Gist to disable Plotly Tool Bar that appears on the right top corner of Plotly plot - R Shiny App code sample

app.R

## How to disable the plotly tool bar from right top corner
## We will be using the pressure dataset for sake of demo

## Single file shiny app

## install the packages if not already
## Load the required libraries


library(shiny) # for shiny functions
library(plotly) # for interactive plot and functions from R plotly
library(datasets)

## ui component starts here
ui <- fluidPage(
  h3("R Plotly demo - disabling the Plotly tool bar"), ## heading
  br(), ## just for line break/spacing
  plotlyOutput("myplot") ## Plotly output object
  
)

## server component starts here
server <- function(input, output, session) {
  
  ## Render plotly section
  
  output$myplot <- renderPlotly(
    # plotly plot creation with required styling
    plot_ly(data = pressure, x=~temperature, y=~pressure, type = "scatter", 
            mode=c("line", "points"), marker = list(color = "#737373", size = 10),
            line = list(width = 2, color="red"),
            hoverinfo = "text", 
            text = paste("Temperature ", pressure$temperature, "<br>", "Pressure ", pressure$pressure)
            ) 
    %>%
      layout(title = "Pressure vs Temperature Plotly",
             xaxis = list(title="Temperature", range=c(0,400), showgrid=F),
             yaxis=list(title="Pressure", showgrid=F, titlefont=list(family="Arial", size=18, color="brown")),
             annotations =    list(xref = "Temperature", yref = "Pressure", x = 350, y = 100, align = "right",
