I have developed a visual using ggplot2 and plotly. It works like a charm on desktop ...
But when I upload the report the tooltips are reverted back to default settings
This is the code I am using
p = ggplotly(g) # some plotly re-design hoverconfig<-list( bgcolor= "#333333", bordercolor="#333333", font = list( color="#c1c1c1" ) ) p <- layout(p,hoverlabel=hoverconfig) # save HTML with predefined name internalSaveWidget(p, 'out.html')
Any ideas on how I can fix this?
In Power BI, the plotly HTML output is not supported fort R Visuals in general.
Plotly can only be used if it produces an IMAGE\PNG for R visuals in PBI. Not HTML.
Regards,
Fine reply from a moderator ... not only did I say it was working but power BI does offer support for it. FYI plotly does not handle the HTML output, htmlwidget does that
Thanks anyway
Hello @pope,
Could you please send details to R-powered visuals support alias? (pbircvsupport@microsoft.com)
There're a few developers who can assist with this issue.
