X and Y back axis using geom_ribbon in ggplot2

You can use geom_ribbon from the ggplot2 package, but with a range built horizontally and not vertically. It would be trivial if "geom_ribbon" suggested xmin / xmax options, but it is not.

Here are my data, a simplified charting function and the resulting figure. Therefore, in this example, I would like the axis "depth" to be displayed vertically.

prof <- read.table(text = " depth prop mean error
1 5 FALSE 2.12 0.035
2 15 FALSE 2.06 0.035
3 25 FALSE 1.54 0.035
4 35 FALSE 0.92 0.033
5 45 FALSE 0.71 0.028
6 55 FALSE 0.60 0.026
7 65 FALSE 0.54 0.024
8 75 FALSE 0.49 0.023
9 85 FALSE 0.46 0.022
10 95 FALSE 0.43 0.022
11 105 FALSE 0.41 0.022
12 115 FALSE 0.39 0.021
13 5 TRUE 2.18 0.061
14 15 TRUE 2.11 0.061
15 25 TRUE 1.58 0.054
16 35 TRUE 0.97 0.047
17 45 TRUE 0.76 0.042
18 55 TRUE 0.67 0.043
19 65 TRUE 0.61 0.040
20 75 TRUE 0.54 0.033
21 85 TRUE 0.48 0.028
22 95 TRUE 0.45 0.027
23 105 TRUE 0.43 0.025
24 115 TRUE 0.40 0.022", header=TRUE)

ggplot(prof, aes(colour = prop, fill = prop)) + 
  geom_ribbon(aes(x = depth, ymin = mean-error, ymax = mean+error), 
  alpha = 0.6, colour = NA)

Look at coord_flip (). This is unchecked because you did not provide the data in a convenient format. Send dput output (your.data.frame) to provide data.

ggplot(prof, aes(x = depth, ymin = mean - error, ymax = mean + error, 
    fill = prop)) + geom_ribbon() + coord_flip()
