## Not run:
(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))
# For lines, you need to tell that you want lines on the legend
(p <- qplot(mpg, cyl, data=mtcars, size=cyl, geom="line"))
p + scale_size(guide="line")
