#' colorplaner: ggplot2 Extension to Visualize Two Variables Per Color
#' Aesthetic through Color Space Projection
#'
#' Add additional dimensionality to visualizations by using the color and/or
#' fill aesthetics to convey the values of two continuous variables each. By
#' projecting variable values onto YUV color space, a scale is created that
#' allows viewers to intuitively determine the values of both variables from the
#' single displayed color. Includes two new scales and a new guide for ggplot2.
#' See \code{\link{scale_color_colorplane}} for usage.
#'
#' @section Warning Message About Ignoring Unknown Aesthetics:
#' Layers now produce a warning message when unrecognized aesthetics are found
#' but have no mechanism for notifying them of aesthetics handled by scales.
#' The warning can be avoided by mapping \code{color2}/\code{fill2} at the plot
#' level (i.e. in the initial \code{ggplot()} statement). If you want to avoid
#' colorplane mapping on all layers, map \code{color}/\code{fill} only on the
#' layers you want, as in the example below.
#'
#' @examples
#' library(ggplot2)
#' ggplot(iris, aes(x = Sepal.Length, y = Sepal.Width,
#'   colour2 = Petal.Width)) +
#'  geom_point(aes(colour = Petal.Length)) +
#'  geom_line(aes(linetype = Species)) +
#'  scale_color_colorplane()
