R help - Oct 2007 - Axis value as percentage

Hello,

I am using ggplot2 to display some distributions, I my data, there are
percentages represented as 0.10, 0.13, ...

I now want to do the axis show "5%", "10%", "15%",
...

Is there is simple way to do this? I tried to use scale_y_prob(), but I
didn't get through it.

Thanks and regards,
 Christoph

Not easily - but you can use the breaks and labels arguments to
scale_y_continuous to control the exact appearance of the labels,
e.g.:

breaks <- seq(0, 1, by=0.05)
+ scale_y_continuous(breaks = breaks, labels = paste(breaks * 100,
"%", sep=""))

The probability scale is used for scaling by inverse probability
distributions, so isn't useful here.
