| alpha= | 
Alpha transparency for overlapping elements expressed as a fraction between 0 (complete transparency) and 1 (complete opacity) | 
alpha=0.5 | 
 | 
| color= | 
Associates the levels of variable with symbol color, shape, or size. For line plots, color associates levels of a variable with line color. For density and box plots, fill associates fill colors with a variable. Legends are drawn automatically. |

Character vectors specifying the title | 
 | 
 | 
| method= | 
If geom="smooth", a loess fit line and confidence limits are added by default. When the number of observations is greater than 1,000, a more efficient smoothing algorithm is employed. Methods include "lm" for regression, "gam" for generalized additive models, and "rlm" for robust regression. The formula parameter gives the form of the fit. |
