Description
With version 4.10.0, there appears to be a bug that causes hover text to display in the output figure for bar plots. It seems that this is somehow related to the size of the bars and the window in which the figure is displayed. Adding textposition = "none" to the plot_ly() call seems to resolve this issue, however this was not required with the previous version (4.9.1).
Reproducible example using code from Text Mining with R:
library(tidyverse)
library(plotly)
library(tidytext)
library(janeaustenr)
austen_bigrams <- austen_books() %>%
unnest_tokens(bigram, text, token = "ngrams", n = 2)
bigrams_separated <- austen_bigrams %>%
separate(bigram, c("word1", "word2"), sep = " ")
bigrams_filtered <- bigrams_separated %>%
filter(!word1 %in% stop_words$word) %>%
filter(!word2 %in% stop_words$word)
# new bigram counts:
bigram_counts <- bigrams_filtered %>%
count(word1, word2, sort = TRUE)
bigrams_united <- bigrams_filtered %>%
unite(bigram, word1, word2, sep = " ")
bigram_tf_idf <- bigrams_united %>%
count(book, bigram) %>%
bind_tf_idf(bigram, book, n) %>%
arrange(desc(tf_idf)) %>%
group_by(book) %>%
slice_max(tf_idf, n = 10) %>%
mutate(bigram = fct_reorder(bigram, tf_idf))
bigram_tf_idf %>%
do(p = plot_ly(., x = ~tf_idf, y = ~bigram, color = ~book, type = "bar", hoverinfo = "text", text = ~paste(bigram, "<br> tf-idf: ", tf_idf))) %>%
subplot(nrows = 3, shareX = FALSE, shareY = FALSE)

Research direction
Run the reproducible R example using plot_ly() and subplot() and compare the bar-plot output in versions 4.10.0 and 4.9.1. Investigate why hover text appears in the figure despite hoverinfo = "text"; the issue is done when the expected hover behavior works without adding textposition = "none".
