\begin{Description}\relax
Generate default guides (legends, axes, and labels).
\end{Description}
\begin{Usage}
\begin{verbatim}guides_basic(plot, scales=scales_default(plot))\end{verbatim}
\end{Usage}
\begin{Arguments}
\begin{ldescription}
\item[\code{plot}] plot object
\item[\code{scales}] plot scales
\end{ldescription}
\end{Arguments}
\begin{Details}\relax
The default guides built for a plot are:

\item the background colour over the whole plotting area (white)
\item within each a panel a gray background with white gridlines
(see \code{\LinkA{ggplot.options}{ggplot.options}}) to change)
\item vertical and horizontal axes (appearance control by options
to the position scales)
\item facetting labels (see \code{\LinkA{ggplot.options}{ggplot.options}}) to change default
colours etc)

To decouple plot construction from the objects that are placed within it,
each of the grobs produced by this function uses a \code{\LinkA{vpPath}{vpPath}}.
\end{Details}
\begin{Value}
\begin{ldescription}
\item[\code{background list of grobs to appear in background}] 
\item[\code{grid grobs that form background grob}] 
\item[\code{axes\_v vertical axes}] 
\item[\code{axes\_h horizontal axes}] 
\item[\code{labels row and column labels}]
