Output doesn't update

[tbreloff]

I was just testing this out with Plots. It doesn't crash, which is an improvement! However it also doesn't update (which sort of defeats the purpose ;)

Just doing a simple test gave me initial output as expected, but clicking buttons/sliders/etc did not change the output:

using Plots, Interact
@manipulate for i=[5,20]
    plot(rand(10))
end

I made this simple change to https://github.com/JuliaLang/Interact.jl/blob/master/src/IJulia/setup.jl#L95-L97:

const __i = Ref(0)
function IJulia.display_dict(x::Signal)
    __i[] += 1
    @show __i[]
    IJulia.display_dict(value(x))
end

And confirmed that this method doesn't seem to get called after the initial setup.

Any idea what's going on?

Which Plots backend? Tagged versions of Interact, Reactive, Plots or master?

This is working for me with PlotlyJS backend and a couple of different combinations of master/tagged, as in the plot updates fine when you click the buttons.

Interesting. I tried with pyplot and gr. What commits are you on?

Not at comp right now, sorry, but Pyplot needs special treatment to work with interact, see the example notebook 3

gr, pyplot and plotly all work for me with tagged IJulia, Interact, Reactive and Plots.

using Plots, Interact
# gr()
pyplot()
...

You're in IJulia right? Do you have any errors in the js console? In the IJulia backend?

Your Jupyer and ipywidgets versions are good? https://github.com/JuliaLang/Interact.jl#ipywidgets-version.

I did a Pkg.free("Interact") and it's working! Any idea what might have changed since the last tag?

Oh yeah, there was change in IJulia that is required for current Interact master to work. Checking out IJulia master should sort it out. Need to fix up the REQUIRE. Thanks.

Closing this, will leave #125 open instead until a release is tagged because it's a bit clearer and more succinct if others run into the problem.
