All,
I am using gglpot to produce combination density and histogram plots, which are
actually kinda cool, everything works well and the plots look nice. ?However
after each plot run I receive the following message:
stat_bin: binwidth defaulted to range/30. Use 'bin width = x' to adjust
this.
Below is the code I used to create the graph. ?I think I am pretty much
following the examples in Hadley's ggplot2 book and really just need to
eliminate the message as the graphs look fine. ?Any suggestions are appreciated.
Best Regards,
Glenn?
? Mdur.dist <- ggplot(OAS.Mdur, aes(x = value )) +
? ? geom_density(fill = "#56B4E9", colour = "#56B4E9", alpha
= .6) +
? ? geom_histogram(aes(y =..density..), color = "lightgrey", fill =
"#0072B2", bindwidth = .01) +
? ? theme_minimal() +
? ? #scale_x_continuous(breaks = seq(80,120, 5)) +
? ? labs(title = "Mod. Duration Distribution") +
? ? ylab("Density")+
? ? xlab("Path Mod. Duration") +
? ? theme(panel.grid.major = element_line(size = .25, color = "grey"))

? ? theme(axis.text = element_text(size = 15)) +
? ? theme(axis.title = element_text(size = 20)) +?
? ? theme(legend.position = "none")
Dear Glenn, Your code contains a typo: it has bindwidth instead of binwidth. Fixing that will no longer show the message. AFAIK, the message is always displayed when binwidth is not set. You can use suppressMessages() to hide them. Best regards, ir.

I don't think there is any reason to get rid of that message unless you have a presentation problem, that is, you are including that output in a paper. All that is, AFAIK, is a notice that ggplot() is using the default binning rule. You can change the number of the bins if you need more granular or more agglomerated plots. It can be fu/informative to change binwidth and see what is happening.
