ggplotly() cannot stop geom_text tooltip, geom will not display on all animation frames #2060

Open nspyrison opened 2 years ago

1) Cannot stop geom_text from displaying tooltip. 2) Animations will not display all geoms on all frames (note that data has differing rownumers

## static plot, no frames

  geom_point(aes(x,y, tooltip=tooltip), df_pts)
#> Warning: Ignoring unknown aesthetics: tooltip

plotly::ggplotly(g, tooltip = "tooltip")

## Issue 1) geom_text tooltips are unstopable:
plotly::ggplotly(g, tooltip = NULL)

# plotly::ggplotly(g, tooltip = FALSE)
# plotly::ggplotly(g, tooltip = "foobar")

## animation, aes has frame
g_anim <- ggplot() +
  geom_text(aes(x,y, label=label, frame = frame), df_txt) +
  geom_point(aes(x,y, tooltip=tooltip, frame = frame), df_pts)
#> Warning: Ignoring unknown aesthetics: frame
#> Warning: Ignoring unknown aesthetics: tooltip, frame

## Issue 2) seeing common frame 1 issues, where some geoms display only on frame 1.
# then other apeear semi consistently in other frames. 
plotly::ggplotly(g_anim, tooltip = "tooltip")

## Not a tooltip issue as I was worrying.
g_anim2 <- ggplot() +
  geom_text(aes(x,y, label="existential crisis with points and text", frame = frame), df_txt) +
  geom_point(aes(x,y, frame = frame), df_pts)

Order of geoms effects the issue:

Using ids=id inside of aes() does not help.

## Adding aes(`ids`) doesn't seem to help
