Dear John, You can get pretty close with ggplot2.
Best regards, Thierry library(ggplot2) dataset <- data.frame(Name = LETTERS[1:26]) dataset$Score <- runif(nrow(dataset)) dataset$Category <- cut(dataset$Score, breaks = c(-Inf, 0.33, 0.66, Inf), labels = c("Bad", "Neutral", "Good")) dataset$Name <- factor(dataset$Name, levels = dataset$Name[order(dataset$Score)]) dataset$Location <- as.numeric(dataset$Name) ggplot(dataset, aes(x = Name, y = Score, fill = Category)) + geom_bar() + coord_polar() #with some extra tweeking dataset <- rbind(dataset, data.frame( Location = c(max(dataset$Location) + seq_len(max(dataset$Location) / 2), min(dataset$Location) - seq_len(max(dataset$Location) / 2)), Name = "", Score = 0, Category = "Good" ) ) ggplot(dataset, aes(x = Location, y = Score, fill = Category)) + geom_bar(stat = "identity") + coord_polar(start = pi, direction = -1) + scale_fill_manual(value = c(Good = "green", Neutral = "grey", Bad = "red")) + theme_bw() + scale_x_continuous("", breaks = dataset$Location, labels = dataset$Name) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ir.
