I would like to combine a colour scale gradient for the points on a scatter plot together with a colour scale gradient for some text that goes on the plot. I can do them separately as shown in my example below, but i can't seem to put them together...is there a way of doing this?
Here is my example code of the two types of plots (p and p1) that I want to combine
l <- data.frame(prev=rnorm(1266),
aft=rnorm(1266),
day=as.factor(wday(sample(c(2:6),1266,replace=TRUE),abbr=TRUE, label=TRUE)),
month=as.factor(month(Sys.Date()+months(sample(0:11,1266,replace=TRUE)),abbr=TRUE, label=TRUE)),
ind=c(1:1266))
cors <- ddply(l, c("month", "day"), summarise, cor = round(cor(prev, aft), 3))
# below the text gains the colour gradient
p <- ggplot(l, aes(x=prev, y=aft)) +
geom_point() +
scale_colour_gradient(low = "red", high="blue")+
facet_grid(day~month, scales="free_x")+
geom_text(data=cors,aes(label=paste("r= ",cor,sep=""), size=abs(cor), colour=cor), x=Inf, y=Inf, vjust=1, hjust=1, show_guide=FALSE)+
geom_hline(aes(yintercept=0))+
geom_smooth(method="loess")
p
# below the points gain the colour gradient
p1 <- ggplot(l, aes(x=prev, y=aft)) +
geom_point(aes(colour=ind)) +
scale_colour_gradient("gray")+
facet_grid(day~month, scales="free_x")+
geom_text(data=cors,aes(label=paste("r= ",cor,sep=""), size=abs(cor), colour=cor), x=Inf, y=Inf, vjust=1, hjust=1, show_guide=FALSE)+
geom_hline(aes(yintercept=0))+
opts(legend.position="none") +
geom_smooth(method="loess")
p1
