From time to time though, it blocks on some name of file too long wich is not the case

call([‘orca’, ‘graph’, json.dumps(fig1, cls=plotly.utils.PlotlyJSONEncoder), ‘-o’, ‘the_image_name’,’-d’,‘images’,’-f’,‘svg’])
File “C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\subprocess.py”, line 323, in call

File “C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\subprocess.py”, line 1178, in _execute_chil

FileNotFoundError: [WinError 206] The filename or extension is too long

Any idea ? that’s a very odd one.

Thanks
