Since updating to 2.7.0 all plots that use image() (heatmap, etc...) now draw visible boxes around each rectangle in the plot. When there are many rectangles the surrounding color becomes dominant over the rectangle color and the overall
image is borderline useless.


Can you, please, specify exactly which graphics device you are using and possibly a snapshot of the problem? I don't see any additional boxes being drawn on any device.

The only issue I'm aware of are anti-aliasing effects around the edges of adjacent rectangles which don't fall on the pixel boundary (if anti- aliasing device is used). Depending on the subpixel location of the edge, the background color may shine through very slightly. It's not what you describe, but it's closest to what I can imagine you could mean. However, AFAICS this has not been changed recently and is a rendering artifact which is hard to get rid of in the current setup as devices are resolution-independent (the only cure I'm aware of [short of disabling anti-aliasing] is to distort the original plot such that rectangles are aligned with the pixels of the output medium).

Cheers,
Simon
