Dear,

To draw something like the below, I have been using Thinkcell, a Microsoft Office plugin, after cleansing the data in R.

I hope ggannotate library would allow a user to add the reference line to show a % difference like the below.

Thanks.

Reference Line

Hi, thanks for filing an issue. I'm unclear about which aspect of this plot you want to be able to add using ggannotate. Could you please clarify? Thanks

Hi @bongho thanks again for filing an issue, but I don't think ggannotate is well-suited to the task you have in mind. ggannotate is a tool to help you place ggplot2 geoms - like labels, or curves - on plots. As far as I know there is no ggplot2 geom that corresponds to what you have in mind, so ggannotate is no help.
