Hi everyone -
I've recently implemented violin plots and dot plots for ggplot2. Here's a
sampling of what you can do with them:
[image: violin-nofullwidth.png] [image: violin-boxplot.png]
[image: dotplot.png] [image: dotplot-y-groupx-violin.png]
For more information, see:
https://github.com/wch/ggplot2/wiki/geom_dotplot
https://github.com/wch/ggplot2/wiki/geom_violin
If you want to try them out, you can install this development branch without
interfering with your regular installation of ggplot2:
install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
dev_mode()
install_github("ggplot2", "wch", "feature/wdotplot")
In each R session where you want to use this version, just run:
library(devtools)
dev_mode()
library(ggplot2)
To use your regular ggplot2 installation, just restart R.
I'm still working on these things, so keep in mind that they may change
(and break) in the near future.
Feedback is welcome!
