MWE for plot widget about ipympl HOT 2 CLOSED

Using the %matplotlib widget magic the code snippet does not throw an error, but it also does not produce a plot,

%matplotlib widget

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import ipywidgets as widgets

from IPython.display import display

fig = plt.figure()
fig.add_subplot(1,1,1).plot([1,2,3])

fig.canvas.draw()

box = widgets.Box(children=[fig.canvas,])
display(box)

fig.canvas.draw()

What's the missing piece?

Thanks, commits fba1226 and 0b775d1 now demonstrate the use of the canvas as a widget in the example notebook.

The reason that the previous code snippet did not produce a plot remains unclear to me -- maybe similar to #45 -- but it works now after upgrading all the relevant modules.
