Using geom_rect with facets
I'd like to plot a facet_grid
with unbalanced observations for the combinations of variables used for facetting, e.g.
dat <- data.frame(x = 1:6,
y = 0:5,
group = rep(c("A", "B"), each = 3),
var = rep(c("a", "a", "b"), times = 2))
> dat
group var x y
1 A a 1 0
2 A a 2 1
3 A b 3 2
4 B a 4 3
5 B a 5 4
6 B b 6 5
.. and add a geom_rect
which should be the same in each facet.
ggplot(dat) +
geom_rect(xmin = -Inf, xmax = Inf, ymin = -Inf, ymax = 3, fill = "red", alpha = .3) +
geom_point(aes(x = x, y = y)) +
facet_grid(group~var)
But it seems as if several geom_rect
s are plotted on top of each other, even though I am not using aes()
at all. How can I prevent that so that they look the same in each facet?

Since you're not really using data to plot the rects, you should use an annotate
later so it's not tied to the data or facets. For example
ggplot(dat) +
annotate("rect", xmin = -Inf, xmax = Inf, ymin = -Inf, ymax = 3, fill = "red", alpha = .3) +
geom_point(aes(x = x, y = y)) +
facet_grid(group~var)

Alternatively, supply data to the geom_rect
layer:
ggplot(dat) +
geom_rect(aes_all(vars = c('xmin', 'xmax', 'ymin', 'ymax')), fill = "red", alpha = .3,
data.frame(xmin = -Inf, xmax = Inf, ymin = -Inf, ymax = 3)) +
geom_point(aes(x = x, y = y)) +
facet_grid(group~var)
Thanks for spotting the mistake @MarioBecerra!
