Re: [R] Plotting Time Series Data by Month
If you can wait a day or two, the next version (1.18) of the 'tis' package that I will put on CRAN very soon has a function called tierChart that does what you want with a 'tis' series. -- Jeff __ 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.
Re: [R] Plotting Time Series Data by Month
Sorry about that, new to posting here! Your code was extremely helpful, and tweaking it a bit gave me the output I was looking for: plot( rep(1:12, 17), pox, col = rep(1:17, each = 12), xaxt = n, ylab=Reported Cases,xlab = Months, pch = 20, main=Monthly Trends of Chickenpox) axis(1, at = 1:12, labels = month.abb, padj = 0) legend(8, 28000,c(1993, 1994,1995,1996,1997,1998,1999,2000, 2001,2002,2003,2004,2005,2006,2007,2008,2009), inset=.05, title=Years, c(1993:2009), pch=20, horiz=FALSE, cex=.7) Apparently there aren't enough colors for each year to have it's own individual color, but I think I can live with that.

Re: [R] Plotting Time Series Data by Month
Glad to help! There are definitely enough colors, but they aren't all assigned numbers automatically: to see a list of built in ones, try colors() You can always use a character string to specify a color as well -- but I think the easiest thing to do might be to use one of the palette functions like rainbow() to make a whole set of colors equally spaced throughout the rainbow. For production/optimized colors, look into the RColorBrewer package -- there's a somewhat large body of research on the best way to choose colors and that package will help automate that process.

Re: [R] Plotting Time Series Data by Month
Your data set is not reproducible from an image (use dput() on your next post to give us a taste of your data) but I'll hazard it's a ts class object. If so, try this: X - ts( sample(500, 204), frequency = 12, start = 1995) plot( rep(1:12, 17), X, col = rep(1:17, each = 12), xaxt = n, xlab = Months, pch = 20) axis(1, at = 1:12, label = month.abb, padj = 0) legend(bottom, pch = 20, col = 1:17, label = 1995:2011, horiz = TRUE) as a start. You can add the grid lines with (among others) the abline function's h argument.
