similar to: legend over-prints barplot bar

I would like to create a family of barplots with the same xlimits. Is there a way to "read" the xlimits from the first graph so I can apply it to the subsequent ones? I have tried just taking the min and max of the x data and the plot doesn't show. cheers [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Thanks to those who pointed me at the solutions to the legend overprinting the bars. I took the "easy" way of rescaling the y axis, picking the scaling factor for stacked bars is somewhat problematic but sufficient for my application. I have another couple of barplot questions: - Can I extend the major ticks on the Y axis across the page? Or both axes to form a grid? - A really

I'm trying to create a barplot that has two sets of data next to each other. I'm using barplot with the add=TRUE option, but this simply adds the second dataset on top of the first, obscuring it. How do I add the new data to the right on the existing barplot so that both sets are visible? I've been playing with all sorts of option and reading the list archives with no

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

Hi list, I've thus far not found a solution to my problem and hope someone can help. I have a data matrix and wish to plot a stacked bar plot using barplot(). This is simple enough, but I have a problem with the legend labels being in the reverse order from what I want. The default appears to have labels ascending bottom-to-top reflecting bottom-to-top sub-bars, but I would like the

Dear useRs, I'm trying to create a barplot like so: x=matrix(1:10,2,5) barplot(x,leg=c("left","right"),besid=T) The legend is placed in default position topright, however the data are plotted there too. I tried controlling the legend position by adding x="topleft" but this results in an error that x matches multiple formal arguments. Leaving out the legend

Dear R-people, are there any way to change the size of legend in barplot? I have tried various versions of cex, both as par(cex.*= ) and barplot(..., cex.*= ). So long without success. Sincerely, Ott > version _ platform i686-pc-linux-gnu arch i686 os linux-gnu system i686, linux-gnu status major 1

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

Hi all! One quick question: How do I get the standard colors used by barplot? I have some stacked bars and would like to add a horizontal legend via legend() but I don't know how to find the colors for the fills of the legend points. Thanks! Werner

Hi, R users, I there a way that I can control the position of the legend while using "barplot" function? For example: a<-matrix(c(0,0,0.5,0.8,0.9,0.9),2,3) colnames(a)<-c("X","Y","Z") rownames(a)<-c("A","B") a barplot(a,width = 0.2,legend = TRUE,axes=FALSE,col=c("coral3","steelblue3"),beside=TRUE) In this

Hi All, I produced a barplot and made a horizontal legend below the graph. Because the results are from a survey, there are three levels, namely strongly disagree/disagree, neutral and strongly agree/agree. > rownames(survey)[1] "Strongly disagree/disagree" "Neutral" "Strongly agree/agree" As in the output above, there is a large space

I have a simple barplot of 4 mean values, each mean value has an associated 95% confidence interval drawn on the plot as an error bar. I want to make a legend on the plot that uses the error bar symbol, and explains "95% C.I." How do I show the error bar symbol in the legend? I could not find any "pch" values that are appropriate Thanks [[alternative HTML version

Dear R Users, I'm able to display a legend using the following code: > legend("topright", c("Simulation", "Observation"), fill=2:3, bty="n") However, this causes the legend to be positioned too close to the bars in my barplot. I'd like to move the legend up slightly. I have been trying to determine the necessary values by trial and error to do

dear r-helpers, i have got another question: i am using the functions par(xpd=T) legend to create a legend below the x-axis. i used the parameter horiz=T. now i would like to put the elements of the legend in two rows: e.g. if my legend has got 5 elements, i would like 3 elements in one row and the last two elements in the next row. does anyone know how to do that? thank you very much for

I suspect there is a simple solution to this problem, but have been unable to find it. Below is some code that I have run to create 3 lattice graphs. I have been asked to change the legend so that the 'No' and dark blue are above "Y" and light blue in the legend to mirror the stacked bars in the graph which feature dark blue above light blue. I have tried changing the data

My question is based on an example provided in the following: Referencing: Statistics with R Vincent Zoonekynd <zoonek at math.jussieu.fr> 6th January 2007 URL: http://zoonek2.free.fr/UNIX/48_R/all.html data(HairEyeColor) a <- as.table( apply(HairEyeColor, c(1,2), sum) ) # Provided Example barplot(a, beside = TRUE, legend.text = attr(a, "dimnames")$Hair) # I

What should findInterval(x,vec,all.inside=TRUE) return when length(vec)<=1, so there are no inside intervals? R-3.3.0 gives a decreasing map of x->output when length(vec)==1 and -1's when length(vec)==0. Would '0' in all those cases be better? > findInterval(x=c(10, 11, 12), vec=11, all.inside=TRUE, rightmost.closed=FALSE, left.open=FALSE) [1] 1 0 0 >

Hello, I try to make barplots with rather wide labels. A simplified example of this: x <- c(12, 33, 56, 67, 15, 66) names(x) <- c('Richard with a long surname','Minnie with a long name,'Albert','Helen','Joe','Kingston') barplot(x, las = 2) Now the label 'Richard with a long surname' is too long to fit beneath the bars. A simple solution

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

Hi all, I am trying to do a barplot in ggplot2 and want to make sure that the legend order is consistent with the bar order, that is the legend order is orig and match; and the bars are ordered in the same way. It seems to me that I can only control one of them. Any idea? library(ggplot2) df <- data.frame(value = rnorm(20), name = factor(rep(letters[1:10], 2), levels =
