I can never remember how to rotate the x-axis labels with ggplot2: theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 90, hjust = 1, vjust = 0.5))
# Adapted from https://stackoverflow.com/a/7267364/1036500 by Andrie de Vries
# This is it: theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 90, hjust = 1, vjust = 0.5))
library(ggplot2)
td <- expand.grid(
hjust=c(0, 0.5, 1),
vjust=c(0, 0.5, 1),
angle=c(0, 45, 90),
