PX fixedrange=True overrides matching yaxis in facets

[hbaniecki]

Is this intentional? If so, how can i preserve matching yaxis?

import plotly.express as px
df = px.data.tips()
fig = px.scatter(df, x="total_bill", y="tip", color='sex', facet_col="day", facet_col_wrap=2)
fig.show()                                         # one yaxis for all facets

fig.update_yaxes(fixedrange=True) # yaxis changes

Edit: code, plots are the same

In this context, fixedrange means "prevent panning and zooming", so in this case the matching still works: you can't pan or zoom any of the plots in the Y direction.

@nicolaskruchten I dont understand, how is the matching working? I get different yaxis for every facet.

Oh, I see what you mean, sorry, I misunderstood. Yes, it would be nice if the fixedrange logic took into account the matching axes... For the moment you will have to manually set the y-axis range to get them to match.

I filed an issue in the underlying JS library: plotly/plotly.js#5064

Hi - we are trying to tidy up the stale issues and PRs in Plotly's public repositories so that we can focus on things that are still important to our community. Since this one has been sitting for several years, I'm going to close it; if it is still a concern, please add a comment letting us know what recent version of our software you've checked it with so that I can reopen it and add it to our backlog. Thanks for your help - @gvwilson
