Adjust Y axis as per the values

tidyverse
1

Below code plots 2 graphs perfectly. But the issues is since the y axis values are different, the second plot line is very low. Can we adjust y axis as per its values. Like is there a default function so that no matter what the values of y are, the y axis gets adjusted accordingly


     library(reshape)
     df1 <- structure(list(a1 = c(1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3), b1 = structure(c(1L, 
    1L, 1L, 2L, 2L, 2L), .Label = c("x", "y"), class = "factor"), 
    c1 = c(1000, 1200, 1300, 1, 2, 3)), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, 
    -6L))
    ggplot(data = df1,aes(x=a1,y=c1,fill=b1))+geom_line()+facet_wrap("b1",ncol=1,nrow=11, 
    scales = "free_x")+theme(axis.text.y=element_text(angle=45, hjust=1,size = 
    0.1))+geom_text(data = df1,aes(x=a1,label=round(c1,2)),size=3,angle = 0, color = 
    "black",vjust=-0.25)+xlab("Units")

You are nearly there, just replace

scales = "free_x"

with

scales = "free_y"

as the x-axis is constant you don't need it there.

PS: Is there any particular reason why you create the dataframes so complicated?
Try:

df2 = data.frame(a1 = c(1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3),
                 b1 = rep(c("x", "y"), each = 3),
                 c1 = c(1000, 1200, 1300, 1, 2, 3))

df3 = tibble(a1 = c(1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3),
             b1 = as.factor(rep(c("x", "y"), each = 3)),
             c1 = c(1000, 1200, 1300, 1, 2, 3))

Thanks a lot. Will try now. But could you let me know why this is complicated? I am not sure what you meant :slight_smile:

It seems to me that you have used dput which returns a "complicated" way of creating a data frame, but I guess it is so deliberately so in order to aid reproducibility. E.g.,

dput(iris)

OK got it thanks. But going back to your solution. I replaced with scales = "free_y". But I need scales = "free_x" as well. If I include both like
facet_wrap("variable",ncol=1,nrow=11, scales = "free_y",scales = "free_x")

I get error in the plot

Use scales = "free"
