title: How do I use scale_colour_manual?
body: <p>Does anyone know any bugs/tricks when using scale_colour_manual to set colors to predefined settings based on HEX color codes contained in your data frame?</p>
  
  <p>I have been trying to to use the following code to pull predefined color codes from my data frame. </p>
  
  <pre><code>p &lt;- ggplot(df, aes(x, y, colour=company)) 
  p &lt;- p + geom_point()
  p &lt;- p + scale_colour_manual(breaks=df$company, values = df$col)
  p
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, for some reason when the plot is rendered the colors that are in the data (i.e. values=df$col) are not ploted.  </p>
  
  <p>Any assistance or guidance would be greatly appreciated.  Below is my ggplot structure/data:</p>
