Dear List, I know this has been covered before, but I don't seem to be able to get it right. I am constructing a boxplot in lattice and can't get the scales in the correct alphebetical order. I have already read that this is due to the way factors are treated, and I have to redefine the levels of the factors. However, I have failed. As a simple example:
library(lattice) id<-rep(letters[1:9], each=20) x<-rep(seq(1:10),each=18) y<-rnorm(180,50,20) #Reverse alphebetical order bwplot(y~x|id, horizontal=FALSE) #alphebetical order reading right to left id<-factor(id,levels = sort(id,decreasing = TRUE)) bwplot(y~x|id, horizontal=FALSE) It appears that bwplot plots scales from the bottom left to the top right. If so my factor levels would need to be levels=c(7,8,9,4,5,6,1,2,3). I tried that but can't seem to get the factor function to work. #Did not work! id<-factor(id,levels=c(7,8,9,4,5,6,1,2,3),lables=letters[1:9]) Your help would be greatly appreciated.
