No, it is not impossible to generate a legend in lets-plot-kotlin
. In fact, lets-plot-kotlin
supports generating legends for various aesthetics such as color, fill, size, shape, linetype, and alpha.
For example, to create a scatter plot with color scaled by a factor variable "Species" and a legend, you can write the following code:
import letsplot.*
import kotlin.random.Random
fun main() {
// generate some random data
val n = 100
val species = List(n) { "Species${Random.nextInt(1, 4)}" }
val x = List(n) { Random.nextDouble() }
val y = List(n) { Random.nextDouble() }
val data = mapOf("Species" to species, "x" to x, "y" to y)
// plot the data with a legend
val p = letsPlot(data) { x = "x"; y = "y" } +
geomPoint(aes(color = "Species")) +
scaleColorDiscrete() +
labs(title = "Scatter plot with legend", x = "x", y = "y", color = "Species")
p.show()
}
This will produce a scatter plot with a color legend titled "Species". You can customize the appearance of the legend by modifying the scaleColorDiscrete
function arguments. For example, you can change the title of the legend or the position of the legend using the name
and guide
parameters, respectively.
