I`ve read all the manuals and still couln`t find what is the difference between the stacked and side-by-side barplots ? Could you explain me ? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello all, When using the 'barplot' function, how would one go about creating labels on the top of the bars corresponding to the actual frequency values (i.e., the height of the bar). For histograms, one can use the 'LABEL=T' parameter to this effect, but it is not available for barplot. Must one manually create such labels for a barplot (perhaps using mtext)? Thanks.

how to add value on the bar ploted by barplot()? and the axis label is too big, anyone know how to change their font , thanks -- Xiaogang Yang Sensorweb Research Laboratory http://sensorweb.vancouver.wsu.edu/ Washington State University Vancouver [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

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 ,

Hi R newbie here :) I need to plot 3 barplots in the same axis, something like | | _ _ _ | | | _ | | _ | | _ | _ | || | _ | || | _ | || | | | || || | | || || | | || || | -+----------------------------------------- | v1 v2 v3 Is there any documentation describing how to achieve that, and

Hi, a couple of simple graphics questions: 1. I have a little function that makes bar plots. Now I would like to limit the Y-axis outside this function (that means after calling the barplot() command) depending on the data to be plotted . Does anyone know how to do this ??? 2. When using barplot() and limiting the yAxis, R draws the bars below the x-axis. How can I avoid this problem ??

I'm trying to generate some plots for print publication and I'm having trouble getting them the way I want. I get a plot with a legend that overlaps the bars and looks bad. Also, I'm saving this as PDF file (whatever happened to the "png" function to save as PNG format, in r 1.4.1?) I've tried a number of things, which produce a number of questions. 1) it seems that the

Hello, r-help at r-project.orgbarplot(twcons.area, beside=T, col=c("green4", "blue", "red3", "gray"), xlab="estate", ylab="number of persons", ylim=c(0, 110), legend.text=c("treated", "mix", "untreated", "NA")) produces a barplot very fine. In addition, I'd like to get the

Colors are real nice, but the publication I'm preparing these barplots for permits only black and white. The Splus plot options ``dbangle'' (or plain ``angle'') and ``density'' (as on p. 65 of MASS 1st ed.) don't seem to be available in R. Is there another way to do this? I'm running R 1.1.0 on Linux (intel). Thanks.

Is the width= parameter in barplot() supposed to work? I couldn't get it to work in my plot, and even in the example, data(VADeaths, package = "base") barplot(VADeaths, width=rep(0.1, 4)) the plot looks identical regardless of what I put in for the width. I looked at the source for barplot() and it looks like it SHOULD work (but what do I know). Am I doing something wrong?

I have found a bug/feature with barplot that at least to me shows undesireable behaviour. When using barplot and plotting fewer groups/levels/factors(I am unsure what they are called) than the number of colors stated in a col statement, the colors wrap around such that the colors are not fixed to one group. This is mostly problematic when I make R figures using scripts, since I sometimes have

R Version 2.2.0 Platform: Windows When I use barplot but select a ylim value greater than zero, the graph is distorted. The bars extend below the bottom of the graph. For instance the command produces a problematic graph. barplot(c(200,300,250,350),ylim=c(150,400)) Any help would be appreciated. Paul [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello everyone! I need to include the confidence interval bar in a grouped barplot. I've found some options on the web, but none of them solved my problem. The question is: my barplot was created using vectors for each pair of bar and them combining them using cbind. I mean: a=c(10,15) b=c(20,24) c=c(21,23) ... hei=cbind(a,b,c) graph1=barplot(hei, beside=T,...) I've tried to include

Good morning, I've been dabbling in R, so my knowledge has quite a few holes in it. I'm hoping that this has a simple answer and just falls into one of those holes. I have a table of percentages that I want to display as a barchart. Groups 1-4 in columns and Variables 1-5 in rows, with the percentage of each group expressing interest in each variable in the cells. In Excel I just

Dear Gurus, Using R 2.4.1 on Windows XP I am generating stacked barplots of age-composition of fish populations (Y) over time (X). As there are many years, not every bars is labeled. When looking at the plot, it becomes difficult to associate labels with their bars. We have improved this a bit by using axis() to add a tickmark below each bar. Can anyone suggest a way to draw ticks ONLY

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 using barplot() to draw some barplots, with a matrix as the data so that multiple bars are drawn for each data point. I want to use the argument "beside=TRUE" to juxtapose the bars instead of stacking them. If I execute: barplot(data,names.arg=names,density=c(20,10),beside=FALSE) I get the expected behaviour i.e. the bottom part of the column is shaded 20 lines per inch, the

Hi, I have a particular barplot I would like to generate, but I am having trouble getting it to work. What I would like is in effect two barplots with stacked bars merged into one. For example, I have two samples (yoda1,yoda2) on which I measure whether two variables (var1,var2) are present or absent for a number of measurements on that sample. > var1 <- data.frame(yoda1=c(3,7),

Hi all, i'm fairly new to R and its graphing, but having unsuccessfully 'googled' and checked this forum to find answer to my problem, i'm posting my question here. I'm trying to plot stacked barplot. I have simple data that looks like this: bg ag 0.41 2.81 0.37 2.91 0.31 2.06 0.32 2.39 every row indicates a factor (1,2,3,4, see below in names.arg).
