Python Figure Reference: layout.coloraxis
- coloraxis
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(...)
Type: dict containing one or more of the keys listed below.- autocolorscale
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(autocolorscale=<VALUE>)
Type: boolean
Default:True
Determines whether the colorscale is a default palette (`autocolorscale: True`) or the palette determined by `colorscale`. In case `colorscale` is unspecified or `autocolorscale` is True, the default palette will be chosen according to whether numbers in the `color` array are all positive, all negative or mixed.
- cauto
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(cauto=<VALUE>)
Type: boolean
Default:True
Determines whether or not the color domain is computed with respect to the input data (here corresponding trace color array(s)) or the bounds set in `cmin` and `cmax` Defaults to `False` when `cmin` and `cmax` are set by the user.
- cmax
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(cmax=<VALUE>)
Type: numberSets the upper bound of the color domain. Value should have the same units as corresponding trace color array(s) and if set, `cmin` must be set as well.
- cmid
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(cmid=<VALUE>)
Type: numberSets the mid-point of the color domain by scaling `cmin` and/or `cmax` to be equidistant to this point. Value should have the same units as corresponding trace color array(s). Has no effect when `cauto` is `False`.
- cmin
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(cmin=<VALUE>)
Type: numberSets the lower bound of the color domain. Value should have the same units as corresponding trace color array(s) and if set, `cmax` must be set as well.
- colorbar
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(colorbar=dict(...))
Type: dict containing one or more of the keys listed below.- bgcolor
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(colorbar_bgcolor=<VALUE>)
Type: color
Default:"rgba(0,0,0,0)"
Sets the color of padded area.
- bordercolor
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(colorbar_bordercolor=<VALUE>)
Type: color
Default:"#444"
Sets the axis line color.
- borderwidth
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(colorbar_borderwidth=<VALUE>)
Type: number greater than or equal to 0
Default:0
Sets the width (in px) or the border enclosing this color bar.
- dtick
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(colorbar_dtick=<VALUE>)
Type: number or categorical coordinate stringSets the step in-between ticks on this axis. Use with `tick0`. Must be a positive number, or special strings available to "log" and "date" axes. If the axis `type` is "log", then ticks are set every 10^(n"dtick) where n is the tick number. For example, to set a tick mark at 1, 10, 100, 1000, ... set dtick to 1. To set tick marks at 1, 100, 10000, ... set dtick to 2. To set tick marks at 1, 5, 25, 125, 625, 3125, ... set dtick to log_10(5), or 0.69897000433. "log" has several special values; "L<f>", where `f` is a positive number, gives ticks linearly spaced in value (but not position). For example `tick0` = 0.1, `dtick` = "L0.5" will put ticks at 0.1, 0.6, 1.1, 1.6 etc. To show powers of 10 plus small digits between, use "D1" (all digits) or "D2" (only 2 and 5). `tick0` is ignored for "D1" and "D2". If the axis `type` is "date", then you must convert the time to milliseconds. For example, to set the interval between ticks to one day, set `dtick` to 86400000.0. "date" also has special values "M<n>" gives ticks spaced by a number of months. `n` must be a positive integer. To set ticks on the 15th of every third month, set `tick0` to "2000-01-15" and `dtick` to "M3". To set ticks every 4 years, set `dtick` to "M48"
- exponentformat
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(colorbar_exponentformat=<VALUE>)
Type: enumerated , one of ("none"
|"e"
|"E"
|"power"
|"SI"
|"B"
)

- labelalias
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(colorbar_labelalias=<VALUE>)
Type: number or categorical coordinate stringReplacement text for specific tick or hover labels. For example using {US: 'USA', CA: 'Canada'} changes US to USA and CA to Canada. The labels we would have shown must match the keys exactly, after adding any tickprefix or ticksuffix. For negative numbers the minus sign symbol used (U+2212) is wider than the regular ascii dash.

|"pixels"
)
Default:"fraction"
Determines whether this color bar's length (i.e. the measure in the color variation direction) is set in units of plot "fraction" or in "pixels. Use `len` to set the value.
- minexponent
Code:fig.update_coloraxes(colorbar_minexponent=<VALUE>)
Type: number greater than or equal to 0

Code:fig.update_coloraxes(colorbar_nticks=<VALUE>)
Type: integer greater than or equal to 0
Default:0
Specifies the maximum number of ticks for the particular axis. The actual number of ticks will be chosen automatically to be less than or equal to `nticks`. Has an effect only if `tickmode` is set to "auto".

We add two items to d3's date formatter: "%h" for half of the year as a decimal number as well as "%{n}f" for fractional seconds with n digits. For example, "2016-10-13 09:15:23.456" with tickformat "%H~%M~%S.%2f" would display "09~15~23.46"
