v0.7.2: CRAN bugfix release

This version fixes a number of bugs and some regressions introduced in v0.7.1. It is available on CRAN.
As always, a huge thanks to everybody who took the time to file these issues.

What's New

• In position_quasirandom, a new orientation argument allows you to manually specify which axis is the 'grouped' or categorical axis. Passing orientation="x" is equivalent to the now-superseded argument groupOnX=TRUE . The parameter also accepts a value of "y" or NULL; the latter causes position_quasirandom to guess which axis is grouped (see below). This addition brings back the ability to change the orientation of the swarms without having to use coord_flip() (#82).
• position_quasirandom more intelligently guesses which axis is the grouped axis by default, and outputs a message to the user when the guess results in the axes being 'flipped', in case the guess is incorrect.
• position_beeswarm now warns the user once per session when using methods that discretize the data axis, and thus may shift the points unexpectedly (specifically, methods center, hex and square) (#77).

Bugfixes

• Fixed an issue in position_quasirandom where the user needed to specify e.g. aes(group = 1) or dodge.width=NULL (#83, #80)
• Fixed an issue in position_quasirandom where NAs in non-data axis aesthetics (e.g., shape) made the points disappear (#84)
• Fixed an issue in position_beeswarm where an error would occur if all the values of y were the same (#85)
• Fixed an issue in position_quasirandom where certain aesthetics would result in one group per observation (e.g., using aes(text=...) for ggplotly) and thus prevent any position adjustment (#78)

v0.7.1: CRAN release

This release incorporates all the incredible work done by @csdaw to refactor the
various geom and position functions, fix outstanding issues, and remove
dependencies on deprecated ggplot2 functions like qplot.

It is also available on CRAN: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/ggbeeswarm/index.html

New features:

• Can now use new features from the beeswarm package, including compact
  swarms and 'corralling' points in overlapping groups.
• Updated examples and documentation.

Changes:

• The groupOnX argument is deprecated. ggplot2 now has logic to determine
  when a plot is 'flipped' automatically so this argument is no longer
  necessary.
• The beeswarmArgs argument is deprecated as its arguments are now called in
  geom_beeswarm directly.
• position_beeswarm is once again an exported function.
• Examples and documentation no longer use ggplot2::qplot as it has been
  hard-deprecated in ggplot2
• The license has been clarified to be GPL-3, not GPL >= 2.
• Minimum R and ggplot2 versions have changed to 3.5.0 and 3.3.0,
  respectively.

Bugfixes:

Too many to summarize here.

A huge thank you to @csdaw, @sherrillmix, and everybody who reported and replied to issues and submitted pull requests in the last few years!

Bugfixes

Fixes typos and an error setting limits.

Thanks to @smsaladi and @idemockle for their contributions.

CRAN release

This fixes a few bugs, namely #31 and #30, and is on CRAN.

Bugfix #31: The default behavior of geom_beeswarm has changed. Before, if the x and y variables have the same number of points, the y-axis was dodged by default. The option to override this (groupOnX=) was lost in the method chain. Now, the option is restored and the default is instead to group on the x-axis. Also now if groupOnX is not specified, and this condition was triggered, a warning regarding the changed behavior is thrown.

Bugfix update

Bugfixes and binary compatibility with latest ggplot2 version. This version is on CRAN as of 2016-12-01.

Now on CRAN

The first version of ggbeeswarm on CRAN.

• Automatic dodging (thanks @josesho) if the parameter dodge.width is not NULL
• Updated documentation and bug fixes.

ggplot2 2.0.0 compatibility

In this release:

• ggplot2 2.0.0 compatibility (thanks @sherrillmix)
• support for coord_flip in ggplot2 (thanks @smsaladi)
• updated dependencies
• bugfixes

Version 0.3.0

This delegates the logic of point spacing to two other packages and focuses on just providing the position objects to ggplot2.
