ggplot2, facet_grid, free scales?

Question

In the following example, how do I get the y-axis limits to scale according to the data in each panel?

mt <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg, wt, colour = factor(c         


        

Answer 1

Perhaps it's because you have only one y axis, using your way. Did you try something like this?

mt + facet_grid(cyl ~ ., scales="free")

Answer 2

Hopefully, this helps.

mt + facet_wrap(. ~ cyl, scales="free_y")

Answer 3

If you come looking for a python implementation, you need sharex=False, sharey=False.

g = sns.FacetGrid(df,  row='row_col_name' col="col_col_name",sharex=False,sharey=False)

Answer 4

You can't. See here

You can use facet_wrap instead, which will 'free' both axes
