facet_grid rows~cols reversed and facet_wrap nrow issue

[Allan]

Dear all,
It looks to me that the rows and columns boxes are reversed in
facet_grid compared with the call that I expected of facets = rowvar ~
colvar.

In addition, when using facet_wrap - Wrap options, it appears as
though # of rows is currently only added to the call or updated when
changed if ncol is specified although you can specify or update ncol
without specifying nrow.

Thanks, Deducer is a great tool!

I just came across the row vs. column reversal. When I was trying to reproduce Fig. 3.6 in Hadley's ggplot2 book, I filled in year as the column variable and the plot appeared with year in the rows instead. This was the code Plot Builder wrote:

ggplot() +
    geom_point(aes(x = displ,y = hwy),data=mpg,alpha = 0.5952) +
    geom_smooth(aes(x = displ,y = hwy),data=mpg,method = 'loess',formula = 'y ~ x') +
    facet_grid(facets = year ~ .)

Flipping year into the column position worked fine:

ggplot() +
    geom_point(aes(x = displ,y = hwy),data=mpg,alpha = 0.5952) +
    geom_smooth(aes(x = displ,y = hwy),data=mpg,method = 'loess',formula = 'y ~ x') +
    facet_grid(facets = . ~ year)

I thought I had fixed this some time ago, but I guess not. Fixed in
dev now. Will be in next version of deducer.
