You are probably using an out-dated version for Plots.jl and/or GR.jl.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll see if updating those packages will change anything.
To change the default plot size in a Jupyter notebook, when using Plots.jl with the GR backend, I do this:
Plots.gr(format=:png, size=(768,512), legend=false)
before calling Plots.plot() or Plots.heatmap(), etc.
You can set the size to something even larger if you want. I sometimes plot (or heatmap) data from very large arrays. I found that the default format (SVG, I think) resulted in very large notebook files. Setting the format to PNG solved this problem.
Hope that helps you!
Thank you so much for the tip! It worked!! 🙂 The plots appear much better now.
