Using Sidecar in jupyterlab. Trying to show HTMl. Just shows in standard cell output instead of opening a sidecar.

Here's my code. What am I doing wrong:

sc = Sidecar(title='Trace')
ht = widgets.HTML(
value="Hello World",
placeholder='Some HTML',
description='Some HTML',
)
with sc:
display(ht)

I have also tried:

sc = Sidecar(title='Trace')
with sc:
display(HTML(functools.reduce(lambda x, y: x+y, c.htmlStream())

Both HTML implementations that I'm aware of (IPython and ipywidgets) appear to work fine. The latter seems to add some flexbox layout of its own.

from sidecar import Sidecar
sc = Sidecar(title='Sidecar Output')

from IPython.display import HTML
from ipywidgets import HTML as html

with sc:
    display(HTML('hello there'))
    display(html('<b>hello</b> there2'))

I believe this can be closed.
