Hi:
Here are a couple of ways to do this. The barplot() attempt is pretty
close to the original banner plot except that the color is transparent
to the (white) background. The ggplot2 graph is similar, but the code
may be less familiar if you don't use the package. In the latter, the
variable names vector, step and variable need to be reversed because
ggplot2 only does vertical histograms and the result has to be
'flipped' to get a corresponding horizontal one.
# (1) barplot()
# vector of variable abbreviations
nms <- rownames(ma$data)[ma$order]
# Two things: (i) replace step 0 by 6;
# (ii) change 'NULL' to NA
# create a data frame to use as a reference
cdat <- data.frame(val = (1:19) - 0.5,
step = replace(ma$step, which(ma$step == 0L), 6),
variable = replace(ma$variable, which(ma$variable
== 'NULL'), NA))
with(cdat, barplot(step, horiz = TRUE, xlab = 'Separation step',
col = 'transparent', space = 0))
axis(2, at = 0:19, labels = nms, las = 1)
with(cdat, text(x = step + 0.2, y = val, labels = variable, col = 'red'))
###################################
# (2) same thing in ggplot2
library('ggplot2')
nms2 <- rev(rownames(ma$data)[ma$order])
cdat2 <- data.frame(val = (1:19) - 0.5,
step = rev(replace(ma$step, which(ma$step == 0L), 6)),
variable = rev(replace(ma$variable,
which(ma$variable == 'NULL'), NA)))
ggplot(cdat2, aes(x = val, y = step)) +
theme_bw() +
geom_histogram(stat = 'identity', colour = 'grey60', fill = NA, size = 1) +
geom_text(aes(y = step + 0.3, label = variable), colour = 'red') +
ylim(0, 6) +
labs(x = '', y = 'Separation step') +
scale_x_continuous(breaks = 0:19, labels = nms2) +
coord_flip() +
opts(panel.grid.major = theme_blank(),
panel.grid.minor = theme_blank())
HTH,
