ggplot线图不同部分使用不同颜色

Question

我想在ggplot中绘制不同数据组之间的连续线。我的数据集有三个数据组1、2或3。

ggplot(Dataset_v2.2.clusterplot, aes(Date, Number_IPOs, color = factor(label)))+
  geom_point()+
  geom_line()

我的问题是对于绿色的第二组，数据分布在不同的时间间隔中，因此ggplot将它们连接起来。实际上，ggplot根据color命令使我的数据变成了三条线，而最初只有一条线如下：

是否有一种方法可以基于三个组的颜色着色线条，而不会在组之间产生中断并在组内（当它们分散时）相互连接？

以下是所需翻译的数据:

是的，它有！感谢您提供了这个简单易行的解决方案！我认为我无意中使用了因子，因为当我有一个不适合颜色函数的数据格式时，只要我使用因子，它就行了。 - SCW16

Answer 1

geom_path更适合用于连接点的情况：http://ggplot2.tidyverse.org/reference/geom_path.html。正如在那里解释的那样：

"geom_path按照数据中出现的顺序连接观测值。"

我发现对于因子有些奇怪，就像你这里一样。以下是您可能期望函数看起来像的示例：

ggplot(Dataset_v2.2.clusterplot, aes(Date, Number_IPOs, color = factor(label)))+
  geom_path() +
  geom_point()

一个简单的解决方法是在 geom_path 的 aes 中为该线路指定一个组别。由于您想要一个连续的线，我只指定了1（这个值是任意的，可以是任何数）。

ggplot(Dataset_v2.2.clusterplot, aes(Date, Number_IPOs, color = factor(label)))+
  geom_path(aes(group = 1)) +
  geom_point()
