sliders not showing with ipywidgets 8.0.1

Bug report

Bug summary

After freshly installing using pip install mpl_interactions[jupyter], sliders generated by plot or hyperslice do not appear in the generated figure anymore.

Code for reproduction

conda create -n test python=3.9
conda activate test
pip install mpl_interactions[jupyter]

(installs ipywidgets==8.0.1)

import mpl_interactions.ipyplot as iplt
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

x = np.linspace(0, np.pi, 100)
tau = np.linspace(0.5, 10, 100)

def f1(x, tau, beta):
    return np.sin(x * tau) * x * beta
def f2(x, tau, beta):
    return np.sin(x * beta) * x * tau

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
controls = iplt.plot(x, f1, tau=tau, beta=(1, 10, 100), label="f1")
iplt.plot(x, f2, controls=controls, label="f2")
_ = plt.legend()
plt.show()

Example from the documentation. Sliders are not shown in notebook.

Actual outcome

Expected outcome Sliders should appear above the Figure title. Works with ipywidgets 7.6.3.

Hi @jubrau are you sitll having this issue? I can't replicate this with ipywidgets 8.0.2

I know there were some initial issues with th eipywidgets release, so it's possible that 8.0.2 fixed the issue you were having.

After installing ipywidgets 8.0.2 both in the base conda environment and in the actual environment the bug seems to be gone. Thanks!
