Hey guys,

I’ve been using Plotly now for a while but the Plots always open in the plots pane of Juno.  
From what I’ve read this code should by default open a browser window or am I wrong?

```julia
using Plotly

data = [1,2,3,4]
fig = Plotly.plot(data)
display(fig)
response

```

I tried to follow the instructions here [GitHub - plotly/Plotly.jl: A Julia interface to the plot.ly plotting library and cloud services](https://github.com/plotly/Plotly.jl) but it still opens in the plot pane. Any ideas of what I’m doing wrong?

Best,  
Merit

Settings → Packages → Julia Client → Click on Settings

UI Options → Unset Enable Plot Pane

After this it opens an electron window to display the plot, not the browser.

Thanks for the advice!  
But isn’t there a possibility to plot in the browser window, since python plotly normally opens one when i execute the plot command?
