Re: [R] Lines in dotchart dotplot ?
Thanks again. Both layouts look very usefull and certainly a lot better than I was getting on my own. --- Deepayan Sarkar [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On 6/11/07, John Kane [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On 6/9/07, John Kane [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Is it possible to use dotchart or dotplot and set the lines in such a way that they only extend from the left y-axis to the data point?

Thank you very much I seem to remember that Wm Cleveland did this in his 1985 book The elements of graphing data. In cases where one has a true starting or O point on the x-scale this layout seems to be very effective in displaying some data. I know that I can do it by simple ploting lines and points but a more polished function than I am likely to produce would be nice.

[R] Lines in dotchart dotplot ?
Is it possible to use dotchart or dotplot and set the lines in such a way that they only extend from the left y-axis to the data point? I seem to remember that Wm Cleveland did this in his 1985 book The elements of graphing data. In cases where one has a true starting or O point on the x-scale this layout seems to be very effective in displaying some data. I know that I can do it by simple ploting lines and points but a more polished function than I am likely to produce would be nice.
