ggpattern Package in R (5 Examples) | Draw ggplot2 Plots with Textures | Barplot, Density & Boxplot

R code of this video:

group = letters[1:3])
head(data) # Head of example data

remotes::install_github("coolbutuseless/ggpattern")
library("ggpattern") # Load ggpattern package

library("ggplot2") # Load ggplot2 package

ggplot(data, aes(group, x, fill = group)) + # Create barplot with pattern
geom_bar_pattern(stat = "identity")

ggplot(data, aes(group, x, fill = group)) + # Modify colors of pattern
geom_bar_pattern(stat = "identity",
pattern_color = "white",
pattern_fill = "black")

ggplot(data, aes(group, x, fill = group)) + # Different pattern for each group
geom_bar_pattern(stat = "identity",
pattern_color = "white",
pattern_fill = "black",
aes(pattern = group))

ggplot(data, aes(x, fill = group)) + # Create density plot with pattern
geom_density_pattern(pattern_color = "white",
pattern_fill = "black",
aes(pattern = group))

ggplot(data, aes(x, fill = group)) + # Create boxplot with pattern
geom_boxplot_pattern(pattern_color = "white",
pattern_fill = "black",
aes(pattern = group))

Thanks for very crystal clear video instruction, this is what I was looking in R for a long time!

[agsoutas]

The very state of the art!! Thanks a lot, Joachim!!😃
I had not the chance to check the videos you released lately because this November was very weird for me😐.

Thanks a lot, Joachim, beautiful explain

How do change the line pattern type (especially to make the lines thin) and density in the bar graph sir.

[AnnemiekeDrost]

Hey Joachim, thanks for the tutorial! I'm trying to set a specific texture for each of my 12 bars based on a column in my dataset, but can't figure out how to, do you have any idea?

[jababnamgay]

Very helpful tutorial. However, it does not work on my r studio 4.10 although I downloaded all the packages required. Every time I try to run the code, it hangs and have to close down the r. What could be the problem sir.

[OrlandoG]

is there a way to add a pattern only to a specific group?

[melvincubyx]

Hello Joachim! your videos are really helpful in data visualizations of my thesis. By any chance, how do you make different patterns of a stacked barplot having only one color, like black?

Hello, I am trying to use ggpattern package to generate some bar plot. However, after I load the package, some functions of ggplot2 were not running correctly, I got error message as:Error: 'flip_data' is not an exported object from 'namespace:ggplot2'. How should I fix this? Thanks!

But the pattern is not visible in the legend.
