Unable to render matplotlib widgets correctly with Jupyter Notebook Renderers

[SNOWBEAR-SCI]

I don't know if this is the issue with the extension itself or if I am using it incorrectly.
The example code of slider from matplotlib can illustrate this issue:
https://matplotlib.org/stable/gallery/widgets/slider_demo.html#sphx-glr-gallery-widgets-slider-demo-py

If I run the ipynb with Jupyter notebook or the python file with vscode, the sliders and other matplotlib widgets are interactive. However, if I run the ipynb with vscode, I only get a non-interactive png output. In other words, the renderer extension does not output the interactive widgets as expected.

For kernel, I am using python 3.12 environment from anaconda in both Jupyter notebook and vscode. Most matplotlib and numpy functions except the widgets work, so I suppose the issue is with the renderer instead of kernel, function import, or other extensions.
