Hi

I am trying to understand how to use ggplot2 to plot multiple time-series in 
one single graphics.  In order to do so, I have modified the example given at 
http://docs.ggplot2.org/current/guide_legend.html to use my own data.

Here is the script so far


# Script for plotting all variables

rm(list=ls())
graphics.off()

## ---- Q1 ----

library(ggplot2);
library(gridExtra)
require(timeDate)
require(reshape2)

ind <- seq(1,1000)

modelnames <- c("PRO1_PXXS_F_MODEL_1",
                "PRO2_PXXS_F_MODEL_2",
                "PRO3_PXXS_F_MODEL_3",
                "PRO4_PXXS_F_MODEL_4",
                "Real_Data")

# Create the time vector

Time<-as.POSIXct(timeSequence(from="2014-05-09 
18:43:00",length.out=length(ind), 
                              by="mins"))

# Create variable
aux=cbind(runif(length(ind),min=2300,max=2700),runif(length(ind),min=3200,max=3700),
          
runif(length(ind),min=2600,max=2800),runif(length(ind),min=2300,max=2400),
          runif(length(ind),min=2700,max(3300)))
resmodMay=data.frame(id=Time,aux);
colnames(resmodMay)=c("Time",modelnames);
meltdf<-melt(resmodMay, id="Time")

## ---- Q2 ----

# Plot 

g<-ggplot(meltdf,aes(x=Time,y=value,colour=variable,group=variable))
g<-g+geom_line()+labs(title = "Some plots")
g<-g+xlab("Date")+ylab("Value of the variable")+scale_fill_discrete(guide = 
guide_legend(title = "V"))
print(g)

## ---- Q3 ----

# One Solution

meltdfm<-melt(resmodMay, id="Time")
colnames(meltdfm)[2]<-"Models"
g1<-ggplot(meltdfm,aes(x=Time,y=value,colour=Models,group=Models))
g1<-g1+geom_line()+labs(title = "Some plots")
g1<-g1+xlab("Date")+ylab("Value of the variable")+scale_fill_discrete(guide = 
guide_legend(title = "V"))
print(g1)


On the top of the legends ggplot2 writes "variable"; I need to change that and 
also need to increase the size of the legends (fonts size, symbols, 
everything).  As you can see I have a solution for the first problem (title of 
the legend), but that is not the type of solution I want.   I was thinking of 
using  ggplot2 layers to change that.  Something like that last line on ##---- 
Q2 -----, which unfortunately it does not work (even though is given as example 
on ggplot2 documentation - It is likely that I have misread the example).  

Any help will be most appreciated.

Ed
