useRs, Don't know if this requires a bug report, but using the read.spss function on files written by the new SPSS 12.0 produces the following warning message: Warning message: C:\data\spss.sav: Unrecognized record type 7, subtype 13 encountered in system file. The data files appear to be read correctly. The warning likely results from changes to the file format due to SPSS increasing

I've started a "tribe" for discussing R and sharing scripts. Tribe.net is one of the popular on-line social communities, like "Friendster". Visit and see if it is a forum that you find useful. To join the "tribe" you will need to register with Tribe.net. I hope it will be of help to newbies, although I'm new to R myself. Here is the url:

I'm plotting obesity rates (y-axis) vs Public Health Unit (x-axis) for the province of Ontario and would like to have the Public Health Unit names appear vertically rather than the default, horizontally. I'm actually using the 'barplot2' function in the {gregmisc} library ... I haven't been able to find a solution in either the barplot2 options or the general plotting

Hello, I get a nice looking barplot using the barplot2 function in the gregmisc package: body2 <- barplot2(hh3, beside = TRUE, col = c("mistyrose", "lightcyan"), .... cex.names = 1.0, plot.ci = TRUE, ci.l = cil, ci.u = ciu, plot.grid = TRUE) box() However, obviously I lose the collors when converting from ps to a pdf (outside of R)

Hi How do I install "gregmisc" packages? I did- % sudo R > install.packages("gregmisc") . . > barplot2() but, Error: couldn't find function "barplot2" -- atuya Mac OSX 10.2.6 R 1.7.1

I've just uploaded gregmisc 0.8.6 to CRAN, it should show up in the package tree shortly. It contains both an enhanced barplot() [named barplot2 in my code] and an enhanced heatmap() function that I would like to see propagate to the base and mva packages respectively. I've checked the code for both functions against the code in R 1.8.1, and these functions have all of the latest

R-Users, I am working with gplots (in gregmisc bundle) plotting some posterior probabilities (using barplot2) of harvest bag limits for discrete data (x-axis from 0 to 12, data is counts) and I ran into a couple of questions whose solutions have evaded me. 1) When I create and include the confidence intervals, the lower bound of the confidence intervals for several of the posterior probabilities

I would like to preface this by saying that I have not been using R for long, and consider myself a beginner. But the more I use and learn R, the more impressed I am with both the 'product' itself, and the efforts of those developing it. It has been noted (eg Duncan Murdoch, 15 April), that the barplot function in R 1.9.0, when used on a tabulated single factor, produces a plot only one

I am using barplot, and barplot2 in the gregmisc bundle, in the following way: barplot2(sort(xtabs(expend / 1000 ~ theme)), col = c(mdg7, mdg8, mdg3, mdg1), horiz = T, las = 1, xlab = "$ '000", plot.grid = T) The problem is that the values of 'theme', which is a factor, are in some cases rather long, so that I would like to wrap/split them at a space once they

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 R graphics gurus, Another question about lattice graphics. This time I would like to plot means and confidence intervals by group factor in a lattice graph. I can not find any working lattice examples. Maybe a custom panel function is the answer, but that is a bit beyond me for now. The individual plots within the lattice graph could look like this: # Example with confidence intervals

Hi All, I'd like to see the function code behind the barplots2() function in the gplots package, however i come across a bit of a stumbling block of a hidden function, can anyone help? > library(gplots) > methods(barplot2) [1] barplot2.default* Non-visible functions are asterisked > barplot2 function (height, ...) UseMethod("barplot2") <environment:

R 2.4.0 for Windows The following plot appears as a squared window (as all r-plots) Not all subtitles are visible, but all subtitle will appear, when changing the aspect ratio of the plot window with the mouse to a wide format. But does not work when using the save as postscript menu item from the plot window. is there any solution for that? opar <- par(mfrow = c(2,2), oma = c(0, 0, 1.1,

Dear R Users, (and dear Marc) First of all many thanks for the answers to my previous questions. I would like to barplot the mean percent change of a variate with it's CI. Bars should start from the zero reference line to height (in barplot2). Is there a way to tweak barplot2, for example, to do that ? I have tried to see what the function was but unlike other functions was not able to

I'm using R 2.8.1 on Ubuntu 8.10. I'm writing partly to ask what's wrong, partly to tell other users who search that there is a work around. The General Social Survey is a long standing series of surveys provided by NORC (National Opinion Research Center). I have downloaded some years of the survey data in SPSS format (here's the site:

Version 0.8.0 of the gregmisc package is now (or will shortly be) available on CRAN. New in this release: - Enhanced and bug-fixed 'CrossTable' function (contributed by Marc Schwartz) - Augmented the 'barplot2' function with an 'add' argument to allow for the addition of a barplot to an existing graphic. (contributed by Marc Schwartz) - Added the

SPSS seems to have changed its default datafile format, resulting in issues for read.spss(). In Windows this results in a warning, in Debian the import completely fails: Debian (R version 2.8.0 (2008-10-20) i486-pc-linux-gnu, foreign_0.8-29) > read.spss("/home/jeroen/samples/Tomato.sav") Error in iconv(names(rval), cp, "") : unsupported conversion from 'CP65001'
