aspect ratio not honored

[wdwatkins]

The asp argument is not being honored in plotting function calls.

set.seed(2576)
X <- runif(33)
Y<-seq(0,2,length.out = 33)
gs <- gsplot() %>% points(X, Y,
                          asp=1,frame.plot=FALSE) %>% axis(side=c(3,4),labels=FALSE) %>% grid()
gs

Produces this:

asp=1 should produce 1:1 axes.

[wdwatkins]

labels seems to be having the same problem.

[jordansread]

@wdwatkins when you make examples, can you make sure they are reproducible for us? I think that just means you need to include X and Y in your code snippet, but that helps us diagnose.

[jordansread]

not sure that labels is broken. You are saying "no labels" on sides 3 and 4, and there aren't labels on those sides.

[jordansread]

try triple ticks w/ r specified:
this

gives you this:

this.variable <- result(data=c(2,3,1),flags='three')

and that way you can use return lines too

[wdwatkins]

Sorry, X and Y are just arbitrary things to plot. I added them.

To be more specific with labels: it works in the axis() call like above, but not when its inside points(), the same way asp doesn't. Same X and Y as above.
gs <- gsplot() %>% points(X, Y, labels=FALSE ) %>% axis(side=c(3,4),labels=FALSE)

I'm trying to suppress initial labels on the main axes, so I can relabel them with an axis() call that places the labels between tick marks for the time/date axis labeling.

[lindsayplatt]

You shouldn't need to suppress them in order to change the labels:

gs <- gsplot() %>% 
    points(1:10,1:10) %>% 
    axis(side=1,at=c(2,4,6,8,10),labels=TRUE)
gs

[wdwatkins]

That also moves the tick marks though. I'm trying to keep the original ticks, and only add labels. To get something like this:

I'm using this method: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7530933/placing-the-x-axis-labels-between-period-ticks. Maybe there's a better option though.

[jordansread]

@wdwatkins do you want:

set.seed(2576)
X <- runif(33)
Y<-seq(0,2,length.out = 33)
gs <- gsplot() %>% points(X, Y, axes=FALSE ) %>% axis(side=c(1:4), labels=FALSE)
gs

That would be my suggestion for what you are doing...unfortunately, that doesn't actually work as expected for me:

This seems like a bug, right @lindsaycarr ?

[lindsayplatt]

Yes, that does seem like a bug. Something with axes=FALSE because this works as expected:

set.seed(2576)
X <- runif(33)
Y<-seq(0,2,length.out = 33)
gs <- gsplot() %>% points(X, Y) %>% axis(side=c(1:4), labels=FALSE)
gs

See #370

[lindsayplatt]

asp still not working. Is this at all related to #366?

[lindsayplatt]

Saving for later because it's complicated (asp tells us to ignore one of the axis' limits) and not useful for repgen. Would be nice to have for ease of meeting SPN compliance.
