I am trying to understand the behavior of certain keyword arguments in the default GR backend for the Julia Plots package. Here is a screen shot that explains what is going on:
I have looked at the documentation for the Plots.jl package and I can't find the reason behind this behavior. Is this a documented bug?
Next, why does the spacing between the tick labels and the axis itself depend on the grid sizing? Here is another image:
As you can see, the default spacing between the y-axis and the tick labels has magically gained a minimum setting/default. One can verify that that this minimum gap actually increases with grid size, in other words the minimum spacing increases with N for grid sizes N x N. I have been unable to get rid of this gap (tried the *align, *fontsize, *_margin, size and dpi keywords).
Can anyone let me know how to get around this?
