Description

Hi,
I tried to make a plot with a zoom and with dynamic ticks. But after the rendering there is no zoom.

library(plotly)
df = data.frame(x=rnorm(100), y=rnorm(100))
g <- ggplot(df, aes(x=x, y=y)) + geom_point()
ggplotly(g, dynamicTicks = TRUE) %>% layout(xaxis = list(range = c(-0.5,0.5)))

Maybe this is incompatible or there is an other way to do it?
Thanks

Research direction

Reproduce the supplied R example using ggplotly(g, dynamicTicks = TRUE) followed by layout(xaxis = list(range = c(-0.5, 0.5))). Start by tracing the interaction between dynamicTicks and the xaxis range. Done means the requested zoom is preserved with dynamic ticks, or the incompatibility and supported alternative are documented.
