Hi and thanks. This unfortunately doesn't work because: "ggplot2 does not currently support free scales with a non-cartesian coord or coord_flip."

HI, You can get the plot in the same window, but the width seems to be a problem. stest<- read.table(text=" site year conc south 2001 5.3 south 2001 4.67 south 2001 4.98 south 2002 5.76 south 2002 5.93 north 2001 4.64 north 2001 6.32 north 2003 11.5 north 2003 6.3 north 2004 9.6 north 2004 56.11 north 2004 63.55 north 2004 61.35 north 2005 67.11 north 2006 39.17 north 2006 43.51 north 2006 76.21 north 2006 158.89 north 2006 122.27 ",sep="",header=T,stringsAsFactors=T) stest1<-stest stest1<- within(stest1,{year<- factor(year)}) ggplot(stest1, aes(x=year, y=conc)) + geom_boxplot(horizontal=TRUE)+ facet_wrap(~ site, ncol = 1, scales="free_x") + coord_flip()+scale_y_log10()+ theme_bw() + opts(strip.text.x = theme_text()) A.K. ----- Original Message ----- From: Niec <ggorczyn...@golder.com> To: r-help@r-project.org Cc: Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2013 1:13 PM Subject: Re: [R] How to drop unused factors in faceted R ggplot boxplot? Thank you, Jeff. I think I should have been more clear. I don't want to modify my data. I need to create a series of box plots for different sites (north and south in my example but there are many more) but I don't want empty rows in my plot - for years when data was not collected. I tried to make separate plots and join them with grid.arrange and it plots the layout I want but I can't get the boxes in all plots have uniform look (width), see the screenshot: <http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/file/n4656535/2013-01-24_0949.png> And thank you for pointing out the shortcomings of my posted data sample. I'll be better prepared next time. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/How-to-drop-unused-factors-in-faceted-R-ggplot-boxplot-tp4656480p4656535.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
