Customizing Legend with Box for Representing Specific Economic Events in R Plotting
# Adding a Box to the Legend to Represent US Recessions ## Solution Overview We will modify the existing code to add a box in the legend that represents US recessions. We'll use the `fill` aesthetic inside `aes()` and then assign the fill value outside `geom_rect()` using `scale_fill_manual()`. ## Step 1: Assign Fill Inside aes() ```r ggplot() + geom_rect(aes(xmin=c(as.Date("2001-03-01"),as.Date("2007-12-01")), xmax=c(as.Date("2001-11-30"),as.Date("2009-06-30")), ymin=c(-Inf, -Inf), ymax=c(Inf, Inf), fill = "US Recessions"),alpha=0.2) + Step 2: Assign Breaks and Values for Scale Fill Manual scale_fill_manual("", breaks = "US Recessions", values ="black")+ Step 3: Add Geom Line and Labs + geom_line(data=values.
