My question is an extension of this question. Note that I'm using version 2.3.0 which is available on github, not yet on CRAN.
library(ggplot2)
df <- data.frame("Categories" = rep(c("A", "B", "C"), 3),
"values" = c(rep(0.39, 3), rep(0.37, 3), rep(0.24, 3)),
"X" = 1:9)
ggplot(df, aes(x = X, y = values, colour = Categories)) +
geom_line() +
theme(
legend.position = "top",
legend.spacing.x = unit(2, unit = "cm"),
legend.title = element_blank()
)
The code above creates this plot.
I would like to move the legend labels (A, B, C) closer to their corresponding icons, as shown by the red arrows below, which would create more whitespace between the legend categories. How would I do that?
legend.spacing.x
? – Tunglegend.text.align = unit(-1, unit = "cm")
- help page suggest it take a number but doesnt seem to work unless a unit – user2957945
