Hi Adrian, Perhaps what you want is this: ajdat<-structure(c(112L, 0L, 579L, 1L, 131L, 1L, 2234L, 2L, 2892L, 1L, 528L, 0L, 582L, 2L), .Dim = c(2L, 7L), .Dimnames = list(c("GN", "CN"), c("DC5", "DC8", "DC14", "DC18", "DC19", "DC20", "DC23" ))) library(plotrix)

Hi Adams, The story I am trying to show visually relationship between GN and CN for every column. Each column represents a patient. In each patient, a particular chromosome region (CN) is either lost (-2 or -1) or gained (1 or 2). Typically if loss (one copy loss - as humans have pair of

Adrian, What story are you trying to tell? Or what question are you trying to answer by visualizing these data? How is a bar plot of these numbers going to help? I'm just wondering if perhaps a different visualization might make more sense, for example, a scatter plot of GN vs. CN. m <-

I have suspect that the most common answer to this will be 'don't', for all the reasons statisticians don't like mixing vertical scales on the same plot. See http://www.perceptualedge.com/articles/visual_business_intelligence/dual-scaled_axes.pdf for one article on that topic. But if you must,
