InsetMaps not properly shown with ipympl backend

[raphaelquast]

I've been having some fun with EOmaps and was trying to use the ipympl MPL backend and see this for an example from the docs. I'm curious if the difference I'm seeing here is due to this?

from eomaps import Maps
m = Maps(Maps.CRS.PlateCarree(central_longitude=-60))
m.add_feature.preset.ocean()

m_i = m.new_inset_map(xy=(5, 45), radius=10,
                      plot_position=(.3, .5), plot_size=.7,
                      boundary=dict(ec="r", lw=4),
                      indicate_extent=dict(fc=(1,0,0,.5),
                                           ec="r", lw=1)
                      )
m_i.add_indicator_line(m, c="r")

m_i.add_feature.preset.coastline()
m_i.add_feature.preset.countries()
m_i.add_feature.preset.ocean()
m_i.add_feature.cultural.urban_areas(fc="r", scale=10)
m_i.add_feature.physical.rivers_europe(ec="b", lw=0.25,
                                       fc="none", scale=10)
m_i.add_feature.physical.lakes_europe(fc="b", scale=10)

@banesullivan Thanks again for reporting! This will be fixed in the next release!

Thanks for promptly addressing! I gave up on using ipympl after that... maybe I should try more?

@banesullivan Since I consider this a major issue, I decided to release a new bugfix-release for v7.3.

If you update to EOmaps v7.3.3, InsetMaps should work again as expected with ipympl!

... and to respond to your question "...maybe I should try more?"
Yes, I would definitely encourage you to give ipympl another chance!
Aside of the pending issues concerning glitches with very fast figure updates, all functionalities should work just fine and you get
a nice interactive map inside your Jupyter notebook!

If you also integrate the qt event-loop, you can even use the companion-widget with interactive ipympl maps!

%matplotlib widget
%gui qt
