Change size argument in localPlots #59

Closed florianhartig closed 8 years ago

florianhartig commented 8 years ago

in local plots, the size argument is confusing, because it only works for grids and the sqrt result is rounded, in the sense that

size = 10 produces a 3x3 plot

either

i) we switch to a size argument, or ii) we add other than grid geometries so that we get exactly the right size

I would tend towards i), with the slight modification that I wonder if we should move towards circular geometries as well

How do you mean i) switching to a size argument? Should the size determine the edge length of a square? Or in case of a circular geometry the radius? Or the absoulte number of cells in the subplot?
