Create customizable legend key glyphs

Description

These functions create customizable legend key glyphs, such as filled rectangles or circles.

Usage

rectangle_key_glyph(
  colour = NA,
  fill = fill,
  alpha = alpha,
  size = size,
  linetype = linetype,
  padding = unit(c(0, 0, 0, 0), "pt"),
  color
)

circle_key_glyph(
  colour = NA,
  fill = fill,
  alpha = alpha,
  size = size,
  linetype = linetype,
  padding = unit(c(0, 0, 0, 0), "pt"),
  color
)

Arguments

colour, color	Unquoted name of the aesthetic to use for the outline color, usually colour, color, or fill. Can also be a color constant, e.g. "red".
fill	Unquoted name of the aesthetic to use for the fill color, usually colour, color, or fill. Can also be a color constant, e.g. "red".
alpha	Unquoted name of the aesthetic to use for alpha, usually alpha. Can also be a numerical constant, e.g. 0.5.
size	Unquoted name of the aesthetic to use for the line thickness of the outline, usually size. Can also be a numerical constant, e.g. 0.5.
linetype	Unquoted name of the aesthetic to use for the line type of the outline, usually linetype. Can also be a constant, e.g. 2.
padding	Unit vector with four elements specifying the top, right, bottom, and left padding from the edges of the legend key to the edges of the key glyph.

Examples

library(ggplot2)

set.seed(1233)
df <- data.frame(
  x = sample(letters[1:2], 10, TRUE),
  y = rnorm(10)
)

ggplot(df, aes(x, y, color = x)) +
  geom_boxplot(
    key_glyph = rectangle_key_glyph(fill = color, padding = margin(3, 3, 3, 3))
  )

ggplot(df, aes(x, y, color = x)) +
  geom_boxplot(
    key_glyph = circle_key_glyph(
      fill = color,
      color = "black", linetype = 3, size = 0.3,
      padding = margin(2, 2, 2, 2)
    )
  )
