as to what is an x- or y-axis. At least, xlim= and ylim= are the wrong way round, log="x" (or "y") and xaxt= work as expected, I haven't looked at anything else. Some code to see if you can reproduce the bug (or discover

I have some code as shown below. Basically, I would like three boxplots to be set next to each other with no ylabels on the two "inner" plots, and I want the same x axis range on all three. However, it seems like boxplot does not respect the xlim setting. I've tried the various ways I thought would work (par, boxplot(...xlim=)) but none of them seem to work. I then tried plot.window,

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

Hi, I managed to use the attached data set and figure out the following: flies <- read.table("example12_1.dat",header=TRUE,sep="\t") boxplot(long ~ group, data = flies, horizontal = TRUE, col = "red") I'm very new to R and would like some help with the following: 1. Change the order on the y-axis from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 to 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

Hello r-devel, I have data.frame with 3 columns and I would like to group by 1 column(id), find the max of the third column (date) and return the data for that max date value along with the id and the value in the second column. Example: >dat <- data.frame(id = rep(1:3, 3), date = as.Date(rep(c("2005-08-25", "2005-08-26", "2005-08-29"), each = 3)), decod =

Dear all, I am a total beginner in R, so sorry if this is the wrong place. I am using R 2.10.1 on a Mac (Mac OS 10.6.2). I have this small dataset : growth sugar 75 C 72 C 73 C 61 F 67 F 64 F 62 S 63 S I have no problem reading the table, or getting the summary, but if I try boxplot(growth~sugar, ylab="growth", xlab="sugar", data=Dataset), I have the following error :

Dear All, I have created a barchart, but the legend created by auto.key does not match the actual graph. Can someone give me some hint here? For example, my coding are: Library(lattice) dataset.table <- table(data.frame(id=c("a","b","c","a","c","b","a"),colour=c("blue","green","

Hi, All, I am trying to use R to make the following type of boxplot while I couldn't find a way to do it. My dataset looks like X1 Y1 X2 Y2.... SPLIT. The split highlights my experiment details and both x and y are continuous numerical values. I need to plot y vs. x with split as legend and boxplot has to be used for all splits. May I ask how to get it? Currently available boxplot only

I want to leave a little extra room at the bottom for a legend in a box plot, but I find that the boxplot function ignores ylim. Is there any way around this? Thanks. ______________________________________________________________________ Stuart Luppescu -=-=- University of Chicago $(B:MJ8$HCRF`H~$NIc(B -=-=- s-luppescu at uchicago.edu

Hi, I want to add boxplots to a scatterplot: plot(x,y, xlim=c(80,120),ylim=c(80,120)) boxplot(y,add=TRUE,at=118) boxplot(x,add=TRUE,at=118,horizontal=TRUE) How can I control the width of the boxes (say, I'd like them to be of width 3 in the variables' scales). I've tried the "width" parameter but failed. Thanks in advance, Marcin

My box plot below is drawing its upper whisker all the way to the last point, instead of showing the point as an outlier. Am I misunderstanding, or is it a bug? Help(boxplot) states for the parameter ?range? that ?this determines how far the plot whiskers extend out from the box. If range is positive, the whiskers extend to the most extreme data point which is no more than range times the

Hi all, I'm a newbie with R and with a very basic question. Can I define the minor unit for ylim? For example, I have a y scale ranging from 1 to 14, jumping automatically every 2 units, but I want it to jump 1 unit at a time...is it possible? I tried something like >boxplot(bla[,1], xlim=c(1,15,1) and it didn't obbey... :( any suggestion?? Cheers from Portugal! Patrícia -- View

Hi, I am new to R and am still trying to get a grip of it. I have data in this format: Run Lab Batch Y 1 1 1 1 608.781 2 2 1 2 569.670 3 3 1 1 689.556 4 4 1 2 747.541 5 5 1 1 618.134 6 6 1 2 612.182 7 7 1 1 680.203 8 8 1 2 607.766 9 9 1 1 726.232 and I want to make a boxplot of the Y values for each

#Example: y <- rnorm(10) group <- gl(2,5) plot(y ~ group, horizontal = TRUE) # BUG: default xlab & ylab interchanged plot(y ~ group, horizontal = FALSE) # OK: supplies correct default xlab & ylab # Using boxplot() instead of plot() omits default axis labels altogether # (not sure if this is intentional): boxplot(y ~ group, horizontal = FALSE) # no default axis labels supplied

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

Hola a todos, Tengo una pregunta: ¿cómo puedo forzar para que el eje de ordenadas de estos dos boxplot esté por ejemplo entre -10 y 10? He consultado la ayuda de la función pero no he sabido cómo hacerlo.  a<-rnorm(1:100) boxplot(a) b<-rnorm(2,1:100) boxplot(b) Disculpad si la pregunta es muy básica. Ojo: no quiero juntar los dos gráficos en un solo boxplot, sino que su rango del eje

I have the following code: subsetTimeDataPlot <- boxplot(subsetTimeData$time ~ subsetTimeData$build, horizontal=True, col="lightblue", ...) The 'names' component consists of strings that can be up to 20-30 characters long. How would I go about drawing the names vertically (not the boxplot) or shrinking the names text (I tried cex.names=0.7 but this didn't help).
