Description
R-shiny has an option to specify a function that can be used to set the height of the plot window. I expected something similar to work for py-shiny with @render.plot as below. However, that returns an error (try_render_matplotlib() got multiple values for argument 'height')
Questions: Is there a way to set plot window height and width dynamically in py-shiny?
If this is a question better posted to posit community, please let me know.
@render.plot(height = my_function)
output$a_plot <- renderPlot({
...
}, height = my_function)

Research direction
Start with the @render.plot API and the try_render_matplotlib() error shown in the issue, then check how height and width arguments are passed. Done means establishing whether callable dimensions are supported and, if so, covering the behavior; otherwise, document the supported approach or limitation.
