It’s possible to pass vectors of colors in element_text() but it’s unsupported so you get warnings. That method doesn’t work for bold/italic/etc instead you have to resort to things pike ggtext::element_markdown() but that gets cumbersome in conjunction with controlling the order of levels. #rstats #ggplot2

The best option I’ve found is to insert the markdown via the labels arg to scale_*_discrete #rstats #ggplot2

@joranelias I, too, default to using scale_fill_manual() and had a maddening time mapping my colors onto factor levels with alluvial diagrams. #rstats
