I want to simplify my x-axis by using breaks for the coordinates

enter image description here

I'm actually using this code:

ggline(myr_mass, x = "Latitude", y = "body_mass", color = "Taxa",
       add = c("mean_se", "dotplot"))+
  theme_bw()+
    rotate_x_text(45)

This plot suggests your data is not being read in as numbers. You need to look into how your reading it in (`read.csv`?) and fix that before looking at plotting them. For confirmation, `str(myr_mass)` should show `num` (real/float/numeric/double) or `int` (integer) for your x-axis variable. – r2evans Jun 09 '20 at 20:11

I think you need to convert Latitude to numeric. It is a factor or character at the moment. Try `myr_mass$Latitude <- as.numeric(as.character(myr_mass$Latitude))` then repeat the plot. – Allan Cameron Jun 09 '20 at 20:12

... and look at how it's being imported/read-in so that you don't have to do that every time and with every (related/similar) dataset. – r2evans Jun 09 '20 at 20:13
You're using the `ggpubr` package? – r2evans Jun 09 '20 at 20:14
