helpeRs,
I have a nice looking mosaic plot in an article to be published
soon. Sadly, the published version will be in black and white and so ruin
the advantage of the default shading scheme of tiles.
What would readers suggest as an alternative shading scheme? If I have a
black-and-white shading scheme graduated according to suitable cutoffs I
won't be able to tell positive from negative residuals. The tile borders
can be changed of course, but I'm uncertain that is will be clear enough
for a reader.
Another option may be to use a fill pattern of sloping lines with different
orientations for the sign and density for the magnitude. The problem with
this option is I wouldn't know where to start to incorporate into a legend.
The shading_binary function is no good as I would like the cells with
residuals less than absolute 2 to be different from other cells. How would
readers of this list represent a mosaic plot so that it was easily
interpretable in monochrome?
My data can be used as an example:
library(vcd)
library(MASS)
term.1 <- gl(2,1,8, labels = LETTERS[1:2])
term.2 <- gl(2,2,8, labels = LETTERS[3:4])
term.3 <- gl(2,4,8, labels = LETTERS[5:6])
cell.count <- c(72, 19, 5, 8, 117, 115, 81, 85)
mosaic(loglm(formula = cell.count ~ term.1 + term.2 + term.3),
shade = TRUE, gp = shading_hcl, legend = TRUE,
labeling_args = list(rot_labels = rep(0,4)),
gp_args = list(lty = 1:2),legend_width = unit(0.2, "npc"))
