Dear all,
I have a 2 by 2 matrix and I would like to do a barplot with it. (so 2 bars
with each having 2 stacks.). I would like to have one colors per stack, so 4
different colors total.
The problem is that R is only given me 2 colors (the same two for the bottom
stack and the same two for
Hello,
According to the code in file src/R/graphics/barplot.R, barplot() will
draw column by column, and threfore use as many colors as rows in the
matrix. Those colors will be reused for all bars. So I'm not seeing an
easy way of doing what you want using base graphics. Not without
changing

Hello,
I forgot to add that if you use argument beside = TRUE, you can have as

You will have to trick barplot into thinking you have four groups:

Hi Rui,
Thanks for trying. I know about the beside. The reason I want them stack with
various colors is that the 4 stacks represent the number of students on each
quartiles on a test.
Have a terrific Tuesday!

Hi,
In barplot(height, col = ...), the col = vector recycles so that the
same colors are used for each bar. I would like to use different colors
in different bars (corresponding to another piece of information, here,
the region of the country being represented).
For example,
x =
Hi Jim,
In most cases, I would highly recommend an alternative to a stacked
bar plot (only 4 numbers are communicated, but an entire plot is
filled). Depending on the data and your goals, simple points or lines
offer easy alternatives. I have also been able to get a lot of
mileage out of
