I would like to see [00:00:00, 02:00:00, 04:00:00, 06:00:00]
or similar as the xtick labels. The pyplot and GR backends gave similar results. I am fine using any backend that supports both a left and right yaxis.
using DataFrames, Dates, Plots
gr(linewidth=3, markersize=4, titlefont=18, legendfont=12, guidefont=18, tickfont=14, legend=:outertopright)
df = DataFrame()
df.Time = ["0:05:02", "1:05:23", "2:05:34", "4:05:42", "5:36:01"]
df.Data = [0.0, 1.0, 0.5, 0.4, 0.1]
df.Time = Time.(df.Time, DateFormat("H:M:S"))
plot(df.Time, df.Data)
julia> plot(df.Time, df.Data, lims = :round)
julia> plot(df.Time, df.Data, ticks = 4)
julia> plot(df.Time, df.Data, lims = :round, ticks = 4)
julia> plot(df.Time, df.Data, xlims = (Time(0), Time(6)))

julia> plot(df.Time, df.Data, xticks = Time(0):Hour(2):Time(6))
The last attempt setting xticks
is close, but I still can't get the last tick to appear. Interestingly, it doesn't matter what I set the last value of the range to be. xticks = Time(0):Hour(2):Time(10)
produces the same image.
This will work :
plot(df.Time, df.Data,
xlims = (Dates.value(Time(0)), Dates.value(Time(6))),
xticks = Time(0):Hour(2):Time(6)
)
I feel this should be possible without Dates.value
.
Very recently, support was added for Date
and DateTime
(https://github.com/JuliaPlots/Plots.jl/pull/3180), but not Time
or TimePeriod
