Dear experts, I am trying to make a bar graph using ggplot2. I would like to define the order of my bars independently of alphabetical or numerical order. How can I do that. Here a simplified example of my code and comments(#) describing my problem:
#Code start library(ggplot2) bar<-ggplot(data,aes(Leaf,Av_Glands_cor,fill=Damage)) # The column "Leaf" contains the variable C_1, C_2 and C_Cot. R always plots the bars in the following orders : C_1 (closest to the y-axis), C_2, C_Cot # How do I have to modify my code that the order of the bars is: C_Cot, C_2, C_1? bar+stat_summary(fun.y=mean,geom="bar",position="dodge",colour="black")+ theme_bw()+ theme(text = element_text(size=15), axis.text.x = element_text(angle=90, vjust=1))+ stat_summary(fun.data=mean_cl_normal,geom="errorbar",position=position_dodge(width=0.9),width=0.4,colour="gray65")+ labs(x="Leaf",y="Average nr. glands corrected for leaf sz.",fill="Damage")+ scale_fill_manual(values=c("gray95", "gray75", "gray45", "black")) #Code end Thank you very much, Michael Eisenring Eisenring Michael, Msc.
