Having trouble changing how my heat map looks in ploytly. I’m using R studio. I have tried adding a title, changing the layout and adding a trace. However, the graph in the viewer is not changing. I have tried refreshing the viewer and looking through an external window. I am connected to the internet.

Code:

plotflow = function(varname,ind\_dest, ind\_orig, geo\_dest, geo\_orig, qtr){  
dummy = findit(ind\_dest, ind\_orig, geo\_dest, geo\_orig, qtr)

# Here, I re-factor the variables so that the x and y axes scale correctly

plot\_ly(type=“heatmap”, z=eval(parse(text=paste(“dummy”,"$",varname,sep=""))), x=factor(dummy$industry), y=factor(dummy$industry\_orig),  
colors = “Spectral”)%\>%  
add\_trace()%\>%  
layout(title = “Look at me”)  
return§  
}

Thanks,

Matt
