Cambiar el orden de un diagrama de barras apiladas con ggplot2

Problema

Deseamos controlar el orden en el que se apilan las barras de un diagrama de barras en ggplot2.

  • Gráfico original
  • Por defecto las barras se apilan alfabéticamente en función de la variable usada en el argumento fill.

    library(reshape2)
    library(ggplot2)
    ra.melt <- melt(ra)
    p <- ggplot(ra.melt, aes(x = variable, y = value))
    p + geom_bar(aes(fill = quality), stat = "identity") + 
      labs(x = "group", y = "percentage (%)")
    
    Comprobamos los niveles de la variable quality.

    levels(ra.melt$quality)
    
     [1] "A"     "B"     "C"     "D"     "E"     "F"    
     [7] "G"     "H"     "I"     "J"     "K"     "L"    
    [13] "M"     "other"

Solución

  • En el orden original del data frame
  • ra.melt$quality <- factor(ra.melt$quality, levels = ra$quality)
    p <- ggplot(ra.melt, aes(x = variable, y = value))
    p + geom_bar(aes(fill = quality), stat = "identity") + 
        labs(x = "group", y = "percentage (%)")
    
    factor(ra.melt$quality, levels = ra$quality)
    
     [1] B     F     M     A     G     E     J     D    
     [9] C     I     K     L     H     other B     F    
    [17] M     A     G     E     J     D     C     I    
    [25] K     L     H     other B     F     M     A    
    [33] G     E     J     D     C     I     K     L    
    [41] H     other B     F     M     A     G     E    
    [49] J     D     C     I     K     L     H     other
    [57] B     F     M     A     G     E     J     D    
    [65] C     I     K     L     H     other
    Levels: B F M A G E J D C I K L H other
    
  • En el orden reverso del original
  • ra.melt$quality <- factor(ra.melt$quality, levels = rev(ra$quality))
    p <- ggplot(ra.melt, aes(x = variable, y = value))
    p + geom_bar(aes(fill = quality), stat = "identity") +  
        labs(x = "group", y = "percentage (%)")
    
    factor(ra.melt$quality, levels = rev(ra$quality))
    
     [1] B     F     M     A     G     E     J     D    
     [9] C     I     K     L     H     other B     F    
    [17] M     A     G     E     J     D     C     I    
    [25] K     L     H     other B     F     M     A    
    [33] G     E     J     D     C     I     K     L    
    [41] H     other B     F     M     A     G     E    
    [49] J     D     C     I     K     L     H     other
    [57] B     F     M     A     G     E     J     D    
    [65] C     I     K     L     H     other
    Levels: other H L K I C D J E G A M F B
    
    O alternativamente, usamos la función fct_rev

    library(forcats)
    p <- ggplot(ra.melt, aes(x = variable, y = value))
    p + geom_bar(aes(fill = fct_rev(quality)), stat = "identity") + 
      labs(x = "group", y = "percentage (%)")
    
  • Si deseamos invertir el orden de las barras pero no de la leyenda, usamos el position_stack(reverse = TRUE)
  • p <- ggplot(ra.melt, aes(x = variable, y = value))
    p + geom_bar(aes(fill = fct_rev(quality)), stat = "identity", position = position_stack(reverse = TRUE)) + labs(x = "group", y = "percentage (%)")

  1. Buenas tardes, gracias por su aporte. Y si quisiera reordenar de mayor a menor (o viceversa) pero que la leyenda quede ordenada alfabéticamente. Se puede realizar eso?
