No. The placement controls such as x, y, and corner are not handled by
draw.key itself, but rather by the high-level plotting function. Used
directly, draw.key() basically gives you a low-level grid "grob", and
you need to use grid tools to do anything with them ('draw=TRUE'
simply calls grid.draw() on the grob before returning it). The
simplest way to change position is to supply a simple 'vp' argument.
xyplot(1~1,
panel = function(...) {
require(grid)
panel.xyplot(...)
draw.key(list(text=list(lab='catch'),
lines=list(lwd=c(2)),
text=list(lab='landings'),
rectangles=list(col=rgb(0.1, 0.1, 0, 0.1))),
draw = TRUE,
vp = viewport(x = unit(0.75, "npc"), y = unit(0.9, "npc")))
})
More complex positioning (perhaps depending on the size of the
legend) will need more work.
