Hi,

I’m trying to create a 2 by 10 grid of plots. The [Plots documentation](https://docs.juliaplots.org/latest/layouts/) provides an example for a 2x2 grid:

```julia
plot(rand(10,4), layout=grid(2,2),ticks=nothing)

```

However, extending this to

```julia
plot(rand(10,20),layout=grid(2,10),ticks=nothing)

```

doesn’t seem to work well.  
 ![example](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/julialang/original/3X/3/0/30dfa5efcb15b9e18f46f292e1fb0ed3f0997ca5.png)  
In particular, I’d like to compress the y-axis for each of the plots.

Is there a way to do that?

You could set the size of plot so that the y axis was much smaller than the x axis. E.g. `size = (1000, 100)`.

That works, thanks very much
