Resizing plots in the Julia kernel for Jupyter notebooks

Question

I want to know if there is any way that I can specify the size of the inline-plots in Jupyter. At the moment, I use Vega library and width and height don't work. There is any workaround.

Answer 1

I don't know about Vega, though I think there is an environmental variable for ijulia. Using Plots, you can just default(size = (1000, 300)).

Answer 2

To change the plot size using Vega.jl within Jupyter Notebook, you modify the width and height properties:

using Vega

#defaults are width = 450 and height = 450
b = barplot(x = [1,2,3], y = [1,2,3]) 

#change to whatever values you want
b.width = 200
b.height = 50

#re-render
b

Answer 3

This should work with Plots.jl:

using Plots
plot(1:5, size=(1000,1000))
