Hi,

I want to thank Jeff, Dennis, c06n, and Hadley for their replies and explanations. As you probably guessed, I am fairly new to ggplot am trying to loose my lattice reflex while transitioning to ggplot.

Thank for the link to the ggplot external documentation.

You have two problems:

* geom_line() always draws from right-to-left
* you're defining colour outside of the plot in a very non-ggplot2 way.

Here's how I'd do it:

library(ggplot2)
data <- data.frame(
   x = rep(1:4, each = 25),
   y = rep(1:25, times = 4),
   g = rep(1:4, each = 25)
)
data$x <- data$x + 0.005 * data$y ^ 2 - 0.1 * data$y + 1

ggplot(data, aes(x, y, colour = factor(g))) +
   geom_point() +
   geom_path()

Hi,

Given a certain data.frame, the lattice xyplot function will plot the data
as.is and join the data point in the order of the data frame. It is my
(probably flawed) understanding that, using the same data frame, ggplot
orders the data by increasing order of the x-axis variable. Can one control
this behavior?

Thanks

Sebastien

Code example

library(lattice)
library(ggplot2)


data <- data.frame(x=rep(1:4,each=25),
                    y=rep(1:25,times=4),
                    g=rep(1:4,each=25))
data$x <- data$x + 0.005*(data$y)^2-0.1*data$y+1

col <- 3:7

xyplot(y~x,data=data,groups=g,type='l',col=col)

ggplot(data, aes(x,y,group=g)) + geom_point(colour=col[data$g]) +
   geom_line(colour=col[data$g])
