I can’t render plotly versions of maps made using ggplot2 with geom\_sf. Other geoms work fine with plotly in my hands, e.g. bar charts, boxplots, and even geolocated points with custom hover labels. Even the simple example from one of Sievert’s articles does not work:

```auto
library(ggplot2)
library(plotly)
library(sf)
library(albersusa)

us_laea <- usa_sf("laea")
p <- ggplot() + geom_sf(data = us_laea)
ggplotly(p)

```

Any help would be appreciated.

Same problem here. Did you get around it?

Tracebak:  
Error: object of type ‘closure’ is not subsettable  
5. aes2plotly(data, params, “size”)  
4. geom2trace.GeomPath(d, params)  
3. gg2list(p, width = width, height = height, tooltip = tooltip, dynamicTicks = dynamicTicks, layerData = layerData, originalData = originalData, source = source, …)  
2. ggplotly.ggplot§

1. plotly::ggplotly§

Solved it by updating plotly::
