Trace uid not generated

[dmossie]

Hey there,

When I create a new trace using plotly.js@1.41.3, it is not generated with a uid.
I downgraded to plotly.js@1.35.2 and it worked fine.

I am not sure if this is a compatibility issue or a plotly.js issue.

This change was introduced in 1.39 of plotly.js. You can see the motivation for it in this PR

Hey @dmt0 - thanks for your response. Do you know if it is possible to get them to show up again? I want to upgrade to the newest version of all the plotly packages, but I rely on the trace UIDs for some business specific customization's I have made.

You can't really get them in data, but they are still in fullData.

Thanks @dmt0
Do you know how to go about accessing fullData?
Also - is it possible to access outside the editor - such as using the onUpdate prop?

graphDiv._fullData
Where graphDiv is the reference to the

where plotly.js lives.
Basically it's a structure that's in plotly.js library, not react-chart-editor, so yes, you can access it anywhere.
