Ggplotly giving error: unused argument (<environment>)

Plotly R, MATLAB, Julia, Net Plotly R

When I run ggplotly, it gives me the error:

Error in f(..., self = self) : unused argument (<environment>)

Then after I run the code I can’t plot anything in R. I try to rerun and plot the same graph and nothing happens. The system won’t plot until I restart R.

Example code:

library(ggplot2)
library(plotly)

df <- data.frame(
  gp = factor(rep(letters[1:3], each = 10)),
  y = rnorm(30, mean = 5)
)
ds <- plyr::ddply(df, "gp", plyr::summarise, mean = mean(y), sd = sd(y))

gg <- ggplot(df, aes(gp, y)) +
  geom_point() +
  geom_point(data = ds, aes(y = mean), colour = 'red', size = 3)

ggplotly(gg)

Hey @C4ADSdata

This seems to work fine for me with plotly_4.5.6.9000. Try installing the development version devtools::install_github('ropensci/plotly)

I suspected it might be something wrong with my computer or some bug in my Rstudio. It’s a strange issue I couldn’t find anywhere else on the internet. Thank you for running the code for me!
