I understand that varwidth = TRUE within ggplot2's geom_boxplot can be used to create proportional boxplots so that each boxplot also summarises the number of points within a plot. However, I am struggling to maintain proportional boxplot sizes whilst also producing multiple plots?
Using the diamonds df in ggplot2 I am trying to reproduce the below image.
What I have tried is this:
ggplot(data = diamonds, mapping = aes(x = carat, y = price)) + geom_boxplot(mapping = aes(group = cut_number(carat, 20), varwidth = TRUE))
I tried to use cut_number to achieve the multiple, and var-width for proportionality. I'd also like to have the boxplots show vertically. I have been stumped on this for hours and have looked online but to no avail. Any tips?
Since ggplot2 v3.3.0, the orientation of layers are autodetected. In some cases, this detection can be incorrect. You can force the orientation by adding it as an argument to a layer:
library(ggplot2)
ggplot(data = diamonds, mapping = aes(x = carat, y = price)) +
geom_boxplot(mapping = aes(group = cut_number(carat, 20)),
orientation = "x")
