Description

This one has a very specific replication path from this pen: https://codepen.io/nicolaskruchten/pen/NWxoWGR?editors=0010

  1. newPlot@0
  2. react@1 (this is the critical step to get the figure into the broken state)
  3. do turntable interaction via drag
  4. click on "zoom" modebar icon: the turntable interaction is undone!

Alternate path:

  1. newPlot@0
  2. react@1 (this is the critical step to get the figure into the broken state)
  3. click on "zoom" modebar icon and zoom a bit via drag
  4. click on "turntable" modebar icon: the zoom interaction is undone!

Research direction

Start with the linked CodePen and reproduce the sequence involving newPlot, react, drag interaction, and switching the zoom and turntable modebar icons. Trace how the 3D camera state changes across those interactions. Done means switching interaction modes no longer undoes the existing turntable or zoom camera state.
