Yikes. On closer inspection this causes there to be a noticeable amount of overlap of the various vertical bars. Speccifically, it appears that the second overlaps the first, the third overlaps the second, etc. This is much more noteable for a data set with a smaller x-axis. Thanks again for any feedback. --- On Mon, 2/2/09, hadley wickham <h.wick...@gmail.com> wrote:

It would be nice if a small space could be added. You can do something like this: ggplot(diamonds, aes(x=price, fill=cut)) + geom_bar(position=position_dodge(width=400), binwidth=500) Hadley -- http://had.co.nz/ [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
