Hi, this is likely very easy to do but I don't find the right terms to search for the solution. I want to show in a bar chart how much different categories deviate from the average percentage change. Thus, in the following example I would like to set the zero line or base or whatever it is called to the average of the values (=0.82) and the bars should show the deviation from that, i.e. have the positive length of the deviation of the value from the average. I can do that by subtracting the average from each value but I would like to have the zero line as the average to make it more clear. How do you change the 'base'-line?
x <- data.frame(val=c(1.5, 3, -1.4, -1, 2), lab=letters[1:5]) ggplot(data=x, aes(x=lab, y=val)) + geom_bar(stat="identity") Many thanks for your help!
