\description{Size scale for continuous variable}
\details{
This page describes scale\_size\_continuous, see \code{\link{layer}} and \code{\link{qplot}} for how to create a complete plot from individual components.
}
\usage{scale_size_continuous(name = NULL, limits = NULL, breaks = NULL,
labels = NULL, trans = NULL, to = c(1, 6), legend = TRUE,
...)}
\arguments{
\item{name}{name of scale to appear in legend or on axis. Maybe be an expression: see ?plotmath}
\item{limits}{numeric vector of length 2, giving the extent of the scale}
\item{breaks}{numeric vector indicating where breaks should lie}
\item{labels}{character vector giving labels associated with breaks}
\item{trans}{a transformer to use}
\item{to}{a numeric vector of length 2 that specifies the minimum and maximum size of the plotting symbol after transformation.}
\item{legend}{NULL}
\item{...}{other arguments}
}

\item \code{\link{scale_manual}}: for sizing discrete variables

\examples{\dontrun{
(p <- qplot(mpg, cyl, data=mtcars, size=cyl))
p + scale_size("cylinders")
p + scale_size("number\nof\ncylinders")
p + scale_size(to = c(0, 10))
p + scale_size(to = c(1, 2))
# Map area, instead of width/radius
# Perceptually, this is a little better
p + scale_area()
p + scale_area(to = c(1, 25))
# Also works with factors, but not a terribly good
# idea, unless your factor is ordered, as in this example
qplot(mpg, cyl, data=mtcars, size=factor(cyl))
# To control the size mapping for discrete variable, use
# scale_size_manual:
last_plot() + scale_size_manual(values=c(2,4,6))
