Description

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

df_txt <- data.frame(x=1, y=1, label="No tooltip here, please", frame = 1:2)
df_pts <- data.frame(x=rep(c(1, 1), each=2), y=c(.9, .95, .8, .85),
                     tooltip=paste("obs_num: ", 1:2, "tooltip exclusively for points with different dim"),
                     frame = rep(1:2, each=2))

## static plot, no frames
g <- ggplot() +
  geom_text(aes(x,y, label=label), df_txt) +
  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)
#> Warning: Ignoring unknown aesthetics: frame
#> Warning: Ignoring unknown aesthetics: frame
plotly::ggplotly(g_anim2)
