Description

While this bug is "small", it is effecting heatmaply behavior so a fix would be very helpful.

Following is a reproducible example with the plots of ggplot2 and plotly:


df <- data.frame(
  x = rep(c(2, 5, 7, 9, 12), 2),
  y = rep(c(1, 2), each = 5),
  w = rep(diff(c(0, 4, 6, 8, 10, 14)), 2)
)
p <- ggplot(df, aes(x, y)) +
  geom_tile(aes(fill = w), colour = "grey50", size = 2) +
  theme_bw()
p


ggplotly(p)

Research direction

Start with the reproducible R example in the issue and compare the ggplot2 and plotly outputs, focusing on geom_tile's colour and size settings. Trace the ggplotly conversion entry point for geom_tile; done means the grey tile borders appear in the plotly output as they do in ggplot2.
