`patchwork` with `geom_label` ::::: Not supported?

[g-pacheco]

Hello all,

This is much more a question than an issue. I have been trying to add geom_label to my patchwork object to no avail. Thus, I have been wondering if this move is even possible at all. If not directly, would it be possible to convert the patchwork object into a ggplot object and then apply the geom_label function to it? I acknowledge the plot_annotation function but I was really hoping I would be able to stick to the geom_label one.

Thanks in advance, George.

Map1 / (Map2 | Map3 | Map4) + plot_layout(widths = c(1)) +
  geom_label(aes(label = "Faroe Islands"), x = .1219, y = .93, size = 7.5, fontface = "bold", fill = "#c6dbef", color = "black") +
  geom_label(aes(label = "British Isles"), x = .3, y = .93, size = 7.5, fontface = "bold", fill = "#c6dbef", color = "black") +
  geom_label(aes(label = "Sri Lanka"), x = .57, y = .93, size = 7.5, fontface = "bold", fill = "#c6dbef", color = "black")

Hi - can you please provide a minimal reproducible example that shows the issue. There is no intended lack of support for geom_label() but I'm also not quite sure what you expect
