| Sep 19, 2021 at 19:32 | comment | added | Dan Chaltiel | @gung R code is not really important and only showed if someone wanted to reproduce the plots, but I added some comments. However, base R is a lot less readable and few people still use it nowadays (hopefully) so I think I should stick to the tidyverse so more people can answer. You are totally right that I should present more my goals, it is a bit difficult without giving too much information about the work. I will think of something, thank you very much for the questions, they will really help me clarify. | |

| Sep 19, 2021 at 19:26 | comment | added | Dan Chaltiel | @whuber nice, this seems like a really optimized version of my second plot. It seems I'm wanting something impossible and that's what comes closest to it. Thanks! | |
| Sep 18, 2021 at 20:16 | comment | added | gung - Reinstate Monica | It's very hard to advise you on how to better present the data without knowing more about your situation. Is this for a scientific study, a business intelligence presentation, something else? What are your goals for the project? Are you checking assumptions, trying to discover insights, hoping to communicate a message to others? What are the variables? You seem to be aggregating over many different variables, does that make substantive sense? (I wouldn't average height and blood pressure.) How is it that these repeated measures aren't ordered in time? Where they simultaneous? Etc. | |

Not everyone who will come to this page will be familiar w/ R, & not all of those will be able to read tidy-code. This is a Q&A site for statistics, not R. | |

This visualization can be made to work effectively for many individuals. Unless there is some important inherent meaning to the individual's number, you will get more out of the visualization by sorting them by a useful statistic, such as their median or IQR. (To do this easily in ggplot2, use reorder on the individual's identifier.)
