Hi,
I have a problem with Plot recipe in Plots.jl. I have a plot for an abstracttype that I want to use for a concrete type. How can I do this?
```julia
RecipesBase.@recipe function Plots(contres::AbstractBranchResult)
# do the plot of contres
end
# specialiation
RecipesBase.@recipe function Plots(contres::T) where {T :< AbstractBranchResult}
# change some options and send it to the previous plot recipe
contres
end
```
However, this is an infinite loop. I tried putting keywords arg to differentiate them but they get absorbed in the plot recipe (ie sent to plot, scatter…). If you have an idea, I am interested! (
Thank you for your help
