similar to: how to suppress whiskers in a bwplot?

Dear R-community, Using bwplot, how can I put the whiskers at percentile 5 and percentile 95, in place of the default position coef=1.5?? Using panel=panel.bwstrip, whiskerpos=0.05, from the package agsemisc gives satisfaction, but changes the appearance of my boxplot and works with an old version of R, what I don’t want, and I didn’t find the option in box.umbrella parameters Many thanks

Hi List, Just wondering where the documentation exists for the statistics which makeup the bwplot. I'm guessing that if R is like similar products that the graph is constructed as The median is the filled circle. The box surrounding the filled circle depicts the 25th and 75th quartile. The range of values is given by the dotted lines (?whiskers?) outside of each box, and possible

Hi, I'm trying to produce colored boxplots using lattice::bwplot function. I need to plot each boxplot in the panel with a specific color. Naturally I used a vector of colors and expected to see colored boxplots. Although the boxplots were colored, the color of whiskers and the boxes do not match. Here is an example: d = data.frame(y = rnorm(100), x=1:4) box.color <-

Try factor(vec2) in your bwplot() call. -----Original Message----- From: r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch [mailto:r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch]On Behalf Of Ernesto Jardim Sent: Friday, July 09, 2004 9:41 AM To: Mailing List R Subject: [R] Problem with bwplot Hi, I'm ploting some box-and-whisker plots with bwplot but I'm not getting any box-and-whiskers ... just dots.

In a Box and Whisker plot, I thought that when there are outliers both abov= e and below the whiskers, then the whiskers should both be the same length = (plus or minus 1.5 times the inter-quartile range). If you look at the plot for SilwoodWeather on p.155 of The R Book you will = see that for November (month =3D 11) the upper whisker is shorter than the = lower, while for other months with

Good Afternoon- I was wanting to alter the boxplot to remove the lower whisker, both the whisker line and staple just on the lower end. Is there a way to do this? As my code is currently: boxplot(log_loads~ind,data=nfmaum, horizontal=TRUE, notch=T, outline=FALSE, whisker=0, main="Maumee River Near Future Climate Scenarios", ylab="Log Load",xlab="Climate Scenarios")

How are the lower/upper whiskers defined in the default version of boxplot {graphics}? I tried help(boxplot) and searching www.rseek.org, but I was unable to determine an absolute answer. I checked out the definition of boxplot according to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_plot), but it also had several approaches listed for how the whiskers could be determined, so I'm just

Dear R users, I have question concerning box plot and it's whiskers. As I understood from the description of the boxplot() function, if the range value is positive the plot whiskers extend out from the box to the most extreme data points defined by the values of the IQR times range (default 1.5). It suggests that the upper and lower plot whiskers should be more less the same length. What

Hello, I'm using bwplot to make a few plots. The plots are exactly what I need, but are coming out with a grey background and turquoise boxes and whiskers. I cannot figure out how to just get black and white to be the default. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks Kenneth E. Nussear Phone 775 784-1703 Ecology, Evolution and FAX 775 784-1369

Hello This is Elaine. I am using package lattice to generate boxplots. Using Richard's code, the display was almost perfect except the outlier shape. Based on the following code, the outliers are vertical lines. However, I want the outliers to be empty circles. Please kindly help how to modify the code to change the outlier shapes. Thank you. code package (lattice) dataN <-

Hi - I have two response variables 'y1' and 'y2' and a factor 'x'. I would like to create paired box-whiskers plots for y1~x and y2~x and labeled for the same x. the b-w plots would be side-by-side in the same panel - almost like a barchart with two parallel columns for the same x. the code 'bwplot(y1+y2~x, outer=T)' gives me two side-by-side panels. this is ok,

Another naive stats question. I'm trying to better understand what boxplots are telling me. I think what I see is the median and the boundaries of the 1st and 3rd quartiles. The whiskers represent the range of the data unless there are points which are outside "range" (default: 1.5) times the distance from the median to that quartile. Is that right? I've read the

Dear All, is any way I can change the colours of the box and umbrella of a bwplot without having to go to the length of: box.rectangle<-trellis.par.get("box.rectangle") box.rectangle$col<-"black" trellis.par.set("box.rectangle", box.rectangle) etc... but straight from the call: bwplot(y ~ x | z, mydata) ?

Searched for this and found some help, but I still can't figure it out. I have trying to enlarge the x and y labels on my box plot. I understand that you can do this using "cex.lab", but it does not seem to be working for me. I must be adding it in the wrong spot. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is my code: bwplot(hr~Herd, data=telemetry, notch=T, ylab="Home

Hello to all users and wizards. I am regulary using 'boxplot' function or its analogue - 'bwplot' from the 'lattice' library. But they are, as far as I understand, totally flawed in functionality: they miss ability to select what they would draw 'in the middle' - median, mean. What the box means - standard error, 90% or something else. What the whiskers mean -

I've managed to find how to change trellis.settings$box.rectangle$col and trellis.settings$box.umbrella$col but I can't figure out how to change the colour of the point used to indicate outliers. There doesn't seem to be a general colour. What am I overlooking? best -- ************************************************************* ___ Patrick Connolly {~._.~}
