Description

This is probably very similar to #1088 but dynamicTicks is not the problem. It's a simple boxplot with scale_y_log10() that shows scaled values instead of actual value. If it's not resolved yet, is it possible to not show boxplot labels at all?

Thanks a lot!

g <- ggplot(iris,aes(x = Species, y = Sepal.Length, fill = Species)) + 
  geom_boxplot(outlier.shape = NA) + 
  scale_y_log10()
