similar to: Adding a symbol/value/overlay to a boxplot in R

Dear R users, I am new to R and I couldn't figure out how to solve the following problem: I am trying to put a legend below two plots using the code below. The legend appears in the second plot, but I want the legend to appear below the two plots in the center of the total chart. At the moment the graphic looks like this: http://i48.tinypic.com/2h2fvhf.jpg [code] layout(matrix(1:2, nrow=1))

hi, All: I need to overlay two boxplot, I played around with points() but found it does not seem to work with boxplot, it works fine with other. Is there a way to overlay two boxplot (using different color) in R? There was a thread talking about using ggplot package, however, I don't think there is a final solution... the answer give does not give overlay but a new plot. Thanks Hao

Dear Rexperts, I am trying to add a '+' identifying the mean in a boxplot using the following sizelist <- split(size, grp) centers <- boxplot(sizelist, style.bxp = "att", medpch = "o", ylab = "Prostate Volume (cm3)") points(centers, unlist(lapply(sizelist, mean)), pch = "+") But, I get error Error in xy.coords(x, y) :

I am trying to make a box plot and overlay it with a scatter plot from another data.frame. I was able to successfully create the boxplot, but when i tried using points(x~y...) the dots did not show up. example code aa<-(300,300,300,300,600,600,600,600,900,900,900,900) bb<-(13,12,14,11,56,44,34,75,22.,34,22,98,59,55,56) cc<-(13,12,14,11,56,44,34,75,22.,34,22,98,59,55,56)

I am very new to R so forgive me if this seems basic but I have done extensive searching and failed to come up with the answer for myself. I am trying to label a boxplot I have created with the values for the median, upper and lower quartiles and max and min values. I have been unable to do this or find anything on the net to say how it might be done. Is this possible and if so how? Regards,

hi all- i am creating a boxplot and would like to shift the x-axis tick marks (named 1:23) so that the ticks are in between the boxes and not centered in the middle of the boxes. i have searched the help files and google and have not found what i am looking for. does anyone know how to do this? thanks! s.heck University of Colorado, Boulder

v 2.0.1 (sooooh old!) on Win2k I think I know the answer to this but I can hope ... I have data for continuous variables (measures of residents) by a categorical variable in range (1,22), the units in which they live. I want to plot these data with a pair of boxplots one above another with same x-axis (1,22) using par(mfrow=c(2,1)) and then plotting first for the women then for the men.

Good Morning, I am trying to get side by side boxplots of two groups on the same variable. The last item under ?boxplot led me to some useful code. I use "boxwex" to make the boxes narrower, "at" to shift them over and "add" to draw them both on the same graph. Something along the lines of: attach(group1) boxplot(Y~X, col="blue", boxwex=.4,

Hello, I am new to R and currently have the following problem: I have successfully loaded my data in R which consists of two numeric columns (LI_F and female) and one character column (Strain). So far I can plot two different set of boxplots for each of the numeric columns plotted by the groups of the character column and the commands look like that: boxplot(LI_F~Strain, ylab="LI_F",

I have a data set with four columns and need to make boxplots from them. Data is as follows: tank Tanks Total cons_hat 1 a a4 5.651017 5.59 2 a a5 5.017499 5.29 3 a a6 4.894238 4.69 4 c c4 3.986347 3.40 5 c c5 4.099442 3.58 6 c c6 4.150522 3.64 7 h h4 5.187792 6.32 8 h h5 6.713422 6.44 9 h h6 5.168555

Hi Sorry for such an inane question - how do I control the order in which the boxes are plotted using boxplot() when I pass it a formula and a data.frame? It seems that the groups are plotted in alphabetical order... I want to change this.... Many thanks Mick

However, if I add one to each of the models, the problem is solved. I tried this

Dear R users, I'm trying to add a regression line on my boxplots (something like:boxplot(c(1:3),c(4:6),c(5:8))) But I can't see it. Please help !!! It's not a April fool's joke!!! Yan [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi The answer to this may be obvious, but it's got me floored. I'm unable to get boxplot.stats to work for me! My session looks something like this: > ia=read.table('/tmp/prueba.csv', header=TRUE, sep=",") > attach(ia) > boxplot.stats(X8weeks~Orden) Error in sort (na.last, decreasing, ...) : argument 1 is not a vector In addition: Warning

Hello all, I wrote a small function to add labels for outliers in a boxplot. This function will only work on a simple boxplot/formula command (e.g: something like boxplot(y~x)). Code + example follows in this e-mail. I'd be happy for any suggestions on how to improve this code, for example: - Handle boxplot.matrix (which shouldn't be too hard to do) - Handle cases of complex

I am using R 2.2.1 on a Windows 2000 PC. When I do a grid() after the boxplot it overprints the boxplot: > boxplot(count ~ spray, data = InsectSprays, col = "lightgray") > grid(nx=NA, ny=NULL) > if I try the panel.first > boxplot(count ~ spray, data = InsectSprays, col = "lightgray", + panel.first=grid(nx=NA, ny=NULL)) > I can see the grid flash

Hello, I have created two boxplots with following R code. There is one outlier in B group. The outlier is 33. But the all other data are between 0 to 4. How can I skip y-axis around 5 to 25, and expand 0-4 for this case. Also I want keep the outlier in my boxplot. I want my boxplot look like the second one, keep the outlier, and make an interrupt of y-axis from 5 to 25. Thanks, Jianghong

Hi: I have a question making side by side boxplot. My response is numeric and I want to make a side by side boxplot of it accroding to a factor vector. So, there are several boxplots on the same plot. Each boxplot is with respect to one level for a factor. The levels of the factor are some characters. When I make the plot, the boxplots are arranged according to the alphabetic order of the
