One of the great things about making plots with ggplot2 is that it offers a number of ways to add colors to the plots. We can use ggplot2’s default options for adding colors to plots. However, sometimes one might want to manually specify colors to a plot. There are a few ways to manually specify… Continue reading How To Manually Specify Colors for Barplot in ggplot2?

How To Highlight a Bar in Barplot in R?
Sometimes while making a barplot, you might like to highlight a single bar in different color when compared to other bars. In this post, we will learn how to highlight a bar in barplot using ggplot2 in R. A Barplot displays counts or some quantitative variable corresponding to multiple categories as bars. Let us load… Continue reading How To Highlight a Bar in Barplot in R?
How To Make Barplots with Error bars in ggplot2?
In this post, we will learn how to make a barplot with error bar using ggplot2 in R. Barplot alone is useful to display counts for multiple categories. However, often there may be uncertainty around the count values and we could represent as error bar on the barplot. Let us load tidyverse packages. We will… Continue reading How To Make Barplots with Error bars in ggplot2?
Coloring Barplots with ggplot2 in R
In this tutorial, we will see examples of making barplots and coloring the barplots in a few simple ways. We will see how to color barplots manually by specifying a color of interest and how to color a barplot by another variable in the dataset. Let us load tidyverse suite of packages and set the… Continue reading Coloring Barplots with ggplot2 in R
How to Make Horizontal Stacked Barplots with ggplot2 in R?
Stacked barcharts are a variant of barplots, when you have data from multiple groups. In this tutorial, we will see two examples of making stacked barplots using ggplt2 in R. First we will see how to make stacked barplot of two groups with one on top of the other. In the second example we will… Continue reading How to Make Horizontal Stacked Barplots with ggplot2 in R?
