Plots.jl: Cannot plot large scale figure with plotlyjs() backend on atom Juno

[haotian127]

Hi,

When I try something like,

using Plots
plotlyjs()
heatmap(rand(10,10))

it works fine and generate the correct figure. But when I increase the scale,

using Plots
plotlyjs()
heatmap(rand(400,400))

it does not output the resulting figure. Any thoughts about what is wrong? Thanks a lot!

I can reproduce, on the newest versions. Very strange though. @pfitzseb did you not change the way Juno handles plotlyjs plots recently?

Turns out there is a limit on the size of data URIs after all. Everything under 2MB (equivalent to heatmap(rand(168,168))) works fine, everything above that doesn't. This is a Juno bug though, so let's close this in favour of https://github.com/JunoLab/Juno.jl/issues/488.
