[Traminer-users] plots with group option vs separate plots

[Pierre Blavier]

Hi everybody,

here is a plot from the TramineR seqiplot command. It gives the first 10
sequences of my dataset, all my sequences are 21 period-long. Does anyone
know how to reduce the length of the x-axis to have a length of the longest
sequence, i.e. 21 periods ? It's probably simple but i could not fix it. I
have the same problems for other plots

Thanks, Best,

Pierre
