Double click to zoom out alternates between ranges

[Kurappu]

Double click to reset zoom when an axis range is specified causes the double click zoom out behavior to alternate between the specified range and fully zoomed out on subsequent double clicks.

Reproduction

1. Create new plot with a trace using Plotly.newPlot
2. Specify a layout where at least one axis has a range specified
3. Double click to fully zoom out
4. Double click again to zoom back in to the specified range

See: https://codepen.io/Kurappu/pen/jOxpMvj

Expected

Double clicking to zoom out multiple times should not alternate between zoom states (step 4 above should result in nothing happening)

While they touch on few related points, they don't seem to mention anything about the alternating issue I'm experiencing.

I am also confused about this behavior.

Stumbled upon this while (I think) encountering the same / similar thing on the Python side. I'm curious if the doubleClick behavior is what you're referring to. I think the alternation between zoom states is by design - in that it will move between reset and autosize because reset+autosize is the default behavior. Looking at your codepen, you could modify it this way to see the different options. I'm wondering if reset is the behavior you're looking for? In that once you zoom in, a double click will reset it then do nothing else?

EDIT: Reading it through some more maybe you actually want just autosize?

// var config = {doubleClick: false}
var config = {doubleClick: 'reset'}
// var config = {doubleClick: 'autosize'}
// var config = {doubleClick: 'reset+autosize'}

Plotly.newPlot('myDiv', data, layout, config);

      /**
       * Double click interaction (false, 'reset', 'autosize' or 'reset+autosize')
       */
      doubleClick: PropTypes.oneOf([
          false,
          'reset',
          'autosize',
          'reset+autosize',
      ]),
