draw the sum value above the stacked bar in ggplot2
You can do this by creating a dataset of per-class totals (this can be done multiple ways but I prefer dplyr):
library(dplyr)
totals <- hp %>%
group_by(class) %>%
summarize(total = sum(value))
Then adding a geom_text
layer to your plot, using totals
as the dataset:
p + geom_bar(binwidth = 0.5, stat="identity") +
aes(x = reorder(class, -value, sum), y = value, label = value, fill = year) +
theme() +
geom_text(aes(class, total, label = total, fill = NULL), data = totals)
You can make the text higher or lower than the top of the bars using the vjust
argument, or just by adding some value to total
:
p + geom_bar(binwidth = 0.5, stat = "identity") +
aes(x = reorder(class, -value, sum), y = value, label = value, fill = year) +
theme() +
geom_text(aes(class, total + 20, label = total, fill = NULL), data = totals)
You can use the built-in summary functionality of ggplot2
directly:
ggplot(hp, aes(reorder(class, -amount, sum), amount, fill = year)) +
geom_col() +
geom_text(
aes(label = after_stat(y), group = class),
stat = 'summary', fun = sum, vjust = -1
)
