Components plots doubling in Jupyterlab

When plotting model components charts in Jupyterlab, they appear twice:

In the notebook, I have set %matplotlib inline, so the charts are plotted directly below notebook cells.

You can place a ‘;’ behind your statement in order to get the plot only once. I think this is due to the fact that the plot is already rendered in the function.

Correct, it is because jupyter will automatically render any matplotlib plots, and will in addition to that print the output of the last line in the cell (in this case the figure, hence the duplication). Semicolon will suppress printing the last line in the cell so you’ll get it only once. Alternatively you can assign the output of plot to a variable and it won’t print the 2nd time:

fig = model.plot_components(forecast)
