A seemingly simple problem has me stumped. Is it possible to choose the
number of colour breaks for a gradient scale in the current version of
ggplot2?
Here is a simple example:
---------------------------------------------
x=-10:10
y=-10:10
dat=expand.grid(x=x,y=y)
dat$z=dat$x^2+dat$y^2-100
ggplot(dat, mapping=aes(x=x, y=y, fill=z)) +
geom_tile() + scale_fill_gradient2()
---------------------------------------------
The image shows many (61) colours, but only 5 of them are shown in the
legend. How do I change the legend to show, say, 10 colours?
