Standalone window from Plots.jl or GLMakie in jupyter lab?

General Usage
1

I’m using jupyter lab and have trouble to get a standalone window (not inline) from Plots.jl and GLMakie. I tried

using Plots
scatter(rand(5), rand(5), legend=false)
gui()

and also

plt = plot()
scatter!(plt, rand(5), rand(5), legend=false)
gui(plt)

both of which do nothing when executed in a jupyter lab cell. Is this expected behaviour? The documentation for me suggests it should work?
This is in julia 1.11 with an environment where I only installed Plots.jl. It works fine in repl. I also played around with GLMakie, but I cannot get a standalone window there either…

For GLMakie its:

GLMakie.activate!(inline=false)
display(figure)

Perfect, the following works, thank you!

using GLMakie
GLMakie.activate!(inline=false)
fig = Figure()
ax = Axis(fig[1, 1])
scatter!(ax, rand(4), rand(4))
display(fig)

But where’s the documentation for the inline option? I can’t find any reference to inline in the GLMakie documentation…
