I was creating a scatterplot using Taipy and wanted to know the best way to include horizontal or vertical lines on the plot. In Plotly, there is a convenient function called fig.add_vline()
to add vertical lines to a scatterplot. However, I need help finding a direct equivalent function in Taipy to achieve the same result.
It would want to know if adding horizontal or vertical lines to a scatterplot is possible. This feature would allow users to easily visualize specific reference lines or thresholds in their scatterplots, aiding in data analysis and interpretation.
Creating a column with constant values is the most straightforward way. You can also do it by customizing the layout of the chart.
Here is the code for your question:
from taipy import Gui
data = {
"x": [2, 3.5, 6],
"y": [1, 1.5, 1],
}
layout = {
"shapes": [
#line vertical
{
"type": 'line',
"x0": 1, "y0": 0, "x1": 1, "y1": 2,
"line": {
"color": 'rgb(55, 128, 191)',
}
},
#Line Horizontal
{
"type": 'line',
"x0": 2, "y0": 2, "x1": 5, "y1": 2,
"line": {
"color": 'rgb(50, 171, 96)',
"dash": 'dashdot'
}
},
#Line Diagonal
{
"type": 'line',
"x0": 4, "y0": 0, "x1": 6, "y1": 2,
"line": {
"color": 'rgb(128, 0, 128)',
"dash": 'dot'
}
}
]
}
md = "<|{data}|chart|x=x|y=y|layout={layout}|>"
Gui(md).run()
