Define fig size with subplot while height is deprecated in layout

When using height argument in layout, I have a warning telling that this argument is deprecated.
I can use height in plot_ly function directly which is very fine.

However, when using subplot, I did not find a convenient way to specify the total height for the assembled panels. Should subplot accept its own height and width arguments ?

If I understand correctly, subplot uses by default the layout from one of the contained plots. It seems to be the case for width and height but I find it confusing because:

• height is encouraged to be defined outside of the layout function
• it seems counterintuitive that the size of the panels assembly is controled by the size defined in one subpanel

panel1 = plot_ly(x = 1, y = rnorm(100), height = 600, width = 100) %>% 
           add_trace(type = "violin")
panel2 = plot_ly(x = 1, y = rnorm(100), height = 300, width = 300) %>% 
           add_trace(type = "violin")

# Size of individual panels are respected
panel1
panel2

# Total figure size uses size of one subpanel (one can use 'which_layout' to control which)
subplot(panel1, panel2)
subplot(panel2, panel1)

Beginne bei den Einstiegspunkten subplot und plot_ly und prüfe anschließend, wie layout dimensions und which_layout derzeit die Größe der zusammengesetzten Abbildung bestimmen. Kläre, ob subplot height und width unabhängig von seinen Panels akzeptieren sollte, und definiere das erwartete Verhalten bei widersprüchlichen Panel-Dimensionen, bevor du die Änderung vorschlägst.
