StackedListPlot

StackedListPlot[{data1,data2,…}]

plots lines for each of the datai, with the i^(th) curve being the accumulation of values in data1 through datai.

StackedListPlot[{…,w[datai],…}]

plots datai with features defined by the symbolic wrapper w.

Details and Options

  • The datai have the following forms and interpretations:
  • {y1,y2,…}heights {y1,y2,…} with automatic x values
    {{x1,y1},{x2,y2},…}values {{x1,y1},{x2,y2},…}
    <|"k1"y1,"k2"y2,…|>values {y1,y2,…}
    <|x1y1,x2y2,…|>key-value pairs {{x1,y1},{x2,y2},…}
    {y1"lbl1",y2"lbl2",…}, {y1,y2,…}{"lbl1","lbl2",…}values {y1,y2,…} with labels {lbl1,lbl2,…}
    SparseArrayvalues as a normal array
    TimeSeries, EventSeriestime-value pairs
    QuantityArraymagnitudes
    WeightedDataunweighted values
  • Data values xi and yi can be given in the following forms:
  • xia real-valued number
    Quantity[xi,unit]a quantity with a unit
  • If necessary, the data will be sorted according to the xi.
  • The positive part of each datai is plotted on the positive axis and the negative part on the negative axis.
  • Negative values of yi stack in the opposite direction from positive values.
  • Values xi and yi that are not of the preceding form are taken to be missing and are not shown. Missing data is taken to be zero for accumulation purposes.
  • The following wrappers w can be used for the datai:
  • Annotation[datai,label]provide an annotation for the data
    Button[datai,action]define an action to execute when the data is clicked
    Callout[datai,label]label the data with a callout
    Callout[datai,label,pos]place the callout at relative position pos
    EventHandler[datai,events]define a general event handler for the data
    Hyperlink[datai,uri]make the data a hyperlink
    Labeled[datai,label]label the data
    Labeled[datai,label,pos]place the label at relative position pos
    Legended[datai,label]identify the data in a legend
    PopupWindow[datai,cont]attach a popup window to the data
    StatusArea[datai,label]display in the status area on mouseover
    Style[datai,styles]show the data using the specified styles
    Tooltip[datai,label]attach a tooltip to the curve
  • Wrappers w can be applied at multiple levels:
  • {…,w[yi],…}wrap the value yi in data
    {…,w[{xi,yi}],…}wrap the point {xi,yi}
    w[datai]wrap the data
    w[{data1,…}]wrap a collection of datai
    w1[w2[…]]use nested wrappers
  • Callout, Labeled and Placed can use the following positions pos:
  • Automaticautomatically placed labels
    Above, Below, Before, Afterpositions around the curve
    xnear the curve at a position x
    Scaled[s]scaled position s along the curve
    {s,Above},{s,Below},…relative position at position s along the curve
    {pos,epos}epos in label placed at relative position pos of the curve
  • StackedListPlot has the same options as Graphics, with the following additions and changes:
  • AspectRatio1/GoldenRatioratio of height to width
    AxesTruewhether to draw axes
    ClippingStyleNonewhat to draw when lines are clipped
    ColorFunctionAutomatichow to determine the coloring of lines
    ColorFunctionScalingTruewhether to scale arguments to ColorFunction
    DataRangeAutomaticthe range of x values to assume for data
    FillingAutomaticfilling under each line
    FillingStyleAutomaticstyle to use for filling
    InterpolationOrderNonethe polynomial degree of curves used in joining data points
    LabelingFunctionAutomatichow to label points
    MaxPlotPointsInfinitythe maximum number of points to include
    MeshNonehow many mesh points to draw on each line
    MeshFunctions{#1&}how to determine the placement of mesh points
    MeshShadingNonehow to shade regions between mesh points
    MeshStyleAutomaticthe style for mesh points
    MethodAutomaticmethods to use
    PerformanceGoal$PerformanceGoalaspects of performance to try to optimize
    PlotLabelNoneoverall label for the plot
    PlotLabelsNonelabels for data
    PlotLayout"Stacked"how to position data
    PlotLegendsNonelegends for data
    PlotMarkersNonemarkers to use to indicate each point
    PlotRangeAutomaticrange of values to include
    PlotRangeClippingTruewhether to clip at the plot range
    PlotStyleAutomaticgraphics directives to determine the style of each line
    PlotTheme$PlotThemeoverall theme for the plot
    ScalingFunctionsNonehow to scale individual coordinates
    TargetUnitsAutomaticunits to display in the plot
  • DataRange determines how values {y1,…,yn} are interpreted into {{x1,y1},…,{xn,yn}}. Possible settings include:
  • Automatic,Alluniform from 1 to n
    {xmin,xmax}uniform from xmin to xmax
  • In general, a list of pairs {{x1,y1},{x2,y2},…} is interpreted as a list of points, but the setting DataRangeAll forces it to be interpreted as multiple data sources {{y11,y12},{y21,y23},…}.  »
  • LabelingFunction->f specifies that each point should have a label given by f[value,index,lbls], where value is the value associated with the point, index is its position in the data, and lbls is the list of relevant labels.
  • Typical settings for PlotLegends include:
  • Noneno legend
    Automaticautomatically determine legend
    {lbl1,lbl2,…}use lbl1, lbl2, … as legend labels
    Placed[lspec,…]specify placement for legend
  • ScalingFunctions->"scale" scales the coordinate; ScalingFunctions{"scalex","scaley"} scales both and coordinates.
