Guidebox as a column

Description

Takes a plot or legend and returns a single guide-box in a single column, for embedding in e.g. tables.

Usage

guidebox_as_column(legend, which.legend = 1, add.title = FALSE)

Arguments

legend	A ggplot2 plot or the legend extracted with g_legend. Do not provide a ggplotGrob as it is indistinguisble from a legend.
which.legend	Integer, a legend can contain multiple guide-boxes (or vice versa?). Use this argument to select which to use.
add.title	Does nothing yet.

Value

A gtable with keys and labels reordered into a single column and each pair of keys and labels in the same cell.
