tickMinStep ignored for small domain values #9034

It looks to me, as of Vega-Lite 5.14.1, that Here's an example of a histogram with an attempt to limit x-tick spacing to be no smaller than 2 domain units. But the result still includes tick spacing of 1 unit. {
"$schema": "https://vega.github.io/schema/vega-lite/v5.json",
"data": {"url": "data/movies.json"},
"mark": "bar",
"encoding": {
"x": {
"bin": true,
"field": "IMDB Rating",
"axis": {
"grid": true,
"tickMinStep": 2
}
},
"y": {"aggregate": "count"}
}
}
Open the Chart in the Vega Editor When changing the value of ping @kanitw as it looks like you did some work with tickMinStep earlier this year in #8872. |

Friendly ping @kanitw. Not certain this was related to your changes, but wondering if you could take a quick look |

Are there any workarounds for getting |

FWIW, in my case, dropping |
Please:
tickMinStep=1seems to be ignored in v5.8.0 of vega-lite when for domain values less than 5. Ticks appear with floating point values instead of integers only (e.g., as they were in this prior issue example: #7034)I could not find an open bug searching for
tickMinStepin the GitHub issues for this repository.I tested using vega-lite 5.8.0.
