I'm doing an scatter plot using ggplot. I would like to have points with a particular colour and fill (in plot, colour="blue", fill="cyan4", for ex.) but I can't find how. What I have to this point is:
ggplot(df, aes(own,method)) + panel.configuration + scale_shape_identity() + #to use the 'plot' shape format. geom_point(aes(color = factor(label)), position = "jitter",size=3) + (In previous geom_pointI tried adding shape=21 as I would have done in plot)
scale_colour_manual(values=c("A"="chocolate3","B"="cyan4")) + scale_fill_manual(values=c("A"="green", "B"="red")) + #DOES NOTHING... xlim(7,47) + ylim(7,47)+ ... etc. This is what i get without "shape=21"

This is what I get when I add "shape=21". In both cases it ignores scale_fill 
I also tried adding fill=c("blue","red") in geom_point, but R complains: "Error: Incompatible lengths for set aesthetics: shape, size, fill".
Any suggestions about how to get it? What is wrong with scale_fill in my code?
Thank you very much!
Data (df) looks like:
21 15 A 24 16 A 24 17 A 28 14 A 24 15 A 22 15 A 20 18 A 24 18 A 34 9 B 38 12 B 41 19 B 42 13 B 36 12 B 40 17 B 41 14 B 37 12 B 40 13 B 37 15 B 35 15 B
To change the border color of box of a base R plot, we can use box function with col argument where we can pass the color other than black because black is the default color.
The function geom_point() adds a layer of points to your plot, which creates a scatterplot.
Generally, fill defines the colour with which a geom is filled, whereas colour defines the colour with which a geom is outlined (the shape's "stroke", to use Photoshop language).
Because you are using the same color for all the titles, you can also use title = element_text(colour = "#7F3D17") which should set the color of the plot title, axis titles and legend title to the same color.
You'll have to use shapes from 21 to 25. These are the ones that have colour and fill properties:
ggplot(df, aes(own, method)) + geom_point(colour="white", shape=21, size = 4, aes(fill = factor(label))) + scale_fill_manual(values=c("blue", "cyan4")) If you want different colours for colour as well, then:
ggplot(df, aes(own, method)) + geom_point(aes(colour=factor(label), fill = factor(label)), shape=21, size = 4) + scale_fill_manual(values=c("blue", "cyan4")) + scale_colour_manual(values=c("white", "black"))
