Hi Arthur: # Just move size outside 'aes' like this: p <- ggplot(df1, aes(Year, PctProf, group = Group)) p + geom_line(aes(color = Group),size=1)
# to make the background white just use the black and white theme: p <- ggplot(df1, aes(Year, PctProf, group = Group)) p + geom_line(aes(color = Group),size=1) + theme_bw() Felipe D.
