automatic widget resizing for reactive design

Inizia in mpl_widgets.js e riproduci il problema con un widget matplotlib in un ipywidgets.Output all’interno di un notebook Jupyter. Esamina come jupyter-matplotlib-canvas-container e jupyter-matplotlib-canvas-div ricevono la loro larghezza durante il ridimensionamento del browser. Il lavoro è completato quando il canvas segue il widget padre al variare delle dimensioni della finestra, senza trascinare manualmente la maniglia di ridimensionamento.

Describe the issue

The matplotlib widget (matplotlib widgets - ipywidgets.Output()) cannot be made reactive to browser window resizing in jupyter notebooks.

Setting the canvas style properties as recomended, i.e.
fig.canvas.layout.min_width = '400px'
fig.canvas.layout.flex='1 1 auto'
fig.canvas.layout.width = 'auto'

makes the parent widget-vbox reactive, but the actual canvas jupyter-matplotlib-canvas-container and jupyter-matplotlib-canvas-div are set to a fixed width. This width seems to only be controllably by explicitly setting a width at the time of figure creation or by manually dragging the resizing handle.
The code to resize the canvas is there in mpl_widgets.js ; It just seems not to be possible to make the canvas container react to a window size change.
