p <- plot_ly(data = swiss, x = ~Catholic, y = ~Fertility, type = "scatter", mode = "markers")
  p <- layout(p, autosize = F, 
         paper_bgcolor='#D4D4D4',
         plot_bgcolor='white',
         width = 300, 
         height = 300, 
         margin = list(b = 80, l = 80, r = 80, t = 100, pad = 0, autoexpand = TRUE)
         )

## Warning: Specifying width/height in layout() is now deprecated.
## Please specify in ggplotly() or plot_ly()
