Give custom name to legend items in ggplotly object

Hi,

I want to make the legend items to be displayed by the choice of inputs and having an "and" between two variables.
I added my sample shiny app, which demonstrates the need for this.
I can change the legend items in ggplot itself. But ggplotly object doesn't reflect this change.

If anybody help me on this, I would be appreciated.

Thank you.
Mustafa

df <- data.frame(gender=rep(c("Male", "Female", "Both gender"), each=12, times=3),

server.R file:

function(input, output,session){

df_interactive <- reactive({

df[age.group %in% input$agegroup &
     gender %in% input$gender] 

})

target_plot <- reactive({
p <- ggplot(df_interactive(), aes(x=date, y=rate, colour = interaction(age.group, gender)))+
geom_line(aes(color=interaction(age.group, gender)), size=0.5)+
labs(y = "", x = "") +
scale_color_manual(values = mycolor12, name = '',
labels = paste(input$agegroup, input$gender, sep=" and "),
guide = guide_legend(
title="",
direction = "vertical",
label.position = "right",
label.hjust = 0.5,
label.vjust = 1
))+
scale_y_continuous(labels = scales::percent) +
scale_x_date(date_breaks = "1 year", date_labels = "%Y")

p <- ggplotly(p) %>% config(displayModeBar = F) %>%
  layout(legend = list(orientation = "v", x = 1, y=0.3, font = list(size = 10, bgcolor = 'rgb(251)')))

})

output$plot_interactive <- renderPlotly({
target_plot()
})
}

Ejecuta la aplicación Shiny de ejemplo desde ui.R, server.R y global.R; después, inspecciona target_plot, donde ggplotly convierte la leyenda de ggplot. Compara las etiquetas solicitadas de scale_color_manual con la salida de la leyenda interactiva; se considera terminado cuando la leyenda de ggplotly muestra las entradas seleccionadas unidas con "and".
