Excellent. Thanks for the quick response.
The "cutting-edge" version seemed to fix the problem.
Two small(ish) problems with the ways the legend is now constructed with guides():
It seems that the legend labels are now centered rather than left-justified as they were before. I wonder if there is a parameter to put the labels back to left justification.
Also, when I set the legend.position to "bottom", the legend ends up in the bottom right hand corner of the plot window, rather than at the bottom and centered as it is in the official version.
My code is as follows:
ggplot(Dataset) +
my.theme(base_size = textsize) +
stat_density(aes(x = theAnswer, colour = theGroup, order = as.factor(theGroup)), size = 1, adjust = smooth, geom = "path", position = "identity") +
#facet_wrap(~question) +
coord_cartesian(xlim = c(0.5,5.5)) +
scale_x_continuous(breaks = c(1,2,3,4,5),
labels = answerLabels[(answer_5-4):(answer_5)]) +
scale_y_continuous(breaks = NA) +
labs(x = NULL, y = NULL, colour = "") +
opts(legend.position = "bottom",
legend.direction = "horizontal",
legend.key.size = unit((textsize/13), "lines"),
panel.background = theme_rect(fill = "grey14", colour = "grey14"),
plot.background = theme_rect(colour = "grey14"),
panel.border = theme_rect(fill = NA, colour = "grey90", size = 1.25),
plot.margin = unit(c(0, 7, 0, 5.5), "lines")) +
scale_colour_manual(breaks = legendOrder, values = color) +
guides(col=guide_legend(ncol=3))
Thanks again!
could you please provide a reproducible example?
?guide_legend will show you help page.
how can i set the legend row into one?
Hi,
Thanks for reporting the bug.
As for the bug, it has been fixed, but not yet merged into the "develop" branch.
Could you please try the "cutting-edge" branch?
This branch includes some bug fixes.
But please note that this is unofficial version, and hence I strongly recommend to use the official version on CRAN after it will be released.
