Research direction
Start with the plot_ly(z = ~volcano, type = "surface") example and trace how matrix dimensions are mapped for surface plots. Compare the convention with MASS::kde2d(), then verify that the first matrix dimension maps to x and the second to y in the rendered surface.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
For example:
plot_ly(z = ~volcano, type = "surface")
Obviously, the 1st dimension of matrix volcano is interpreted as the 'y', while the 2nd dimension as the 'x'.
However, a more natural order is: 1st dimension of matrix to be 'x', while the 2nd dimension to be 'y'. Such interpretation is in other R packages such as MASS: the function kde2d() will returns x, y and z matrix, where the dim1 and 2 of z is x and y respectively.
