data = dict(time=['Lunch', 'Lunch', 'Dinner', 'Dinner', 'Dinner'])
p = ggplot(data) + geom_bar(aes(x='time', fill='..count..')) + scale_fill_grey() + theme_void() + ggsize(400, 200)

long_ticks = theme(legend_ticks_length=10) + ggtitle("Long Ticks")

thick_red_ticks = theme(legend_ticks=element_line(size=4, color='red')) + ggtitle("Thick Red Ticks")
hidden_ticks = theme(legend_ticks='blank') + ggtitle("Hidden Ticks")

gggrid([
    p + long_ticks,
    p + thick_ticks,
    p + thick_red_ticks,
    p + hidden_ticks,
]) + ggsize(800, 200)
