Hi all,

I have a question about setting arbitrary breaks/labels when using GGPLOT
and date/time data on the x-axis. I want to specify the breaks/limits
arbitrarily rather than using scale_x_date(major = 'blah'), much like when
arbitrarily defining breaks/labels using scale_x_discrete(breaks = blah,
labels = blah)

I have tried variants such as:

scale_x_date(major = seq(from = as.Date('2000-01-01'), to  =
as.Date('2009-01-01'), by = 'months'));

etc but can't get this to work. I want to arbitrarily define the
breaks/labels because I want to be able to control when the ticks/labels
start (i.e. I want to be able to set where the first and last ticks/labels
occur - you do not appear to be able to do this using the major = 'blah'
command under scale_x_date).

R-version: 2.9.2
ggplotversion: 0.8.5
OS: Windows 7

Many thanks,

Liam
