Good morning! So it is the first time I have seriously played with the Plotly library and would love to use it further in projects. I have been working with Plotly 4.5.6.900 in R 3.3.2 trying to get legends to work together as one. Currently I’m using the following to generate this image. a <- pl…

Here is another way of doing it – https://github.com/ropensci/plotly/blob/28a1215c22438ca9f9aa0de2f5725fab060b6f3b/R/subplots.R#L33-L40

@cdr6934 Any luck? The example works fine when there is no grouping variable in plotly, but with color = ~Family grouped legends are not appropiate. If you managed to make it work, I would be appreciative if you could share your code!

@rubenaf No… Unfortunately I was not been able to get it to work. The solutions provided did not help me figure out the issue. I’ve since rewritten it in Bokeh till I can get it to work with Plotly.

The links provided above illustrate a way to do it. For example: df <- data.frame(x = c("a","b","c"), y = c(2,3,2), y2 = c(4,2,4)) p1 <- plot_ly(df, type = 'bar', x = ~x, y = ~y, color = ~x, legendgroup = ~x) p2 <- plot_ly(df, type = 'bar', x = ~x, y = ~y2, color = ~x, legendgroup = ~x, showlegen…

Hello @cdr6934 I know this is a bit late, but I guess this will also do : a <- plot_ly(data = oneDeal6, type="bar", x = ~ClosedYearQuarter, y = ~Turns, color = ~Family, colors = "GnBu", hoverinfo = 'text', text = ~paste(Family,"\nTurns: ", round(Turns,2)), legendgroup = 'group1', sho…

For me, this (the solution of @ParisaM )is not 100% working. My plot will show a legend that contains only once the variable I stated at color which is Family here (for me it is: color=~location) (and i have 4 locations, so it only shows 4 locations). But selecting a specific trace makes them all di…

Try a grouped legend: https://plot.ly/r/legend/#grouped-legend
