Flip cartesian coordinates so that horizontal becomes vertical, and vertical, horizontal. This is primarily useful for converting geoms and statistics which display y conditional on x, to x conditional on y.
coord_flip(xlim = NULL, ylim = NULL, expand = TRUE, clip = "on")
xlim | Limits for the x and y axes. |
---|---|
ylim | Limits for the x and y axes. |
expand | If |
clip | Should drawing be clipped to the extent of the plot panel? A
