Please ignore my last question. I found a way to handle that. One last thing:
I'm defining my own y scales. In the process the bar starts from below the "y=0" line (or below the y-axis). Is there a way to get rid of it. Here is the code and data I'm using R Code (Data read in object "dta") dta$age <- factor(dta$age, levels = c("0--4", "5--14", "15--18"), ordered = TRUE) dta$race <- factor(dta$race, levels = c("White", "Black", "Other")) *yScale<-seq(0,1000,50) *library(lattice) barchart(dta$sum ~ dta$age | dta$gender, data = dta, groups = dta$race, ylab = "Sum of admissions over 10 years (1996-2005)", xlab = "Age", par.settings = simpleTheme(col = c("green1", "yellow1", "orange")), key = list(space="right", cex=1, text=list(levels(dta$race)), rectangles=list(size=1.7, border="white", col = c("green1", "yellow1", "orange"))), strip = strip.custom(bg="greenyellow"), * scales=list(y=list(rot=360, at=yScale), tck=c(1,0)), panel=function(x,y,...) { panel.abline(h=c(yScale), col.line="gray") panel.barchart(x,y,...) } *) Data: age gender race sum 0--4 Female Black 145 0--4 Female Other 53 0--4 Female White 47 0--4 Male Black 286 0--4 Male Other 130 0--4 Male White 94 15--18 Female Black 30 15--18 Female Other 3 15--18 Female White 9 15--18 Male Black 21 15--18 Male Other 2 15--18 Male White 3 5--14 Female Black 138 5--14 Female Other 31 5--14 Female White 23 5--14 Male Black 199 5--14 Male Other 65 5--14 Male White 29 Thanks, Peng On Sun, Dec 6, 2009 at 11:47 AM, Peng Cai <pengcaimaill...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thank you Uwe, Dennis, and Gary for your help.
