I want to plot several bar plots next to each other.
My subplots are labelled according to the column "meter". I would like to have them in the order of increasing meter. Unfortunately if I have a sample of 350-400 meter, the ones starting with 1 ( eg. 1400-1450) are plotted first. The addition of -1, -2 to some of the meter-labels does not seem to influence the order but might be a problem in solving the first problem.
Hope this is clear, thanks for your help.
this is my code
qplot(group, geom="bar", data=KANAL, weight=count, facets=.~meter, xlab="Korngrösse in [cm]",ylab="Anzahl", main="Korngrössenverteilung des Substrats in der kanalisierte Strecke") +
theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 90, v = 1), text =element_text(size = 20)) +
scale_x_discrete(breaks=c("a", "b", "c", "d", "e"), labels=c("1-4 cm","4-7 cm","7-10 cm", "10-20 cm", "20-30 cm")) +
scale_y_continuous(limits=c(0, 250))
This is a sample of my data:
