Hello, I'm trying to use the vcd package to analyze survey data. Expert judges ranked possible features for product packaging. Seven features were listed, and 19 judges split between 2 cities ranked them.
The following code (1) works, but the side-by-side plots for Cities PX, SF are shrunk too much. Stacking PX on top of SF would make for a better plot. (I could switch the order of Feature and Rank dimensions, and go with the default side-by-side, but would prefer not to). (1) cotabplot(~ Rank + Feature| Cities, data = Pack.dat, gp = shading_max, rot_labels = c(90, 0, 0, 0),just_labels = c("left", "left", "left", "right"),set_varnames = c(Feature = "")) Reading the vcd help, I got lost trying to understand the panel-generating parameters I should use. My best guess was below (2), but gave an error message. Clearly, I don't know what the paneling is asking for. This is where I would like some advice, if anyone is familiar with vcd. (2) #### Tried to change the layout of trellis plot from horizontal to vertical Pack.mos<-mosaic(~Feature + Rank, data = Pack.tab, gp = shading_max, rot_labels = c(0, 0, 0, 0),just_labels = c("left", "left", "left", "right"),set_varnames = c(Feature = "")) ## attempt to create an object for panel argument in cotabplot function pushViewport(viewport(layout = grid.layout(ncol = 1))) pushViewport(viewport(layout.pos.row = 1)) ## tell vcd to change the default layout, and what to put in the top plot cotabplot(~ Feature + Rank | Cities, data = Pack.dat, panel = Pack.mos, Pack.dat[["PX"]], gp = shading_max, rot_labels = c(0, 0, 0, 0)) ## create mosaic plot that's conditional on Cities; first plot Cities = PX ## panel argument is an attempt to modify an example in the vcd help file popViewport() ## create the graphic Error: Cannot pop the top-level viewport (grid and graphics output mixed?) # no point in gong on to code the plot for layout.pos.row = 2 > str(Pack.tab) Error in `[.structable`(x, i, args[[2]]) : subscript out of bounds > class(Pack.tab) [1] "structable" "ftable" > dim(Pack.tab) [1] 7 2 7 Cities PX SF Rank Feature 1 Flexible 2 0 Integrate.Probes 1 2 Large/heavy 1 0 Lockout 0 1 Recyclable 3 5 Rigid 0 0 Small/light 2 1 2 Flexible 1 6 Integrate.Probes 2 0 Large/heavy 1 1 Lockout 1 0 Recyclable 2 0 Rigid 1 0 Small/light 2 2 3 Flexible 1 1 Integrate.Probes 3 0 Large/heavy 1 1 Lockout 2 1 Recyclable 1 3 Rigid 0 0 Small/light 0 3 4 Flexible 3 0 Integrate.Probes 0 2 Large/heavy 0 0 Lockout 2 2 Recyclable 0 1 Rigid 1 2 Small/light 3 2 5 Flexible 1 1 Integrate.Probes 1 1 Large/heavy 0 3 Lockout 0 2 Recyclable 2 0 Rigid 3 1 Small/light 2 1 6 Flexible 0 1 Integrate.Probes 1 3 Large/heavy 3 2 Lockout 3 1 Recyclable 0 0 Rigid 2 2 Small/light 0 0 7 Flexible 1 0 Integrate.Probes 1 1 Large/heavy 3 2 Lockout 1 2 Recyclable 1 0 Rigid 2 4 Small/light 0 0 > sessionInfo() R version 2.9.0 RC (2009-04-10 r48318) i386-pc-mingw32 locale: LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252;LC_CTYPE=English_United States.1252;LC_MONETARY=English_United States.1252;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=English_United States.1252 attached base packages: [1] grid tcltk stats graphics grDevices utils datasets [8] methods base other attached packages: [1] relimp_1.0-1 vcd_1.2-4 colorspace_1.0-0 MASS_7.2-46 [5] RSiteSearch_0.1-5 brew_1.0-3 lme4_0.999375-30 Matrix_0.999375-26 [9] lattice_0.17-22 Rcmdr_1.4-9 car_1.2-13 loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] tools_2.9.0 If someone can give advice on stacking the two cities' plots, I would be grateful.
