simple graphing question
If I understand your example correctly, I think you're looking for a dot-chart like this one from the R Graph Gallery: http://addictedtor.free.fr/graphiques/RGraphGallery.php?graph=150 You'd just need to replace the green/blue circles with X's and O's, respectively. Provided you reorganize your data the standard dotchart function should do what you need. See the code for the chart in the graph gallery (or here: http://tinyurl.com/dby3jd ). # David Smith -- David M Smith <david at revolution-computing.com> Director of Community, REvolution Computing www.revolution-computing.com Tel: +1 (206) 577-4778 x3203 (Seattle, USA)

I have what should be a simple question but I've been unable to solve it in a reasonable length of time. For example with data like
ge
product response scenario
1 wine 5 base
2 steel 10 base
3 sugar 4 base
4 wine -10 policy
5 steel 1 policy
6 sugar -20 policy
(In reality there would be similar groups of data of various sizes). I
would like to make dotplots with product on the left axis, x's for
policy and o's for base scenario, say in red and blue. I would like to
have horizontal lines from the product names across thru the x's and
o's to the other side. Because positive or negative responses are
important, I would like to have a vertical red line top to bottom at
0. I've experimented with dot.line, add.line to put in horizontal
lines but was unsuccessful. Although the following code puts a red
vertical line in, it is at the plot's left border.
gedot <-
function()
{
trellis.par.set(list(fontsize=list(text=12),
dot.symbol=list(pch=c(1,4), col=c("blue","red")) ))
print(dotplot(product ~ response, groups = scenario, pch=c(1,4),
xlab="", ylab=NULL))
panel.abline(v=0, col="red", reference=FALSE)
}
Help please.
