Add a segment only to one facet using ggplot2

问题:

As an example, I have this data frame, called my_data:

         Groups    FactorA    FactorB    FactorC N    value         sd        se         ci

16 Experimental Condition2 Condition2 Condition2 3 78.00000  5.2915026  3.055050  13.144821

created with this code

my_data <- data.frame(Groups=c(rep("Control",20),rep("Experimental",20)),
                      FactorA=rep(c("Condition1","Condition2"),20),
                      FactorB=rep(c("Condition1","Condition1","Condition2","Condition2"),10),
                      FactorC=rep(c(rep("Condition1",4),rep("Condition2",4)),5),
                      value=sample(60:100,40,replace=T)
                      )

# add standard errors with a specific function    
my_data <- summarySE(my_data,
                     measurevar="value",
                     groupvars=c("Groups","FactorA","FactorB", "FactorC"))

Then, with this code:

    ggplot(my_data, aes(Groups,value,fill=FactorA)) + 
  geom_bar(position=position_dodge(), stat="identity") +
  geom_errorbar(aes(ymin=value-se, ymax=value+se),
               width=.1,                    # Width of the error bars
               position=position_dodge(.9)) +
  facet_grid(FactorB~FactorC) +
  geom_segment(x=0.8,y=100,xend=1.2,yend=100) +
  theme(axis.text.x=element_text(size=12, colour="black"),
        axis.title.x=element_blank(),
        legend.key.size=unit(1,"cm"),
        legend.text=element_text(size=14),
        plot.title=element_text(lineheight=.8, face="bold"),
        panel.margin=unit(1, "lines"),
        axis.title.y = element_text(size = 16, vjust=0.3),
        strip.text.y = element_text(size=16,face="bold"),
        strip.text.x = element_text(size=16,face="bold")) +
  coord_cartesian(ylim=c(60, 120))

I obtain this plot

As you can see, with the line geom_segment(x=0.8,y=100,xend=1.2,yend=100) there appear four segments, one for each facet, but I want to draw a segment only in one facet (for example in the upper left plot).

Could someone help me, please? I tried various solutions but nothing.

回答1:

Put the data for the segment in data frame and also add columns FactorB and FactorC with levels for which you need to draw the segment.

data.segm<-data.frame(x=0.8,y=100,xend=1.2,yend=100,
                      FactorB="Condition1",FactorC="Condition1")

Now use this data frame to add segment. Also add inherit.aes=FALSE inside geom_segment() to ignore fill=FactorA set in ggplot().

  + geom_segment(data=data.segm,
               aes(x=x,y=y,yend=yend,xend=xend),inherit.aes=FALSE)+
