Description
Version: plotly-1.58.4.js
CodePen: https://codepen.io/tysonliddell/pen/qBRGVzV
When calling Plotly.react to resize a pie chart, the leader lines are left on the graph leaving a mess like the following:
If I change datarevision in the layout when calling Plotly.react, the lines are then redrawn properly. Shouldn't the leader lines lines redraw if the layout changes, but the data remains constant though?
