Hi, All, I want to construct a pareto chart for my data. My data has two columns: modules and defects(each module has several defects). Now I use pareto.chart to create a chart for defects which y axis is cumulative percentage of defect, and x axis is value of defect. That is not what I want. I need the x axis be percentage of modules. Is there any way that I can change the scale of x axis, that make x axis be percent scale for modules, like 0% to 100% modules. So that I can directly read the chart, is that 20% modules contains 80% defect. Or, is there any function that I can use to achive it directly? Thank you in advanced! Hedy

Since we have no idea what your data looks like, you can create a plot and then apply your own axis. You might also be able to rescale the x-axis data to be a percentage to start with. It is all doable depending on what you input looks like and what you want your output to look like. That is the beauty of R.
