How to remove option bar from ggplotly plot?

Question

I have a plot that I am rendering in shiny using plotly and ggplot2. However, I do not want the option bar that appears on hover to appear. Is there a way to use ggplotly(p) and remove the option bar?

Answer 1

There is a great answer on community plotly the short version:

library(plotly)
set.seed(100)
d <- diamonds[sample(nrow(diamonds), 1000), ]

Using ggplotly:

p <- ggplot(d, aes(carat, price)) + geom_point()
ggplotly(p) %>% config(displayModeBar = F)

If you are not using ggplotly you can do:

plot_ly(d, x = carat, y = price, text = paste("Clarity: ", clarity),
mode = "markers", color = carat, size = carat) %>% config(displayModeBar = F)
