labeling x-axis

[JMK]

Hello,

I want to label the x-axis or the actual line -- shown in my
reproducible example as the "99th percentile".

any ideas?


thanks,

Josh

test=data.frame(a=c(rlnorm(120,0.00119,.01),6))#create data
p=ggplot(test,aes(x=a)) +geom_histogram()#create histogram
quantile(test$a,.99)#get 99th percentile#find 99th percentile
p +geom_vline(xintercept=1.031367,colour="grey60")#put grey line on
99th percentile

You could add it to the x labels or you could use geom_text

+ geom_text(aes(x=1.031367,y=75),label="99th Percentile line",hjust=-0.05)

thanks James,

I adjusted the text color and position.

+geom_vline(xintercept=1.031367,colour="grey60")+
geom_text(aes(x=1.031367,y=-2),label="99th",hjust=-0.05,colour="grey60")
