I have some four category variables coded: strongly approve, approve,
disapprove, and strongly disapprove. I'd like to construct bar graphs to
show frequency distributions for each variable by categories of a second
(3
category) variable. I can do this with catplot but I'd like something a
little different. I'd like to show the frequencies in two stacked bars:
one
showing approve and strongly approve and the other disapprove and
strongly
disapprove. This way readers can easily see the percentages approving
and
disapproving as well as strength. Can anyone suggest how to construct
such a
partially stacked bar graph? It's easy to show separate bars for each of
the
four categories or a single stacked bar but I can't see how to show two
partial bars.
