Plot.ly custom menu loses layout.shapes

Hello,
I’ve made a custom menu for plotly but something strange is happening.
As you will see in the code pen console at the third click the shapes array of the layout object dissapear.

Thanks in advance for your time,
Dani

I solved it adding this code but i dont think if this is the solution:

if (typeof (layout.shapes) == "undefined") {
        layout.shapes = [];
    }

See https://codepen.io/etpinard/pen/eEOpYM?editors=0010

I’m not sure if it shows the desired behavior, but using targeted relayout signatures should help manage how many shapes there are on your graph.
