[FEATURE REQUEST] Add cluster argument to other scatter plot types

Open AAnzel opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Dear Plotly Team,

First, I want to thank you for your efforts. I would like to ask if other scatter objects, such as Scatter and Scatterpolar. could also implement an argument named Cluster as seen in the Scattermapbox object. An example image is below.

Thanks in advance!

It's not an ask I've heard before, but we'd certainly be open to such a feature, particularly if you or another community member would be interested in contributing it 😉

The attributes could likely be the same or very similar, but we'd need a new implementation (in plotly.js) - for Mapbox plots we got this feature essentially for free since Mapbox has it built in, all we needed to do is connect our attributes to their API.

Hi @alexcjohnson, and thanks for a swift reply! :) I would gladly implement this feature on the Python side of the project. However, I could use some help on the Javascript side since I am not very familiar with the language. If anyone is interested, I am open to collaboration!
