key error in jupyter notebook using brainrender

Nobody has claimed this yet.

Hello,

I am very new to these things thus sorry if I am not giving you enough informations about the issue !

to resume

I am trying to plot the coordinate of a group of cells in a 3D brain by using brainrender with jupyter notebook

I am using an anaconda environnement with the version 3.7.0 of python and the version of my anaconda navigator is 1.9.6.

my scirpt is working until this entry :

```
#Get a numpy array coordinates of some labelled cells
scene = Scene(title='area_cell')
MOx = scene.add_brain_region("MO", alpha=0.15)
SSx = scene.add_brain_region("SS", alpha=0.15)
VISx = scene.add_brain_region("VIS", alpha=0.15)
#STRx = scene.add_brain_region("STR", alpha=0.15)

```

```

KeyError: 'notebookBackend'
```

I tried unsuccessfully to understand what was going wrong and to find someonne with the same issue, thus if you have idea it would be great !

also let me know if you need more informations,

Thanks !

Reproduce the traceback in the reported Anaconda/Jupyter setup, then inspect brainrender/scene.py and brainrender/_jupyter.py where vedo.settings.notebookBackend is accessed. Done means Scene(...) initializes without the reported KeyError in the notebook path, with a regression check for this setup.
