Hoversubplots=axis not working with make_subplots
Initially reported on the Plotly forum.
Using make_subplots means that the hoversubplots=“axis” will not work correctly.
Sample code that produces the error: Codepen.
import plotly.graph_objects as go
from plotly import data
from plotly.subplots import make_subplots
df = data.stocks()
fig = make_subplots(rows=3, cols=1, shared_xaxes=True, vertical_spacing=0.03)
layout = dict(
hoversubplots="axis",
title="Stock Price Changes",
hovermode="x",
grid=dict(rows=3, columns=1),
)
fig.add_trace(go.Scatter(x=df["date"], y=df["AAPL"], name="Apple"), row=1, col=1)
fig.add_trace(go.Scatter(x=df["date"], y=df["GOOG"], name="Google"), row=2, col=1)
fig.add_trace(go.Scatter(x=df["date"], y=df["AMZN"], name="Amazon"), row=3, col=1)
fig.update_layout(layout)
fig.show()
Expected behavior should be the same as when using the Plotly docs hover on subplots example, where hover labels appear for all charts:
Codepen.
+1 Many folks prefer not to work with the 'go' API because it's less intuitive. A fix for make_subplots would be appreciated 🙏
+1 hitting the same issue, one cannot add multiple traces to a subplot and have the hoversubplots work at the same time
+1, though I found https://community.plotly.com/t/hover-question-how-to-info-in-all-trace/84893/2 as well, which seems to indicate it's not a bug because (if I understand correctly) make_subplots(shared_xaxes=True) doesn't actually create a single x-axis?
"REMEMBER that setting shared_xaxes=True does not assign the same name to xaxis in all subplots."
