ggguides 1.1.6

Bug Fixes

• legend_*(by = <aes>) and legend_style(by = <aes>) now compose correctly when chained for the same aesthetic. Previously, each call built a fresh guide_legend() that replaced the prior one, so legend_top(by = "colour") + legend_style(by = "colour", margin = ...) silently reset the colour legend’s position back to the plot default. The per-aesthetic helpers now return a ggguides update object whose ggplot_add method merges new params into the existing guide. This fixes the “Four Legends, One per Side” vignette example. (reported by Youtao)

API Consistency

• legend_inside(): renamed just argument to justification for consistency with legend_style(justification = ...) and ggplot2’s legend.justification theme element. The old just name still works but emits a deprecation warning.

ggguides 1.1.5

New Features

• legend_style() gains a justification argument. With by = NULL it sets legend.justification globally; with by = "<aes>" it slides a single legend along its side via guide_legend(theme = ...). Useful when four legends sit on four different sides and each needs its own alignment.

Documentation

• multiple-legends vignette: added a “Four Legends, One per Side” section showing per-legend side, justification, and margin adjustments together.

ggguides 1.1.4

Documentation

• Replaced \donttest{} with if(requireNamespace()) conditionals for examples using suggested packages

Testing

• Increased test coverage to 95%+
• Added CI workflows and Codecov integration

ggguides 1.1.3

Maintenance

• Removed dev files from repository (CLAUDE.md, FEATURES.md, ROADMAP.md, build_site.R)

ggguides 1.1.2

Bug Fixes

• Fixed get_legend() returning empty grob with ggplot2 3.5.0+ (guide-box naming changed to position-specific names like “guide-box-right”)

ggguides 1.1.1

Documentation

• Added missing example images to README for Multiple Legends and cowplot/Grid sections

ggguides 1.1.0

CRAN Submission

• Added @return documentation to all S3 methods (ggplot_add, print, plot, and ggplotGrob methods)
• Changed \dontrun{} to \donttest{} in examples that require suggested packages

Documentation

• legend_keys(): Added detailed documentation explaining how to use filled shapes (21-25) with different outline/fill color combinations. Clarified that “colored fill with black outline” requires mapping both color and fill aesthetics in the original plot (#1).

• Added new example showing correct usage for colored fills with black outlines.
