Function annotate() adds the same label to all panels in a plot with facets. If the intention is to add different annotations to each panel, or annotations to only some panels, a geometry has to be used instead of annotate(). To use a geometry, such as geom_text() we need to assemble a data frame containing the text of the labels in one column and columns for the variables to be mapped to other aesthetics, as well as the variable(s) used for faceting.
Typically you’d do something like this:
ann_text <- data.frame(mpg = 15,wt = 5,lab = "Text",
cyl = factor(8,levels = c("4","6","8")))
p + geom_text(data = ann_text,label = "Text")
It should work without specifying the factor variable completely, but will probably throw some warnings:
