type_errorbar does not respect order of x-axis labels but type_points does.

EDIT: After lots wondering and head-scratchin, I found the solution after all. I used the argument "xlevels" to specify them specifically. I am not sure why I did not see this before. Sorry for posting this (non) issue. This can be closed now.

Hi, and thank you for this amazing package. I started using tinyplot more frequently recently and came across an unexpected issue (stable CRAN version as well as development version).

I can change the order of axis-labels, or breakpoints in a factor by specifying the order. This works well with plots of type "p" but surprisingly not with with type "errorbar". A reproducible example is below. Is this intended behaviour, and if so - is there a way to specify the order of breaks on the x-axis for errorbar plots?

library(tinyplot)
df <- data.frame(x = c("a", "b", "c"), y = 1:3)

# default order as expected for points and errobar plots
plt(y ~ x, data = df, type = "p")

plt(y ~ x, data = df, type = "errorbar", ymin = y - .2, ymax = y + .2
)


# points plot respects custom order, errobar plot does not
df$x2 <- factor(df$x, levels = c("c", "a", "b"))
plt(y ~ x2, data = df, type = "p")
plt(y ~ x2, data = df, type = "errorbar",  ymin = y - .2, ymax = y + .2)

Thank you very much in advance.

Glad you hit upon the solution. Nothing luck rubber ducking your own problem with a full issue write-up...

BTW, you may be interested in the new x/yord arguments that I shipped in #694. These are sister args to x/ylevels and take convenience keywords and functions (e.g., "rev", "descending", etc.) instead of the literal levels that the latter require.
