Hi Tom, The problem was that the bars have width 22.5, so setting the limits to c(0, 360) chopped off the last bar. To get around that, you needed to add half a bar width (11.25) to the start and end limits, and then rotate the polar coordinate system so that 0 lines up again.
ggplot(wind.data, aes(x = degree, y = time, fill = wind)) + geom_bar(stat = "identity", aes(width = 22.5)) + scale_x_continuous(limits = c(0 + 11.25, 360 + 11.25), breaks = c(90, 180, 270, 360)) + coord_polar(start = 11.25 / 180 * pi) + scale_fill_brewer(pal = "Blues") Or now I've correctly identified the problem, we don't need to manually set the limits: ggplot(wind.data, aes(x = degree, y = time, fill = wind)) + geom_bar(stat = "identity", aes(width = 22.5)) + scale_x_continuous(breaks = c(90, 180, 270, 360)) + coord_polar(start = 11.25 / 180 * pi) + scale_fill_brewer(pal = "Blues") Hadley On Sun, Dec 6, 2009 at 7:30 PM, Thomas S.
