Hi, thanks I changed slightly the code to be reproducible from everyone . I have tried ggplot but I need a bit of help to tweak it a bit
So you can run the following in your computer testData<-matrix(data=round(runif(25)),nrow=5,ncol=5,dimnames=list(1:5,1:5)) p<-ggplot(melt(testData), aes(Var2,Var1, fill=value))+xlab("MHz") + ylab("Threshold") + geom_raster() p What I want to improve is a: make the colorbar so only two specific colors lets say black and white and only two values 0 and 1 and somewhere the string as title of the color bar "text" to appear. I have tried something like p+ scale_color_gradient(low="red",high="blue") Fehler in unit(tic_pos.c, "mm") : 'x' and 'units' must have length > 0 ggplot(melt(testData), aes(Var2,Var1, fill=value,colorbin=2))+xlab("MHz") + ylab("Threshold") + geom_raster() but this did not affect colorbar entries. b. reduce/remove the grayish border that appears between the legend and the image plot Could you please help me with these two?

None of your attachments arrived. The str() info is useful but please supply some sample data The easiest way to supply data is to use the dput() function. Example with your file named "testfile": dput(testfile) Then copy the output and paste into your email. For large data sets, you can just supply a representative sample. Usually, dput(head(testfile, 100)) will be sufficient. How are you writing the code/or what format is the original email. Your code in the body of the text is badly messed up -- you probably need to post only in text. HTML etc is automatically dropped.
