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.
