Hey thanks Thierry! I learned two things here ... position="identity" AND x=dummy. Can I ask where you learned these things. I've read a lot of the online reference manual, "the book", other presentations of ggplot2 and don't recall seeing these, especially the x=dummy reference. Does this come

Hi Hadley First off, thanks for ggplot2 and everything that bringing it to life and sustaining it entails. I noticed the coord flip problem during my ggplot investigations. Is this something I can override by getting into the code? On the coord flipping problem I was thinking to grab the densit

Thierry 1. ggplot(mydata, aes(y = VALUE, x = SERIES)) + geom_boxplot() + facet_grid(.~ ID) creates a grid with three ID columns (ID1, ID2, ID3) and six SERIES columns within each ID column with two boxplots in each ID column (C10, C2) (C15, C4), (C20, C8). I was aiming for a grid with ID column

Thanks Thierry. But this leads to a couple more questions if you don't mind. 1. I tried to extend your example to a grid by the facet_grid command with the aim of getting a boxplot of VALUE according to two factors SERIES and ID. However whatever syntax I use give me an error. For example: ggpl

[R] ggplot2 boxplot confusion

2008-02-26 Thread Chris Friedl
Ultimately my aim is to get a plot of density faceted by 2 factors with a horizontal boxplot overlaid on each density plot in the grid to indicate summary stats. So I've been experimenting with creating boxplots and density plots. Here's some representative data. series = c('C2','C4','C8','C10','
