Colorbar LaTeX title renders improperly

I have posted this issue on plotly.py (here) however, someone on the plotly community forum said I should post it here as well.

I am trying to implement a LaTeX math title for my colorbar and plotly is having some trouble rendering it. I am using Python 2.7, Plotly 4.5.2. My code:

fig = go.Figure()
fig.add_trace(go.Scatter(x=x_data, 
                         y=y_data,
                         mode='markers',text=obj_name,name='',
                         marker=dict(symbol='circle',size=12,line=dict(width=1,color='SlateGray'),
                                     opacity=0.75,color=log_mbh,colorscale='Rainbow',showscale=True,
                                     cmin=6.0,cmax=8.0,
                                     colorbar=dict(title=dict(text=r'$\Large\alpha\beta\gamma\delta$',side='top'),
                                                   thickness=50,tickmode='array',tickvals=[6.0,6.5,7.0,7.5,8.0]), 
                                    ),
                         )
             )
fig.add_trace(go.Scatter(x=np.arange(0,300,10), y=np.arange(0,300,10),
                         line = dict(color='LightSlateGray', width=2, dash='dash')))

fig.update_layout(
    template='plotly_white',
    xaxis = dict(showgrid=False,ticks='inside',zeroline=True,zerolinecolor='black',rangemode='tozero'),
    yaxis = dict(showgrid=False,ticks='inside',zeroline=True,zerolinecolor='black',rangemode='tozero'),
    xaxis_title=dict(text=r'$x$'),
    yaxis_title=dict(text=r'$y$'),
    font=dict(size=16),
    showlegend = False,
    autosize   = False,
    width      = 750,
    height     = 750,
    margin     = dict(l=50,r=50,b=50,t=50,pad=10),
)

fig.show()

Which produces the output:

As you can see, the LaTeX title seems to be rotated 90 deg, and ignoring side='top'. I have tried to increase the width of the colorbar and increase the plot's margins to no avail. Is there a workaround or solution for this problem?

Update: I have found a workaround but not a solution. This is definitely a bug as far as I cant tell.

One option, if you do not require Greek alphabet, is to simply use HTML code, simply using italics, superscripts or subscripts.

If one wants to use Greek letters, HTML entities don't work, but a few decimal and hexadecimal codes do work.

This issue should be addressed, especially if Plotly is to be used for publishing purposes. Otherwise, Matplotlib is the alternative that does work.

Bắt đầu bằng cách tái hiện trường hợp tiêu đề colorbar từ ví dụ Python được cung cấp, tập trung vào việc kết xuất tiêu đề colorbar trong plotly.js. Xác minh cách văn bản LaTeX xử lý title side='top' và phép xoay; hoàn tất khi tiêu đề được kết xuất với hướng và vị trí được yêu cầu mà không cần workaround đã nêu.
