Dear all,
Manipulate[Plot[Sin[1/k x], {x, -k \[Pi], k \[Pi]}], {k, 1, 10}]
I want to scale my x-axis simultaneously with my function (no I dont
want to zoom the function)
What happens is a small jitter of the plot size.
This jitter exactly happens when the most left (most right) tick mark
value coincidences with the plot border.
I tried to remove the first and last tick of the final plot to avoid
the problem.
I was able to extract the ticks and remove the very first and last
ones of the plot like this:
With[{k=3},
(Plot[Sin[1/k], {x, - k \[Pi], k \[Pi]}] // First@AbsoluteOptions[#,
Ticks] &) /.
 (Ticks -> {x_, y_}) :> (Ticks -> {Rest@Most[x], Rest@Most@y})
]
but I failed by automaticaly (not by hand) replacing the original
ticks with with the modifyed ticks in the plot.
Any suggestion ?
btw constraining the PlotSize and similar dose not help.
Cheers Robert
