Consider the following:
fakedata = RandomReal[{4, 9}, {5, 10}];
BarChart[fakedata, BarSpacing -> {0, 0.4},
ChartBaseStyle -> EdgeForm[],
ChartStyle -> {{Magenta, Blue, Red, Orange, Green}, Opacity[#] & /@ Range[0.1, 1, 0.1]}]
This is all well and good, but what I really want is the following, but grouped, so that the bars are opaque, the ticks come out how I want them, and the little space in between the groups (from the BarSpacing
option) shows up:
BarChart[Flatten@fakedata, BarSpacing -> {0, 0.4},
ChartBaseStyle -> EdgeForm[],
ChartStyle ->
Flatten@Outer[Blend[{{0, White}, {0.7, #1}, {1.1, Black}}, #2] &, {Magenta,
Blue, Red, Orange, Green}, Range[0.1, 1, 0.1]]]
Unfortunately if I create a "matrix" of colours as the value of the ChartStyle
option, only the second list is picked up, and I get this:
BarChart[fakedata, BarSpacing -> {0, 0.4},
ChartBaseStyle -> EdgeForm[],
ChartStyle -> Outer[Blend[{{0, White}, {0.7, #1}, {1.1, Black}}, #2] &, {Magenta,
Blue, Red, Orange, Green}, Range[0.1, 1, 0.1]]]
How can I style my bars individually like in the second example, when the data are grouped?
Answer
fakedata = RandomReal[{4, 9}, {5, 10}];
styles = Outer[Blend[{{0, White}, {0.7, #1}, {1.1, Black}}, #2] &, {Magenta, Blue,
Red, Orange, Green}, Range[0.1, 1, 0.1]];
BarChart[MapThread[Style, {fakedata, styles}, 2] (*thanks: Verbeia & Mr.Wizard *),
BarSpacing -> {0, 0.4}, ChartBaseStyle -> EdgeForm[]]
Alternatively, one replace MapThread[...]
by :
Partition[Inner[Style, Flatten@fakedata, Flatten@styles, List], 10] (* thanks: VLC *)
(* or *)
ArrayReshape[Inner[Style, Flatten@fakedata, Flatten@styles, List], {5, 10}] (* Version 9 *)
Update: Using ChartElementFunction
cedFX[{{xmin_, xmax_}, {ymin_, ymax_}}, ___] := {Dynamic@
Blend[{{0, White}, {0.7, CurrentValue["Color"]}, {1.1, Black}},
((1/10) Mod[xmin - .4 Quotient[xmin, 10], 10])],
Rectangle[{xmin, ymin}, {xmax, ymax}]};
BarChart[fakedata, BarSpacing -> {0, 0.4}, ChartBaseStyle -> EdgeForm[],
ChartElementFunction -> cedFX,
ChartStyle -> {{Magenta, Blue, Red, Orange, Green}, None}]
(Note: needs better tuning of the blending parameter as a function of xmin
,xmax
and the value of the BarSpacing
option)
