How to label a barplot bar with positive and negative bars with ggplot2
I'm trying to plot a labeled barplot with ggplot2 with positive and negative bars.
That works so far, but I would like to set the label outside of the bar, so that it is above or under the bar. I tried to set an adjustment in vjust = c(x1,...,xn)
where x
is a positive or negative value according to the value of the bar in geom_text()
. This doesn't work. I just got the Error message Error: "When setting aesthetics, they may only take one value. Problems: vjust"
With the normal plot command that works. I want to replicate this command in ggplot2:
xpos <- barplot(d, col=mycols, main='Verteilung in Dresden 2004',
ylab='Anteil in %', xlab='Milieu', names.arg=l,
cex.axis=0.7, cex.names=0.7, ylim=c(0,max(d)+0.05))
boxed.labels(xpos,d+0.02,sprintf('%d%s', d*100, '%'),
bg='transparent', border=FALSE, cex=0.7)
So that it looks like this just in nice... ;-)
Does someone have any suggestions?
Thank's for y'all help.
This does the trick
library(plyr)
library(ggplot2)
library(scales)
dtf <- data.frame(x = c("ETB", "PMA", "PER", "KON", "TRA",
"DDR", "BUM", "MAT", "HED", "EXP"),
y = c(.02, .11, -.01, -.03, -.03, .02, .1, -.01, -.02, 0.06))
ggplot(dtf, aes(x, y)) +
geom_bar(stat = "identity", aes(fill = x), legend = FALSE) +
geom_text(aes(label = paste(y * 100, "%"),
vjust = ifelse(y >= 0, 0, 1))) +
scale_y_continuous("Anteil in Prozent", labels = percent_format()) +
opts(axis.title.x = theme_blank())
