[R] grey colored lines and overwriting labels i qqplot2

[Dennis Murphy]

Hi:

I didn't save the original question, but I seem to recall it had
something to do with overlapping labels. I don't know if this is
exactly what you had in mind, but here's one approach. I named your
data frame df below.

library(ggplot2)
ggplot(df, aes(x = year, y = total)) +
     geom_point() + geom_smooth() +
     facet_grid(country ~ treatment) +
     scale_x_continuous(breaks = 1:4, labels = 1L:4L)

The L's in the label mean that integer values are meant to be printed
rather than floating point numbers. If you have a larger set of x
values whose labels overlap, you can set breaks manually inside
scale_x_continuous().

(Side note: Using geom_smooth() generates a bunch of warnings that
have to do with endpoint issues. In this case, they're fairly benign.)

HTH,
Dennis
