Hi, I have a makie recipe that essentially makes a stacked line graph using the band function. A very simplified example of what this looks like is this: function Makie.plot!(myplot::MyPlot) band!(myplot,myplot.x,0,myplot.y1,color=:red, label = "y1") band!(myplot,myplot.x,myplot.y1,myplot.y…

I don’t think it was intended as public API, given that the name is not very descriptive, but there’s this internal function that for example series overloads to return its child plots for the legend gathering: function Makie.get_plots(plot::Series) return plot.plots end
