I'm designing a set of plots intended for a general audience; here's the code
for one of them, using the latest version of ggplot:
plot.enr.all <-
ggplot(data=df1, aes(x=HS_GRAD_YEAR, y=Percentage, group=Enrolled_by,
color=Enrolled_by, shape=Enrolled_by, fill=Enrolled_by))
+
geom_line() + geom_point(size=3.5) +
scale_y_continuous(breaks=seq(0, 100, 10), limits=c(0, 100),
labels=paste(seq(0, 100, 10), "%", sep="")) +
scale_color_manual(values=c("orange", "red"),
breaks=c("PCT_ENR_FALL1", "PCT_ENR_FALL2"),
labels=c("1st fall", "2nd fall")) +
scale_fill_manual(values=c("orange", "red"),
breaks=c("PCT_ENR_FALL1", "PCT_ENR_FALL2"),
labels=c("1st fall", "2nd fall")) +
scale_shape_manual(values=c(21, 22),
breaks=c("PCT_ENR_FALL1", "PCT_ENR_FALL2"),
labels=c("1st fall", "2nd fall")) +
opts(title="Postsecondary Enrollment Rates of High School Graduates",
legend.position="bottom", axis.title.y=theme_blank()) +
guides(fill=guide_legend(nrow=1)) + xlab("Graduation year")
The legend on the resulting plot uses "Enrolled_by" for a title. I'd like it to
be able to use "Enrolled by" without the underscore, but thus far I've been
unable to get ggplot to use a variable name containing a space. Is there a
straightforward way of doing so?
