[BUG] Plotly :layout is referred to as :plot #5088

@mmikhasenko

Description

@mmikhasenko

I want to access layout.scene.camera, the extra_kwargs needs to be provided as :plot => :scene => :camera.

Not intuitive, would be good to change to a consistent call.
I could not figure out quickly, how it is processed in src/plotly.jl.

Details

Thanks to the documentations pages on extra_kwargs, I've figured out that :layout options needs to be provided as :plot.

Here is how one specify extra camera settings:

extra_kwargs = Dict(
:plot => Dict( :scene => Dict(
					:camera => Dict(
						:eye =>  Dict(:x => 1.0, :y => 1.0, :z => 1.0)
						:center => Dict(:x=>-0.05,:y=>0.0,:z=>-0.3)),
					:aspectratio => Dict(:x=>1.1,:y=>1,:z=>0.5)))

Versions
