Trying to assing each variable colour by creating my own colour palette, but some of the colours get mixed up. Any ideas on how I should fix this?
cor.partidos <- c(
`ps` = "#f71b75",
`psd` = "#ef6438",
`pcp-pev` = "#ff001d",
`pan` = "#71af64",
`outros` = "#f71b75",
`nulos` = "#565557",
`brancos` = "#aaa8ad",
`l` = "#f71b75",
`il` = "#f71b75",
`ch` = "#393195",
`cds-pp` = "#1192d8",
`be` = "#b40020",
`a` = "#f71b75")
#test graph
bars <- ggplot(leg19, aes(x = partido, y = votos)) +
geom_bar(stat="identity",
position="identity",
fill = cor.partidos) +
geom_hline(yintercept = 0, size = 1, colour="#333333") +
bbc_style() +
theme(axis.text=element_text(size=10))+
labs(subtitle = "Resultados Legislativas 2019",
ylab = "votos")
update with a mwe
It will work if the variables in the pallet are in the same order as the dataframe but if you mix it around a bit it won't work. Changing it to aes(fill = cor.partidos)
won't work :(
test.pallet <- c(
`pink` = "#f71b75",
`orange` = "#ef6438",
`green` = "#71af64",
`red` = "#ff001d",
`other pink` = "#f71b72")
test.datafrane <- data_frame(
name = c("pink","orange","red","green","other pink"),
value = c(1,2,3,4,5)
)
test.datafrane$value <- as.numeric(test.datafrane$value)
test.graph <- ggplot(test.datafrane, aes(x = name, y = value)) +
geom_bar(stat="identity",
position="identity",
fill = test.pallet)
test.graph
As I suggested in my comment you could achieve your result by mapping your categorical var on fill
inside aes() and make use of scale_fill_manual
:
test.pallet <- c(
`pink` = "#f71b75",
`orange` = "#ef6438",
`green` = "#71af64",
`red` = "#ff001d",
`other pink` = "#f71b72")
test.datafrane <- data.frame(
name = c("pink","orange","red","green","other pink"),
value = c(1,2,3,4,5)
)
test.datafrane$value <- as.numeric(test.datafrane$value)
library(ggplot2)
test.graph <- ggplot(test.datafrane, aes(x = name, y = value, fill = name)) +
geom_bar(stat="identity",
position="identity") +
scale_fill_manual(values = test.pallet)
test.graph
