Hello, I am trying to generate a set of boxplots using ggplot with the following data with 4 columns (Day, Site, VO2, Cruise)
AllCorbulaMR Day Site VO2 Cruise 1 1 1 148.43632670 1 2 1 1 61.73864969 1 3 1 1 92.64536096 1 4 1 1 73.35434957 1 5 1 1 69.85568810 1 6 1 1 98.71116866 1 7 1 1 67.57880107 1 8 1 1 80.57959160 1 9 1 1

and VO2 on the y-axis and with the fill colour specified by the Cruise. I have the following code p=ggplot(AllCorbulaMR,aes(factor(Site),VO2)) p+geom_boxplot(aes(fill=factor(Cruise)))+scale_fill_manual('Cruise', values=(colours()[c(375,577,573,439)]), breaks=c(1,2,3,4), labels=c('Cruise 1', 'Cruise 2', 'Cruise 3', 'Cruise 4'))+xlab('Sampling Site')+ylab(expression("Metabolic Rate " (mu*moles*~O[2]*~mg^-1*~hr^-1)))+opts(title="Corbula Cruises")+ylim(c(0,0.2)) The issue I have at the moment is that only Cruises 2 and 3 are plotted correctly. The other two are not shown or the boxes are plotted as single horizontal lines. I also get a warning that 129 rows containing missing data were removed (probably explaining the missing boxplots). I have a few missing data points (specified NA), but not 129. Can anyone see an error in the code I have that would explain why some rows of data are being disregarded?
