Thanks, Carlos,
 
 your solution looks nice, however, there are 4 bars instead of 2 i.e. bars are not stacked.
Meanwhile I got a solution for that task.
So thanks for sharing your version of it!
 
Good luck,
 Mario

Betreff: Re: [R] Horizontal stacked 100% bars with ggplot2


Hello,

If it helps...:



Lines <- "pet gender
dog male
dog female
dog male
cat female
cat female
cat male
"

d.f <- read.table(textConnection(Lines), header=T, as.is = TRUE)

d.tab<-table(d.f$pet, d.f$gender)
d.f.tab<-as.data.frame(table(d.f$pet, d.f$gender))
names(d.f.tab)<-c('pet','gender', 'Freq')


library(lattice)
histogram(
  ~ Freq | pet *gender, data=d.f.tab, 
  groups=gender, stack=T, horizontal=T
  )
