Overwhelmingly wide plots #114

Images output by cells seem to always use the entire width of the window. This means that, on a landscape screen, a square plot does not fit on my monitor. This makes working with plots utterly unreasonable.

As an relatively quick fix, I suggest that we should be able to specify either

  • A fraction output_image_relative_width (default value: 0.33) in the settings such that the output images have width = output_image_relative_width * window_width OR
  • A fraction output_image_width (default value: 500) in the settings such that the output images have width = output_image_width

I work in Julia, which produced the following output with the pyplot library that appeals to matplotlib:

(If I change the size=(1000,1000) to take different values, this changes only the resolution of the plot generate. It does not change the actual size of the image drawn)
