Figure Widget plot error in Datashader Case Study

Iโ€™ve been developing some plots based on the datashader case study. They are rendering and functioning well but I always get an error the first time the plot is shown. The plot is still rendered and interactive.

I thought it had to do with my implementation but it remains the same when I tried running the example.

f = go.FigureWidget(data=[{'x': x_range, 
                           'y': y_range, 
                           'mode': 'markers',
                           'marker': {'opacity': 0}}], # invisible trace to init axes and to support autoresize
                    layout={'width': plot_width, 'height': plot_height})
f

After I run the previous cell in that example this error is raised:

Inspecting the obj in the traceback indicates that these are the plot options:

My plotly is at version 3.2.1
I donโ€™t know how to check my plotly widget extensions jupyter nbextension list shows I have it enable but doesnโ€™t show the version

Hi @neuronist,

I just tried the example with plotly.py version 3.6.1 and Iโ€™m not seeing an error. Could you try updating? Thanks!

It fixed it. Thanks.
