R: Cannot remove x and y-axis gridlines on googleVis LineChart-CodePudding

As the title says it, I'm wondering why I cannot remove gridlines from the chart area on gvisLineChart objects in R. I've had a read through the documentation and tried using the respective commands written there - namely:

options = list( 
             hAxis.gridlines = "{color:'transparent', count:0}",
             vAxis.gridlines = "{color:'transparent', count:0}"
          )

I also tried implementing the suggested solutions in

I want to remove these gridlines, the axis ticks and the bold horizontal line that goes through y=0 to give the plot a very minimalistic look. How can I do this with R, granted that I've exhausted the above mentioned suggestions to no avail? Thanks.

CodePudding user response：

try the following format, to ensure hAxis exists as an object...

hAxis = "{gridlines: {color:'transparent', count:0}}",

EDIT

to remove the lines but keep the labels, remove count: 0
to change the color of the baseline (bold horizontal line going through y = 0),
use option baselineColor

hAxis = "{baselineColor: 'transparent', gridlines: {color:'transparent'}}",
