coord_flip(...)
}
\arguments{
\item{...}{Other arguments passed onto \code{\link{coord_cartesian}}}
}
\description{
Flipped cartesian coordinates so that horizontal becomes vertical, and
vertical, horizontal. This is primarily useful for converting geoms and
statistics which display y conditional on x, to x conditional on y.
}
\examples{
\donttest{
# Very useful for creating boxplots, and other interval
# geoms in the horizontal instead of vertical position.
ggplot(diamonds, aes(cut, price)) +
  geom_boxplot()
last_plot() + coord_flip()

ggplot(diamonds, aes(cut)) +
  geom_bar()
last_plot() + coord_flip()

h <- ggplot(diamonds, aes(carat)) +
  geom_histogram()
h
h + coord_flip()
h + coord_flip() + scale_x_reverse()

# You can also use it to flip lines and area plots:
df <- data.frame(x = 1:5, y = (1:5)^2)
ggplot(df, aes(x, y)) +
 geom_area()
last_plot() + coord_flip()
}
