Problems to change colors in vistime

Question

I recently did the update for the vistime package but since, I cannot change the colors anymore. If I run this code:

pres <- data.frame(Position = rep(c("President", "Vice"), each = 3),
               Name = c("Washington", rep(c("Adams", "Jefferson"), 2), "Burr"),
               start = c("1789-03-29", "1797-02-03", "1801-02-03"),
               end = c("1797-02-03", "1801-02-03", "1809-02-03"),
               color = c('#cbb69d', '#603913', '#c69c6e'),
               fontcolor = c("black", "white", "black"))

vistime::vistime(pres, events="Position", groups="Name", title="Presidents of the USA")

I have like the "default" colors (6 colors in total instead of the 3 mentioned in the code) that appear on the timeline.

Does somebody else have the same problem?

Considering the upvotes this question is getting I am guessing you are not the only one with this problem. I would suggest raising and issue on GitHub here https://github.com/shosaco/vistime/issues — Chabo, Mar 08 '19 at 21:51

I am the maintainer of the package vistime. Unfortunately, this was a bug in the 0.8.0 version and was fixed in 0.8.1. Consider upgrading - version 1.0.0 will be out very soon!
