Hello,
I am trying to create a series of boxplots with the following data, three
columns, "Day" (1 or 2), "Site" (1-4), and "VO2" (some values missing for
some Sites or Days)
> CorbulaMR3

I have the following code which works well except that in the legend the
fill colour for Day 1 and Day 2 is left blank. Instead the little boxes next
to the labels (Day 1, Day 2) are both unfilled (white). The boxplots are
filled properly, but without the fill colour in the legend its difficult
decipher the plot
p=ggplot(CorbulaMR3,aes(factor(Site),VO2))
p+geom_boxplot(aes(fill=factor(Day)))+scale_fill_manual('Day', breaks =
c('Day 1', 'Day 2'),
+ values = c('grey','black'),
+ labels = c('Day 1', 'Day 2'))+xlab('Sampling Site')+ylab('Metabolic
Rate')+opts(title="Sampling")
I've played around and if I don't use the scale_fill_manual() and instead
simply plot using
p+geom_boxplot(aes(fill=factor(Day)))
the legend boxes are filled, but obviously plot/legend is not labeled in the
manner I would like and I don't much care for the default colours.
Any thoughts on why when I use the scale_fill_manual() the fill colours are
not shown in the legend? I'm pretty sure its something simple.
I'm working on a Mac with R 2.12.0
Thank you,
Nate
