ggplot2 3D 酒吧 Plot

Question

I Know this sounds basic, but have a been searching for literally more than an hour now without success. I'm simply trying to plot a 3D bar plot in 'R' using the 'ggplot2' package. My dataframe looks something like this:

 x   y     z
t1   5   high
t1   2   low
t1   4   med
t2   8   high
t2   1   low
t2   3   med
t3  50   high
t3  12   med
t3  35   low

and I want to plot something like this on it:

Any help is more than appreciated!!

Answer 1

As mentioned in comments, 3D plots usually aren't a good choice (when other options are available) since they tend to give a distorted/obscured view of data.

That said, here's how you can plot your data as desired with latticeExtra :

d <- read.table(text=' x   y     z
t1   5   high
t1   2   low
t1   4   med
t2   8   high
t2   1   low
t2   3   med
t3  50   high
t3  12   med
t3  35   low', header=TRUE)

library(latticeExtra)

cloud(y~x+z, d, panel.3d.cloud=panel.3dbars, col.facet='grey', 
      xbase=0.4, ybase=0.4, scales=list(arrows=FALSE, col=1), 
      par.settings = list(axis.line = list(col = "transparent")))

The {rayshader} package is another package that allows 3D visualisation - according to the author, it will only allow 3d visualisation for data that has indeed three dimension. Here based on a tile plot .

NB: the below required for me to install current GitHub versions of both the rayshader (v.0.33.3) and rgl (v.1.0.0) packages.

# devtools::install_github("tylermorganwall/rayshader") ## NB this will install a lot of dependencies
library(rayshader)
library(ggplot2)
d <- read.table(text=' x   y     z
t1   5   high
t1   2   low
t1   4   med
t2   8   high
t2   1   low
t2   3   med
t3  50   high
t3  12   med
t3  35   low', header=TRUE)

p <- ggplot(d, aes(x, z, fill = y)) +
  geom_tile() +
  scale_fill_fermenter(type = "div", palette = "RdYlBu")

plot_gg(p)
render_movie(filename = "plot.gif")
