Positions

6 positions

All positions

• identity no positionParams · 48 geoms · default for 42 Leave mark coordinates unchanged. Default for most geoms: each mark keeps its post-stat (x, y).
• stack no positionParams · 4 geoms · default for 4 Stack groups at each x slot so heights accumulate (positive up, negative down). Default for bar, col, histogram, and area; trains the scale on stacked totals.
• fill no positionParams · 4 geoms Stack groups then rescale each x slot to proportions (positive and negative runs separately). Same geom set as stack; y domain becomes proportions.
• dodge no positionParams · 6 geoms · default for 2 Place groups side by side within each x band instead of overlapping. Default for boxplot and violin; used when comparing categories at the same x.
• jitter params: width, height, seed · 3 geoms · default for 1 Add seeded random offsets so overplotted points separate. Configure with positionParams width/height/seed (always seeded for reproducibility).
• nudge params: x, y · 4 geoms Apply a fixed offset (positionParams.x / y) per mark — useful for labels beside points. Offsets are data units or band-step fractions.

How to set a position

Pass the position prop on a geom shell. Only values listed on that geom's Geoms page validate. Omit it to use the geom default.

import { GGPlot, GeomBar } from "@ggsvelte/svelte";

<GGPlot data={rows} aes={{ x: "category", fill: "group" }}>
  <GeomBar position="dodge" />
</GGPlot>
