[-]View scatters when zooming line graph[/-][+]View jumps when zooming line graph[/+]on Mar 22, 2025 For some severely screwed up reason, setting:
margin=dict(l=80, r=80, t=20, b=20),
Stops the jumping.
I needed to play with those numbers a bit, it will work only after a certain threshold (ie 50 was not enough for me).
@gvwilson You're most welcome. In fact, thank you.
@mikypilota If this issue has the same root cause as plotly/plotly.js#6235, it should be fixed by plotly/plotly.js#7815 and the fix is available in the latest plotly.py version, v7.0.0.
Give it a try and let us know if it fixes the issue for you!
I am experiencing the same problem described in this issue for Plotly.js.
In my python implementation, the line graph is so configured:
{ "xaxis": dict( gridcolor="rgba(128, 128, 128, 0.2)", zerolinecolor="rgba(128, 128, 128, 0.2)", showgrid=True, type="date", tickformatstops=( [dict(dtickrange=[None, None], value="%a %d %b %y - %H:%M")] ), ), "yaxis": dict( gridcolor="rgba(128, 128, 128, 0.2)", zerolinecolor="rgba(128, 128, 128, 0.2)", showgrid=True, ), "spikedistance": -1, "xaxis_showspikes": True, "yaxis_showspikes": True, "xaxis_spikemode": "across", "yaxis_spikemode": "across", "xaxis_spikecolor": "rgba(255,255,255,0.5)", "yaxis_spikecolor": "rgba(255,255,255,0.5)", "xaxis_spikethickness": 1, "yaxis_spikethickness": 1, }The problem seems to surface when the tick text is long enough and when zooming will cause the tick text to end up at a particular distance from the edge of the line graph. I notice it happens more often when the tick text overflows following a zoom and will be subsequently hidden.
The issue won't occur if I do:
Because the resulting tick text won't be long enough.
