First time poster here. I hope I am doing it correctly. I have had the following issue for a while now and I really want to understand what is going wrong.
I am trying to plot a dashed line with ggplot.
x = c(1:405)
y = c(rep(0,135),seq(1:135),rep(135,135))
ggplot() + geom_line(aes(x, y),linetype = 2, size=1)
However, the dashed line comes out distorted. The lines are not evenly spaced. This happens both in the plot-window in R, and when I save the plot with ggsave. When I change the size of the plot-window the distortion changes, but it occurs usually around x = 100, 200 and/or 300. It is happening both in R and Rstudio. I am using a Mac have everything updated to the newest versions. When my colleague plots the same line in linux he has no issues.
