(Auto-)Resize plots that start too large

Describe the issue

Plots by default are sometimes too large, and the right side is cut off (e.g. when using the sexy Jupyter Lab side-by-side rendering or just using a small screen. Obviously you then want to resize them. However, since the resize handle is at the bottom right, it is also not visible. So the only current solution is to manually change the figure size in the code and re-run until it is visible. Not an ideal solution; sometimes you may not have direct access to the code creating the figure.

Some possible solutions:

• add a horizontal scrollbar (probably would need to be done on the JupyterLab side)
• introduce an auto-resize feature in the ipympl figure toolbar that will automatically resize the figure to the available width when pressed
• auto resize all newly created figures, maybe activatable by an "%ipympl autoresize" magic method
• make the handle location configurable
• scale the entire figure such that all of it is always visible (probably doesn't work too well with manual resizing), just like for inline plots

The current state is rather frustrating.

Example:

Versions

jupyterlab==3.2.8
jupyterlab-widgets==1.0.2
ipympl==0.8.7
ipywidgets==7.6.5

首先检查 ipympl figure toolbar，以及 JupyterLab 如何并排渲染 figure。比较使过大的 plot 可用的方案，然后定义预期的 resize 行为，并在列出的 JupyterLab、ipywidgets 和 ipympl 版本中验证该行为；issue 未指定任何文件或测试。
