ggguides 1.1.9

Bug Fixes

• legend_style(by = <aes>, justification = ...) had no visible effect. The update attached the justification to the guide's embedded theme via guide_legend(theme = theme(legend.justification.<side> = ...)), but ggplot2 >= 3.5 does not consult the side-specific justification elements inside a guide's embedded theme — only the whole-plot theme is read. Legends stayed centered along their rail regardless of the justification value. 1.1.9 routes per-guide justification to a whole-plot theme element keyed on the guide's resolved side, so legend_top(by = \"colour\") + legend_style(by = \"colour\", justification = \"left\") now slides the colour legend to the left end of the top rail. If you had a theme(legend.justification.<side> = ...) workaround in your code, you can remove it. (reported by Youtao)

• legend_style(justification = ...) without by was writing to the generic legend.justification, which ggplot2 coerces per axis and mis-maps mixed-axis scalars (e.g., \"left\" on a vertical rail becomes 0 — bottom). It now writes to the side-specific theme elements.
