Description

Since version 0.14, it has been possible to set figure options in Quarto such as fig-width and fig-height. However, this only appears to work when set in the global YAML. Changing them in individual cells has no effect. Is there a way around this, or will this feature be made available?

Research direction

Reproduce the behavior in a Quarto document using plotnine, comparing global YAML figure options with options set in individual cells. Trace how plotnine output is rendered in Quarto and identify where cell-level figure dimensions are lost. Done means fig-width and fig-height work consistently at cell scope, with coverage for the reported case.
