Not yet verified to work but hope so! @Nowosad have you hit this? @e-kotov I'm still finding these issues in downstream repos, latest being the itsleeds/tds repo. This is basic stuff, plot() should work, so hoping this fixes it. Any insights into the v. welcome, wondering if we should also set global .Rprofile for this? |
