Thanks a lot, Sundar. I experimented somewhat and here is the code
that works well - it allows me to modify most of the stuff I want to
modify:
p<-as.vector(c(0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4))
names(p)<-c("AAAAA","BBBBBB","CCCCCCCCCCCC","DDDDDDDD")
barchart(~sort(p), main=list("Chart Title",cex=1),xlab=list("X axis
title",cex=1),xlim=c(0,0.42),
layout = c(1,1),
stack = TRUE,
auto.key = list(points = FALSE, rectangles = TRUE, space =
"top"),
panel = function(y,x,...){
panel.grid(h = 0, v = -1, col = "gray60", lty ="dotted")
panel.barchart(x,y,col="brown")
panel.text(x,y,label = round(x,2),cex=1)
}
)
One last question: How can I modify the way the value labels (those
that are at the end of the bars) appear? Can I make them bold? Make
them appear a bit to the right or to the left of where they currently
are?
Thanks a lot!
