Hi,

I am trying to do a bar plot, with no gap between them, but I don’t know how to remove the black stroke lines around each bar.

Anyone knows how to achieve this in Plots?  
Thanks

You can set `linecolor` the same as `color`

```julia
bar([1,2,3], bar_width=1, c=1, lc=1)

```

Or `linewidth = 0` or `linecolor = :transparent`. The ideomatic way to have it match the bar color is `linecolor = :match`.
