Dear folks,

suppose we have two figures `figA` and `figB` which have the same legend. Is it possible to stack them together, e.g.,

```julia
newFig = hstack(figA, figB)

```

and to add only one legend to `newFig` afterwards (in my case centered in the bottom)?

Thank you in advance,  
mike\_k

what’s wrong with adding `Theme(key_position=:none)` to FigA?
