Usage

scale_colour_tableau(
  palette = "Tableau 10",
  type = "regular",
  direction = 1,
  ...
)

scale_fill_tableau(
  palette = "Tableau 10",
  type = "regular",
  direction = 1,
  ...
)

scale_color_tableau(

  direction = 1,
  ...
)

Examples

library("ggplot2")

p <- ggplot(mtcars) +
  geom_point(aes(x = wt, y = mpg, colour = factor(gear))) +
  facet_wrap(~am) +
  theme_igray()

palettes <- ggthemes_data[["tableau"]][["color-palettes"]][["regular"]]
for (palette in head(names(palettes), 3L)) {
  print(p + scale_colour_tableau(palette) +
          ggtitle(palette))
}

# the order of colour can be reversed
p + scale_color_tableau(direction = -1)
