Seurat Violin Plot shows counts LESS than 0?

Hi guys,

When exploring certain genes on Single Cell RNAseq datasets, I've noticed that Seurat violin plots often show gene expression BELOW zero. Is this just a jitter effect? Because I've also noticed that in some cases the cells stack near the zero line too (which would be unexpected of jitter). I uploaded an example here:

Thanks in advance.

What is the command line used to plot this violin plot ?
