Remove border/line around hvplot?


Is there a way to remove the border line around a plot created with hvplot/bokeh?

import pandas as pd
import hvplot.pandas

df = pd.DataFrame({'x': [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 'y': [1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4]})

df.hvplot.line(x='x', y='y')

This example results in the following plot, where I would like to remove the red marked line:

Any suggestions? Thank you!


Solution

  • Yes, add style and remove border

    import pandas as pd
    import hvplot.pandas
    
    df = pd.DataFrame({'x': [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 'y': [1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4]})
    
    df.hvplot.line(x='x', y='y', style={'border': None})
    

    Many other parmeters can be added

    import pandas as pd
    import hvplot.pandas
    
    df = pd.DataFrame({'x': [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 'y': [1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4]})
    
    df.hvplot.line(x='x', y='y', style={
        'background_fill_color': 'white', 
        'border_fill_color': 'white', 
        'border_line_color': 'white', 
        'outline_line_alpha': 0
    })
    

    EDIT: If you get a warning you do not want to ignore

    You have two options:

    import pandas as pd
    import hvplot.pandas
    
    df = pd.DataFrame({'x': [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 'y': [1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4]})
    
    plot = df.hvplot.line(x='x', y='y', color='black').opts(
        bgcolor='white', 
        title='My Plot'
    )
    
    plot 
    
    

    or

    import pandas as pd
    from bokeh.plotting import figure, show
    from bokeh.models import ColumnDataSource
    
    df = pd.DataFrame({'x': [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 'y': [1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4]})
    
    source = ColumnDataSource(df)
    
    p = figure(title='My Plot', plot_width=400, plot_height=300)
    p.line('x', 'y', source=source, line_color='black', line_width=2)
    
    p.outline_line_alpha = 0  # Remove border
    p.grid.visible = False ) #remove grid
    show(p)
    
    

    or with the same solution I initialy provided:

    import pandas as pd
    import hvplot.pandas
    
    df = pd.DataFrame({'x': [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 'y': [1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4]})
    
    df.hvplot.line(x='x', y='y').opts(
        line_width=2,
        line_color='black',
        bgcolor='white',
    )
