Hi
Im producing boxplots based on factors and rearranging them by median (This
is for a Geochemistry element). Im giving each boxplot a unique color based
on its level (factor) name.
Im trying to produce a look up list to produce these colors as the order of
the boxplots will change from element to element.
Here is by color lool up and boxplot code:
colors_list<-list("Dalradian Appin Group quartzite"="#FFFF00","Sperrins
Dalradian (position uncertain)"="#D7D79E",

boxplot(na.omit(C_pH$DATA.pH)~bymedian,axes=FALSE,horizontal=TRUE,col=unlist(colors_list),outwex=one,whisklty
= "solid",whisklwd=lwth,outcol= "black", outpch=dtsym, outcex=dtsize)
However it is not reading the colors based on the color_list given here.
Anyone know how to solve this?
Thanks for your help
