scattergl crashes with one marker

I originally discovered problems re-creating updating this page to use v1.20.0 -- http://cpsievert.github.io/pedestrians/stl-tour/

I get different errors depending on whether viewing in Chrome or Firefox...

I assume you're saying this example falls under this category:

cartesian + gl2d subplot on the same graph are not supported

But this is not a subplot...they are 2 different graphs on the same page

What's the problem? I don't see any console errors?

[cpsievert]

Do you see errors for the second link? For the codepen, you have to uncomment this line:

//"mode": "markers",

When I do that, it freezes my browser tab in Chrome

@cpsievert I'm able to get it to crash with this simplified case involving just one plot: http://codepen.io/rsreusser/pen/woorOo?editors=0010

Plotly.plot('graph1', [{
  "x": [1],
  "y": [1],
  "mode": "markers",
  //"type": "scattergl"
}]);

Perhaps it's a problem with length-one traces?

[etpinard]

Interesting. Maybe @dfcreative would be interested in looking into this.

[cpsievert]

Yea, @rreusser, that is probably the real issue here...and now that second link is now rendering ok for me...I must be seeing things!!

[etpinard]

@cpsievert thanks for the report!

Sorry about that hasty close. I must be going blind.

This bug was introduced in 1.19.0.

I noticed the bug a fair few days ago, but I did not have the time to dig into why the scatterplot kept crashing when I started to receive data.

After finally getting free times after finishing my exams for the semester, I finally found out it was due to adding 1 data point. Opened up the issue tab to post a codepen with the issue to find out someone beat me to it.

@monfera looks like one of your patches caused this regression. Would you mind sharing some insights on why this could be happening?
