My question is based on an example provided in the following: Referencing: Statistics with R Vincent Zoonekynd <zoo...@math.jussieu.fr> 6th January 2007
URL: http://zoonek2.free.fr/UNIX/48_R/all.html data(HairEyeColor) a <- as.table( apply(HairEyeColor, c(1,2), sum) ) # Provided Example barplot(a, beside = TRUE, legend.text = attr(a, "dimnames")$Hair) # I would like to make the labels on the x-axis diagonal, so I tried the following: barplot_reference<-barplot(a, beside = TRUE, legend.text = attr(a, "dimnames")$Hair, xaxt = "n", xlab = "") text(barplot_reference, par("usr")[3] - 0.09, srt = 45, adj = 1, labels = as.character(colnames(a)), xpd = TRUE, offset = 1, col = "black") # The labels are diagonal, but unfortunately the eye color labels are now applied to every bar and then repeat. # Is there any way to correct this problem, so that the diagonal labels are only the following: Brown, Blue, Hazel, Green # Those labels should not be repeated, so any help and insight is greatly appreciated. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org 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.
