legendry (development version)

legendry 0.3.0

This minor version is a small feature release, introducing several new guides, arguments and changes to keys.

  • New guide guide_legend_manual() for user defined keys (#88)
  • New guide guide_axis_plot() to place side-plots (#43)
  • New guide guide_axis_upset() to place symbols in upset matrices next to axes. Also comes with key_upset() to match (#38).
  • New guide guide_axis_symbols() for a more manual version of placing symbols. Also comes with key_symbols() to match (#38).
  • New guide guide_axis_annotation() to jot down annotations. Includes the helpers annotate_top/right/bottom/left() for convenience (#89).
  • New key key_range_rle() to create a range annotation based on run-length encoding.
  • New arguments guide_axis_base(subtitle) and guide_axis_nested(subtitle) make it easier to title custom axes (#102)
  • New arguments guide_legend_cross(row_title, col_title, subtitle_position) to display subtitles over dimensions (#79).
  • compose_stack(side.titles) also work in non-position guides (#101)
  • Changed the margins and inferred justification of the legendry.axis.subtitle and legendry.legend.subtitle theme elements.
  • Changed ... argument in many key_*() functions to transfer graphical properties like colour or linewidth to guides. Different parts of guides can be targeted by specifying text_colour/line_colour/rect_colour/point_colour.
  • Changed key_group_split() to preserve order of labels better, rather than re-sorting them (#100).
  • Updated title mechanism to comply with ggplot2#6200 (#104)
  • Updated lifecycle of new_compose(), compose_ontop(), compose_stack() from ‘experimental’ to ‘stable’.
  • Fixed a bug where empty titles in legends contributed to spacing. Visual tests depending on legendry may see subtle positioning shifts (#113).
  • Fixed a bug where guide_legend_group() struggled to merge different scales (#112).

legendry 0.2.4

CRAN release: 2025-09-14

This is a patch release fixing a few bugs.

  • Fixed an issue detected by CRAN with regards to undeclared imports from S7 (#97)
  • scale_x/y_dendro() will no longer fail to lookup guide_axis_dendro() when legendry is not on the search path (#94).

legendry 0.2.3

CRAN release: 2025-08-18

This is a patch release fixing a few bugs.

legendry 0.2.2

CRAN release: 2025-05-30

This is a patch release without new features, improvements or bug fixes. The patch aims to make legendry forwards-compatible with a planned ggplot2 release.

legendry 0.2.1

CRAN release: 2025-03-04

This is a patch release with a few bug fixes and a tiny polish.

  • Fixed bug in guide_circles() used for multiple layers (#58)
  • Fixed bug hindering position = "inside" placement (#42)
  • Fixed bug in theme_guide(key.size, key.height, key.width) (#41)
  • Complete guides based on a crux composition now render the legend.background element (#50)
  • A better attempt to honour ggplot2’s mechanism for <AsIs> variables (#45)
  • Better alignment of compose_stack(side.titles) (#48)
  • Fixed aesthetic standardisation in override.aes arguments (#60)
  • Improvements to density and histogram gizmos (#62):
    • The default key now depends on the scale type: continuous scales invoke key_sequence() and binned scales invoke key_bins().
    • When using a binned key in gizmo_histogram(), the default hist(breaks) argument is populated with the key’s breaks.
  • Fix capping issue with non-canonical rescalers in primitive_line() (#67)
