[R] colors in facet ggplot and geom_bar

[Jeff Newmiller]

By failing to provide a reproducible example and framing the desired answer as 'any hint' you are effectively limiting yourself to 'any hint' rather than a working example. 

The 'any hint' is that err_type should be a factor with levels in your desired order, and you can then use any of the scale_fill_* functions including scale_colour_manual to specify the colors in the same order as the levels in the factor.
