绘制3d和2d子图

Question

I'm trying to produce 3d and 2d subplots on plotly. In a simple test case, I generate two subplots, where the first has two wireframe plots, and the second has a heatmap characterizing the difference between the two 3d plots.

When I attempt to plot either the first (3d) or the second (2d) subplot without the other one, they display correctly. But when I attempt to plot both subplots, I get the following error (offline mode in ipython):

Javascript error adding output!
TypeError: Cannot read property 'overlaying' of undefined
See your browser Javascript console for more details.

Here is the code I used to generate the plots:

#! /usr/bin/env python

from plotly import tools 
import plotly.plotly as py
import plotly.graph_objs as go
from plotly.offline import download_plotlyjs, init_notebook_mode, iplot
import numpy as np

init_notebook_mode()

# Creating the data
x = np.linspace(-5, 5, 50)
y = np.linspace(-5, 5, 50)
xGrid, yGrid = np.meshgrid(y, x)
R = np.sqrt(xGrid ** 2 + yGrid ** 2)
z = np.sin(R)
z2 = np.cos(R)

line_marker = dict(color='#0066FF', width=2)
line_marker2 = dict(color='green', width=2)

scene=dict(
 xaxis=dict(
     gridcolor='rgb(255, 255, 255)',
     zerolinecolor='rgb(255, 255, 255)',
     showbackground=True,
     backgroundcolor='rgb(230, 230,230)'
 ),  
 yaxis=dict(
     gridcolor='rgb(255, 255, 255)',
     zerolinecolor='rgb(255, 255, 255)',
     showbackground=True,
     backgroundcolor='rgb(230, 230,230)'
 ),  
 zaxis=dict(
     gridcolor='rgb(255, 255, 255)',
     zerolinecolor='rgb(255, 255, 255)',
     showbackground=True,
     backgroundcolor='rgb(230, 230,230)'
 )
)

fig = tools.make_subplots(rows=1,cols=2,specs=[[{'is_3d':True},{'is_3d':False}]])
#comment this out and subplot 2 works
for i, j, k in zip(xGrid, yGrid, z): 
    fig.append_trace(go.Scatter3d(x=i, y=j, z=k, mode='lines', line=line_marker,name='wire1'),1,1) 
for i, j, k in zip(xGrid, yGrid, z2): 
    fig.append_trace(go.Scatter3d(x=i, y=j, z=k, mode='lines', line=line_marker2,name='wire2'),1,1)

#comment this out and subplot 1 works
fig.append_trace(go.Heatmap(x=x, y=y, z=np.sqrt((z-z2)**2)),1,2) 
fig['layout'].update(title='3d with heatmap',height=600,width=1000,showlegend=False)
plot_url = iplot(fig)

Second question:

Assuming this can be handled, is there any way to have both subplots respond to hovermouse actions? (eg mouse hovering over some space in xy on the 3d plot also highlights the corresponding box on the heatmap?)

This is now possible: https://plot.ly/python/mixed-subplots/ . From their example:
