Colors on box plots in ggplot
I see you creating a variable p, evaluating and printing a modified version of that variable, and then printing that variable (presumably overwriting the first plot). Are you executing your code one line at a time when troubleshooting?

Hello, I'm trying to set different boxes to different colors the following page shows http://www.sthda.com/english/wiki/ggplot2-box-plot-quick-start-guide-r-software-and-data-visualization I've tried the code ToothGrowth$dose <- as.factor(ToothGrowth$dose) head(ToothGrowth) library(ggplot2) # Basic box plot p <- ggplot(ToothGrowth, aes(x=dose, y=len)) + geom_boxplot() p+scale_color_manual(values=c("#999999", "#E69F00", "#56B4E9")) p But still can not get the colors to show up. I'm sure it is something simple I'm doing wrong and would appreciate help. Thank you in advance David [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
