[R] Order labels in qplot() - ggplot2 {help}

[baptiste auguie]

Hi,

You could reorder the factor levels before plotting,

x$n = factor(x$n, levels=c("va","vp", letters[1:3]))

last_plot() %+% x

or you could avoid using factors in the first place,

 x <- data.frame(cbind(n,p,pm,pn), stringsAsFactors=FALSE)

last_plot() %+% x

HTH,

baptiste
