Ggparcoord: color using a discrete scale

Question

It seems that my graph is ggparcoordnot suitable for drawing using discrete scale. When I do this:

ggparcoord(data = iris, columns = 1:4, groupColumn = "Species")

the output graph still colors the lines using a continuous scale (using factor levels Species).

I also tried a modified version of the trick scale_color_manualindicated here: color control in ggparcoord , to no avail.

ggparcoord(data = iris, columns = 1:4, groupColumn = "Species") + 
    scale_color_manual(values = c("setosa" = "red", 
                                  "versicolor" = "green", 
                                  "virginica" = "blue"))

But I get this error message: Error: Continuous value supplied to discrete scale.

I also tried .. + scale_color_discrete(): same error message.

I'm stumped ... even the examples on the ggparcorod cran page do not work:

data(diamonds, package="ggplot2")
diamonds.samp <- diamonds[sample(1:dim(diamonds)[1],100),]
ggparcoord(data = diamonds.samp,columns = c(1,5:10),groupColumn = 2)

Error message: Error: (list) object cannot be coerced to type 'double'

Edit

mapping=aes(color=as.factor(Species)), Didzis Elferts. scale_color_discrete

ggparcoord(data = iris, columns = 1:4, mapping=aes(color=as.factor(Species))) +
        scale_color_discrete("Species", labels=levels(iris$Species) )

, scale_color_discrete("Species", labels=levels(iris$Species) ) ?

, ggplot2,

ggplot(data=iris, aes(x=Sepal.Width,y=Sepal.Length,color=Species)) + geom_point()

. ggparcoord?

Answer 1

mapping= as.factor(Species) ( as.factor() , ). scale_color_discrete() Species .

ggparcoord(data = iris, columns = 1:4, mapping=aes(color=as.factor(Species)))+
  scale_color_discrete("Species",labels=levels(iris$Species))
