  ...,
  labels = "",
  type = "symbols",
  title = "",

  group.control = "check",
  resize.as.group = FALSE,

Arguments

...	visual variables and arguments passed on to tm_legend(). By default, the argument type is set to "symbols", which means that the supported visual variables are: "fill", "col", "shape", "size", "fill_alpha", "col_alpha", "lty", "lwd", "linejoin", and "lineend". The number of legend items will be equal to the maximum number of specific values (and specified labels.)
labels	labels by default "" (so omitted)
type	the layer type from which the visual variables (see ...) are taken. Options: "symbols" (default), "lines", "polygons", and "text".
title	The title of the legend.
design	The design of the legend.
orientation	The orientation of the legend.
position	The position of the legend. A tm_pos object, or a shortcut of two values: horizontal (left, center, right) and vertical (top, center, bottom). See tm_pos for details
group	Name of the group to which this layer belongs. This is only relevant in view mode, where layer groups can be switched (see group.control)
group.control	In view mode, the group control determines how layer groups can be switched on and off. Options: "radio" for radio buttons (meaning only one group can be shown), "check" for check boxes (so multiple groups can be shown), and "none" for no control (the group cannot be (de)selected).
resize.as.group	resize.as.group
z	z
