This is the 13th post in a series attempting to recreate the figures in Lattice: Multivariate Data Visualization with R (R code available here) with ggplot2.

Previous parts in this series: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6, Part 7, Part 8, Part 9, Part 10, Part 11, Part 12.

Chapter 14 – New Trellis Displays

Topics covered:

Examples of S3 and S4 methods
Examples of new high level functions

ggplot2

It should be possible to produce a similar graph in ggplot2, however I was not able to figure out how to extract the relevant data from an object of class "flowSet".
