position_jitterdodge: Adjust position by simultaneously dodging and jittering

Description

This is primarily used for aligning points generated through geom_point() with dodged boxplots (e.g., a geom_boxplot() with a fill aesthetic supplied).

Usage

position_jitterdodge(jitter.width = NULL, jitter.height = 0, dodge.width = 0.75)

Arguments

jitter.width
degree of jitter in x direction. Defaults to 40% of the resolution of the data.
jitter.height
degree of jitter in y direction. Defaults to 0.
dodge.width
the amount to dodge in the x direction. Defaults to 0.75, the default position_dodge() width.

Other position adjustments: position_dodge, position_fill, position_identity, position_jitter, position_nudge

Examples

Run this code
dsub <- diamonds[ sample(nrow(diamonds), 1000), ]
ggplot(dsub, aes(x = cut, y = carat, fill = clarity)) +
  geom_boxplot(outlier.size = 0) +
  geom_point(pch = 21, position = position_jitterdodge())
