Description

When I invoke fig2plotly on a boxplot as in:

boxplot(SQ_reads_mean,'Jitter',0.15);
fig2plotly(gcf, 'offline', true, 'open', false, 'filename', 'Control_AAGC_63bp_raw_reads_quality');

the system(Matlab running on a Code Ocean compute capsule) reports the following error:

{Index exceeds matrix dimensions.

Error in updateData (line 100)
~strcmp(obj.data{dataIndex}.type,'box')

Error in plotlyfig/update (line 582)
updateData(obj,n);

Error in plotlyfig (line 208)
obj.update;

Error in fig2plotly (line 44)
p = plotlyfig(varargin{:});

Error in SSR_Control_Account_for_PB_Artifact_Bbedit (line 68)
fig2plotly(gcf, 'offline', true, 'open', false, 'filename',
'Control_AAGC_63bp_raw_reads_quality');
}

Research direction

Reproduce the failure with the provided MATLAB boxplot and fig2plotly calls. Start in updateData at line 100, then follow the call from plotlyfig/update and fig2plotly; determine why the boxplot data index exceeds the available data. Done means the same boxplot converts without the reported matrix-dimensions error.
