I have a problem with the ylabs in barplot. When I draw the bars horizontal the text for the y axis is not drawn horizontal too. The text remains vertical. How can I change that. Thank's for your advice. There is an example below. ##Example plot.new() jib <- data.frame(c(1:15),c(11:25),c(15:1),c(25:11)) colnames(jib) <-

Hi Luigi will this do barchart( D ~ A|E, DF, groups = C, stack = TRUE, horizontal = F, main = "Comparison of test results", xlab = "Count", col = c("yellow", "orange"), par.settings = list( strip.background = list(col="light grey"), superpose.polygon=list(col= c("yellow",

Dear all, I have made a barplot using lattice in which the bars are stacked horizontally. I would like to stack them vertically, but if I use the parameter 'horizontal = FALSE' I get the error: 'Error in FUN(X[[i]], ...) : invalid 'type' (character) of argument'. The problem I face is that, in drawing the bars vertically, the y variable becomes numeric rather than

Dear R users I would like to group my barplot graph (see example on the R help link). The proposed R code, adding individual bars to the plot, looks really overwhelming. My specific dataset just consists of five groups and three different levels within each groups (the individual bars). The .txt file is read as matrix (horizontal: group, vertical: levels). The R trellis barchart (function

Dear List, I need a barplot with vertical bars. Each bar should have a label. The problem is, that the labels are too long, so they overlap, or only every seccond label is displayed in the output. Here is a little syntax: dd <- c(100,110,90,105,95) barplot(dd,names.arg=c('Conduct Disorders','Attention Deficit', 'Eating Disorders',

Hello, R 2.3.0 Windows XP I have spent quite a bit of time trying to resolve my problem below, which included a R site search. The "vertical bars" syntax below produces a vertical bar chart with the values displayed above each bar. I want to cast this graphic horizontally, but I have not been able to arrive at a suitable outcome. The best I have been able to do, using the second block

Hi, I'm trying to recreate a sensitivity-specificity graph using the histbackback function. The only problem is that these graphs are typically drawn with vertical rather than horizontal bar plots (and the histbackback function only seems to work with horiz=TRUE argument, using "horiz=FALSE" doesn't work). Does anyone know if: 1) there's a different graphing function that

Hi everybody, well I'm trying to use barplot for the first time. I get a suitable graphic but I'm having a weird problem. My graphic is generated from a matrix with several species (rowNames) and two abundance columns. So each species will have two bars, and the species name should appear at left. Until now everything is Ok, but when a I plot it the species names (my labels) are cut by

I have a very standard barplot. My labels are too long to be printed horizontally under each bar, so I am using text to put the labels on a 45 degree slant. However, the labels are spaced more narrowly than the bars, so on an 8 vertical bar plot, the end of the eighth label is lined up with the seventh bar. Preferably I don't want to do every text label separately (I'm having this

I would like to create a barchart that has vertical instead of horizontal bars. My goal is something similar to Figure 6.10 (p. 166) in "The Basics of S and S-plus," except for the orientation of the bars. I don't think bwplot() or xyplot() will work. Any suggestions?

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]]

Hi all, I have a problem with a rather simple plot (which I have used several times) - barplot. I want to create a barplot, where no space is between the axis and the bars. Example: barplot(rnorm(10), space=0) creates a vertical axis at the left and bars. I want to skip the space between both. Thank you for your help. Daniel

Hi, I have a simple task I can't figure out. I'd like to take some measurements I made, e.g.: year (y-axis) 1 2 3 4 5 6 counts (x-axis) 10 10 20 30 40 50 And then, make a barplot with the x-axis ticks (representing the borders between years) between the bars. However, barplot seems to force you to make the x-axis arbitrary categories. I want it to be continuous (as in a

I'm using barplot with the following call: barplot(stat_data[[5]][,],axes=TRUE,axisnames=TRUE,axis.lty=1,xlab=xlab,ylab=ylab,beside=TRUE,las=1,font.lab=2,font.axis=1,legend.text=TRUE) On some data, the vertical axis does not cover the whole plot area and the last tick mark is smaller than the maximum value. I tried setting the ylim values but even with that, some plots are still not OK,

Dear listserv, Here is my latest formatting problem. I would like to rotate the x-axis labels by 45 degrees on a _barplot_. Apparently this is slightly different from the example given in the R FAQ, which is for rotating the x-axis labels on a scatterplot (http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#How-can-I-create-rotated-axis-labels_003f). I have adapted that code, as best I could, and

Dear R community, I have two questions concerning barplots that I struggle to resolve: 1) How can I break (interrupt) the x-axis (e.g.: have it display values from -100 to -90 and 90 to 100 only)? 2) I overlay two horizontal barplots: one with negative values only and one with positive values only: I would wish to mark the two datasets separately on the x-axis (or some other way). If I use

Hello! I promise I looked into help files before asking. Still cannot figure it out. I think it's because I am totally confused what packages use lettice, which use trellis, etc. Sections 1 and 2 below produce the data and the data to plot. My question is about barplot in Section 3. I am trying to: 1. add only horizontal gridlines and manipulate the type and color of that line. tck = 1 is not

I would like to make my horizontal barplot vertical axis labels perpendicular to the axis. I tried las=1, srt=90; I even tried yaxt='n' thinking I'd put the labels in using mtext, but the axis continued to be drawn. Can anyone help me with this? My barplot() statement looks like this: barplot(height=foo$rebint[o1], names=foo$Unit[o1], horiz=TRUE, col=mycolors[foo$type[o1]],

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

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
