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)

Commencez par les points d’entrée subplot et plot_ly, puis examinez comment layout dimensions et which_layout déterminent actuellement la taille de la figure assemblée. Déterminez si subplot doit accepter height et width indépendamment de ses panneaux, et définissez le comportement attendu en cas de dimensions de panneaux contradictoires avant de proposer la modification.
