r - Plotting minor breaks on a log scale with ggplot -
to ggplot plot minor breaks correctly on logarithmic scale, had thing:
faceplant1 <- function(x) {     return (c(x[1]*10^.25, x[2]/10^.25)) } faceplant2 <- function(x) {     return (rep(seq(1,9),5)*rep(10^seq(-6,-2), each=9)) } ggplot(mydata, aes(x=myseries)) +     geom_density() +     scale_x_log10(limits=c(1e-6, 1e-1),                   breaks=10^seq(-6,-1),                   minor_breaks=trans_breaks(faceplant1, faceplant2, n=45))   is there simpler way achieve this?
the end result should like:

here's solution problem:
library(ggplot2)  log10_minor_break = function (...){   function(x) {     minx         = floor(min(log10(x), na.rm=t))-1;     maxx         = ceiling(max(log10(x), na.rm=t))+1;     n_major      = maxx-minx+1;     major_breaks = seq(minx, maxx, by=1)     minor_breaks =        rep(log10(seq(1, 9, by=1)), times = n_major)+       rep(major_breaks, each = 9)     return(10^(minor_breaks))   } }  mydata = data.frame(myseries = 10^(rnorm(1e4, mean=0, sd=0.5)))  myplot =    ggplot(mydata, aes(x=myseries))+   geom_density()+   scale_x_log10(minor_breaks=log10_minor_break())+   theme(panel.grid.major.x = element_line(size=1.0),         panel.grid.minor.x = element_line(size=2))  myplot   it similar you've done applies generally. , minor improvement: expand minor breaks below 1e-6 , above1e-1 in example.
i have started looking @ function trans_break , reduced fundamental element.
it worth considering annotation_logticks() function:
myplot+annotation_logticks(side="b")
