I am curious as to whether there is a way to stack legends horizontally rather than vertically in ggplot2 and ggnewscale:
Example using mtcars dataset:
ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = mpg, y = cyl)) +
geom_point(aes(col = gear)) +
ggnewscale::new_scale_color() +
geom_point(aes(col = carb))
Plot for example
You can individually control legends via guides(...):
library(ggnewscale)
ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = mpg, y = cyl)) +
geom_point(aes(col = gear)) +
ggnewscale::new_scale_color() +
geom_point(aes(col = carb))+
theme(legend.direction = "vertical",
legend.box = "horizontal",
legend.position = "right") +
guides(size=guide_legend(direction='horizontal'))
