Visualizations do not appear inside my Jupyter Notebook -- without any error messages

[AlexanderKonstantinidis]

When running the tutorial that is provided in the github of the Project, everything goes well otherwise but the visualizations do not actually appear in my Jupyter Notebook. I am not getting any error messages.

The Jupyter Notebook I am referring to can be downloaded here: https://github.com/facebook/Ax/blob/master/tutorials/visualizations.ipynb.

Could you please advise?

Thanks for reporting this @AlexanderKonstantinidis! Could you say in which environment you're running this notebook (desktop OS, Google Colab, JupyterHub, etc.)?

I am using my Notebook (Alienware) which has GPU and runs Windows 10. I am using JupyterLab and Anaconda3. Let me know if you need any more information.

FWIW @chauhang mentioned an issue in other libraries where visualizations would not show when run inside a docker container, this could possibly be related.

@2timesjay , maybe you can grab this one?

This is unfortunately a problem with all JupyterLab plotly plotting.

I was able to resolve it by following https://plotly.com/python/getting-started/#jupyterlab-support-python-35 and installing the jupyter labextension suggested.

Please let us know if this works for you.

Alternately, Jupyter Notebooks should not encounter this problem.

I am encountering the same visualization issue (render yields blank output, no error messages) when attempting to execute https://github.com/facebook/Ax/blob/master/tutorials/tune_cnn.ipynb in Google Colab. Could you kindly advise?

[2timesjay]

@chsher #306 covers colab issues as well. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47230817/plotly-notebook-mode-with-google-colaboratory provides a workaround (use the workaround for version 3, even though we're on version 4.)

Closing and redirecting discussion to #306

i tried using jupyter notebook and still faced the issue. Visualizations are not visible.
I used plotly.express in the notebook

@SauravS009 could you share a full repro on this, including which jupyter notebook version you are on?
