Hello all

Please ignore this last post as I now realize it is because the stacked components are summed, as they should be. I needed the columns to be stacked but not summed so just plotted the two series separately with add=T

Sorry...

Subject: Stacked bar plot anomaly When column contains a negative and a positive value

Hello users,

I've noticed a problem when creating a stacked column plot when a column contains a negative and a positive value. e.g.

series1<-c(-1,-2, 3, 4, 5)
series2<-c( 5, -4,-3,-2, 1)
data<-rbind(series1,series2)
barplot(as.matrix(data), beside=FALSE)


In these cases (i.e. first, third and fifth columns) the plotting is not handled correctly. Compare this output with that of:


barplot(as.matrix(data), beside=TRUE)


Shouldn't the plots look the same except in the beside=FALSE scenario the constituent bars should not be juxtaposed but instead are one on top of the other?

Thanks for any advice!

Murray Richardson
