axis.ticks.x

[baptiste auguie]

Dear all,

I'm trying to get rid off the tick marks of the x axis only. It seems
that the documentation (February 24, 2009) is out-of-date in this
respect (table 8.1 features a axis.ticks.y that does not seem to exist
anymore). Instead, I found a guide_axis() function that could do the
job but it's too low level to be used directly. Any pointers?

p <- qplot(1,1)
p + opts(axis.ticks = theme_blank())

Best regards,

baptiste

where Hadley suggests to set the breaks on the x axis to NA - e.g.

qplot(mpg, wt, data = mtcars) + scale_x_continuous(breaks = NA)
qplot(factor(cyl), wt, data = mtcars) + scale_x_discrete(breaks = NA)
