[ONKELINX, Thierry]

Have you looked at scale_size_continuous()?

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to say what the experiment died of.

Onderwerp: bubble size on geom_point

 

Dear all,

 

I am trying to make a scatter plot, but want to add a third continuous variable as bubble size. 

 

I can do that easily with size=variable, but now I would like to control better the minimum and maximum size of the bubbles (as some are hard to see) and would like to see if change the number of bubble sizes as well.

 

if anyone could give me an hint on how to do this, that would be great!

 

thanks

Hi Thierry,

thank you very much for your help, 

using scale_size_continuous() with the arguments "breaks" and "to" solved my problem!
