Hi, I'd like to construct a somewhat unusual barplot. In "barplot" I use beside=F as I'd like to have stacked bars. The height of each bar is always the same. Information in my plot is coded in the color of the bar. I therefore need to be able so assign a different combination (or order) of colors to each individual stacked bar.
In the example below, the combination of colors for my plot is generated by X, Q, color and cols. These colors are supposed to fill the stacked bars with the height of H. However, only the first column of cols is used for all columns of H as "barplot" only allows me to assign one vector for the color scheme of the entire barplot. Does anybody know a way how I can assign each bar a potentially unique color combination? Thanks for your help! Kim X <- seq(1:6) Q <- matrix(sample(X, 60, replace = T), nrow=6, byrow = T) H <- matrix(rep(1,60), nrow=6, byrow=T) color <- c("blue", "orange", "gold", "indianred", "skyblue4", "lightblue") cols <- ifelse( (Q ==1) , color[1], ifelse( (Q ==2), color[2], ifelse( (Q ==3) , color[3], ifelse( (Q ==4), color[4], ifelse( (Q ==5) , color[5], color[6] ) ) ) ) ) barplot( H, col=cols, width = c(0.1), xlim = c(0,3), beside=F ) __________________________________________ Kim Milferstedt University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering 4125 Newmark Civil Engineering Laboratory 205 North Mathews Avenue MC-250 Urbana, IL 61801 USA phone: (001) 217 333-9663 fax: (001) 217 333-6968 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://cee.uiuc.edu/research/morgenroth ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
