I want to replicate a graph from excel in R. For that I have to create a graph in which all the border region of a graph is colored as shown below:
I tried many ways and also searched alot but it yielded no result.
This is the best I have reached in replicating the graph:
Please help.
Thanks

What do you mean by "border region"? Your question is unclear.

It sounds like you'd like to change the theme of your ggplot. Lots of options under the hood. Here's a basic example to do what you're describing:
set.seed(42)
example <- data.frame(x = 1:100, value = rnorm(100))
library(ggplot2)
ggplot(example, aes(x, value)) +
geom_line() +
# here's where we set the appearance of the theme
# For more: https://ggplot2.tidyverse.org/reference/theme.html
theme(plot.background = element_rect(fill = "gray75"), # region outside plot
panel.background = element_rect(fill = "white"), # region inside plot
panel.grid = element_line(color = "gray90")) # bring back gridlines
It works great.Thanks a lot Jon.
