Is there a place to find a list of the legal values for the coord_trans parameters. I spent a bunch of time searching the ggplot2 docs and r-help for same without success. I also made an attempt at looking at the code in R which also failed.

Hi Michael,

You could use aes(y = 1000 * myyvar) and coord_trans(trans_y = "inverse")

Hi Stephen,

Because coord_trans() does all the work of plotting the original values on the tranformed scale. See ?coord_trans. To quote: "The difference between transforming the scales and transforming the coordinate system is that scale transformation occurs BEFORE statistics, and coordinate transformation
afterwards."

# After
require(ggplot2)
data(diamonds)
# Three ways of doing transformating in ggplot:
# * by transforming the data
qplot(log10(carat), log10(price), data=diamonds)
# * by transforming the scales
qplot(carat, price, data=diamonds, log="xy")
qplot(carat, price, data=diamonds) + scale_x_log10() + scale_y_log10()
# * by transforming the coordinate system:
qplot(carat, price, data=diamonds) + coord_trans(x = "log10", y = "log10")

why not transform the y-data?

Hi,

Does anyone know how to do a coord_trans() in which the y-axis is
tranformed
into (for example) -1000/y?
