[R] ggplot percent format for interest rates

[John Kane]

Hi Glenn,
I don't understand what you are after. If I run your code I get two figures to the right of the decimal point.  Can you give us an example of the layout you want? Clearly I am missing the point. 

Note I removed the palate command from the code,

ggplot(SwapCurve, aes(x = Tenor, y= Rate/100, colour = "#E69F00")) +
  geom_line() +
  geom_line(size = 1.5) +
  ylab("Fixed Rate Payer Side") +
  xlab("Maturity (years)") +
  theme_minimal()+
  theme(panel.grid.major = element_line(size = .25, color = "grey")) +
  theme(axis.text = element_text(size = 15)) +
  theme(axis.title = element_text(size = 20)) +
  theme(legend.text=element_text(size= 15))
