Description

The patternbar_s function is a tool for creating versatile stacked bar charts by filling the bars with colors and patterns.

Usage

patternbar_s(
  data,
  x,
  y,
  group,
  xlab = "",
  ylab = "",
  label.size = 3.5,
  pattern.type,
  pattern.line.size = rep(10, length(unique(group))),
  pattern.color = rep("black", length(unique(group))),
  background.color = rep("white", length(unique(group))),
  frame.color = "black",
  frame.size = 1,
  pixel = 20,
  density = rep(12, length(unique(group))),
  legend.type = "h",
  legend.h = 6,
  legend.x.pos = 1.1,
  legend.y.pos = 0.49,
  legend.w = 0.2,
  legend.pixel = 20,
  legend.label,
  bar.width = 0.9
)

Arguments

data	the data to be used.
x	the variable used on x axis.
y	the variable used on y axis.
group	the variable used as the second grouping variable on x axis.
xlab	a character string to give x axis label.
ylab	a character string to give y axis label.
label.size	the font size of legend labels shown above the bars.
pattern.type	a vector of patterns to be filled in the bars The pattern types include: 'blank', 'bricks', 'vdashes', 'hdashes', 'crosshatch','dots', 'grid','hlines','nelines', 'nwlines', 'vlines', 'waves' and more.
pattern.line.size	a vector of numeric values, the line size for the lines/dots of patterns.
pattern.color	a vector of colors for the lines/dots of patterns.
background.color	a vector of colors to be filled in the bars.
frame.color	the color for the borders of bars.
frame.size	a numeric value, the line size for the borders of bars.
pixel	a numeric value, the pixel resolution of bar chart.
density	a numeric vector, the density for the lines/dots of patterns.
legend.type	if legend.type='h', the layout of legends is horizontal; if legend.type='v', the layout of legends is vertical.
legend.h	a numeric value to change the height of legend boxes.
legend.x.pos	a numeric value to change the position of legends on x axis.
legend.y.pos	a numeric value to change the position of legends on y axis.
legend.w	a numeric value to change the width of legends.
