Hi all,

I’m having some problems getting interactive plots (simple tooltip) to show up inline in a notebook. The docs say that Jupyter lab should already have the capability, but I can only get it to work if I save the specs to a separate file then open that file in Jupyter lab (not in a notebook). Does anyone else have this problem?

This should work, so something is wrong. What versions of everything are you using? If you can share a simple notebook with the problem it would also help.

Not sure how it got fixed, but it works now after I ran `] instantiate` to regenerate `Manifest.toml` to upload as part of the example. Thanks anyways!
