Hi:
After a number of false starts, I finally consulted Deepayan's book and the
example on p. 73, suitably adapted, yielded a solution. Add a variable for
the labels and then...
df$lab <- rep(1:6, each = 3)
bwplot(dv ~ f1 | f2, data = df, ylim = c(0.5, 1),
panel = function(x, y, ..., subscripts) {
lab <- df$lab[subscripts]
panel.bwplot(x, y, ...)
panel.text(x, 0.55, labels = lab)
}
)
If you look closely, you'll see that each label is overplotted three times.
A similar plot in ggplot2 would be
library(ggplot2)
ggplot(df, aes(x = f1, y = dv)) + geom_boxplot() +
geom_text(aes(x = as.numeric(f1), lab = lab), y = 0.55, alpha = 0.5) +
facet_wrap( ~ f2) + ylim(0.5, 1)
The alpha argument in geom_text() is designed to mitigate the overplotting
effect somewhat.
HTH,
Dennis
