The R ggplot2 dot Plot or dot chart consists of a data point drawn on a specified scale. Let me show how to Create an R ggplot dotplot, Format its colors, plot horizontal dot plots with an example. For this R ggplot2 Dot Plot demonstration, we use the airquality data set provided by the R. A plot or image output element that can be included in a panel. The arguments clickId and hoverId only work for R base graphics (see the graphics package). They do not work for grid-based graphics, such as ggplot2, lattice, and so on. Interactive plots. Plots and images in Shiny support mouse-based interaction, via clicking, double-clicking, hovering, and brushing. The default plot function, however, doesn’t give the reader needed control over the axis labels. Below I’ve plotted the some data using the R defaults and then made several changes for comparison. I think the plot on the right looks much better. In this post, I’ll show you how to make the changes. Usually, simply closing that window that says R Graphics Device 2 (Active) is enough to have any further plots appear in the plot pane. Have you tried that? 1 Like system closed June 5, 2019, 2:45am #6.

Scatterplots show many points plotted in the Cartesian plane. Each point represents the values of two variables. One variable is chosen in the horizontal axis and another in the vertical axis.

The simple scatterplot is created using the plot() function.

Syntax

The basic syntax for creating scatterplot in R is −

Following is the description of the parameters used −

• x is the data set whose values are the horizontal coordinates.

• y is the data set whose values are the vertical coordinates.

• main is the tile of the graph.

• xlab is the label in the horizontal axis.

• ylab is the label in the vertical axis.

• xlim is the limits of the values of x used for plotting.

• ylim is the limits of the values of y used for plotting.

• axes indicates whether both axes should be drawn on the plot.

Example

We use the data set 'mtcars' available in the R environment to create a basic scatterplot. Let's use the columns 'wt' and 'mpg' in mtcars.

When we execute the above code, it produces the following result −

Creating the Scatterplot

The below script will create a scatterplot graph for the relation between wt(weight) and mpg(miles per gallon).

When we execute the above code, it produces the following result −

Scatterplot Matrices

When we have more than two variables and we want to find the correlation between one variable versus the remaining ones we use scatterplot matrix. We use pairs() function to create matrices of scatterplots.

Syntax

The basic syntax for creating scatterplot matrices in R is −

Following is the description of the parameters used −

• formula represents the series of variables used in pairs.

• data represents the data set from which the variables will be taken.

Example

Each variable is paired up with each of the remaining variable. A scatterplot is plotted for each pair.

R Plot Not Showing All Points

When the above code is executed we get the following output.

11.7 Hide code, text output, messages, or plots

R Plot Lines Not Showing

By default, knitr displays all possible output from a code chunk, including the source code, text output, messages, warnings, and plots. You can hide them individually using the corresponding chunk options.

One frequently asked question about knitr is how to hide package loading messages. For example, when you library(tidyverse) or library(ggplot2), you may see some loading messages. Such messages can also be suppressed by the chunk option message = FALSE.

You can also selectively show or hide these elements by indexing them. In the following example, we only show the fourth and fifth expressions of the R source code (note that a comment counts as one expression), the first two messages, and the second and third warnings:

You can use negative indices, too. For example, echo = -2 means to exclude the second expression of the source code in the output.

Similarly, you can choose which plots to show or hide by using indices for the fig.keep option. For example, fig.keep = 1:2 means to keep the first two plots. There are a few shortcuts for this option: fig.keep = 'first' will only keep the first plot, fig.keep = 'last' only keeps the last plot, and fig.keep = 'none' discards all plots. Note that the two options fig.keep = 'none' and fig.show = 'hide' are different: the latter will generate plots but only hide them, and the former will not generate plot files at all.

R Markdown Plots Not Showing

For source code blocks in the html_document output, if you do not want to completely omit them (echo = FALSE), you may see Section 7.5 for how to fold them on the page, and allow users to unfold them by clicking the unfolding buttons.
