Does anyone know of a way to place the dots of grouped swarmplots, on their respective boxplot? As it is right now, the grouping causes the dots to appear on the midline of the two groups (see attached image).
Code:
sns.set(rc={'figure.figsize':(15.7,8.27)})
ax = sns.boxplot(data=mice_20191203, x="group", y="engraft", showfliers = False, hue="status")
ax = sns.swarmplot(data=mice_20191203, x="group", y="engraft", color=".25", size=6)
ax.set_title(label='K562 cells in NSG mice', fontsize=20)
ax.set_xlabel(xlabel='injected cells', fontsize=16)
ax.set_ylabel(ylabel='human CD45 (%)', fontsize=16)
plt.xticks(rotation=30)
plt.show()
Thanks a bunch in advance!
In addition to using
hue=
, you have to usedodge=True
in the call toswarmplot
. See the documentation for swarmplot.
