Change axis scale (e.g. from Kilometers to Meters)

plotly.js
1

I am looking for way to change the scale of a simple x y line plot.

The y axis contains the values in units of meters but I would like to be able to change the plotted units with a afew simple html radio buttons

I would like to update the plot with the new scale one each radio button is pressed

any tips or suggestions are much appreciated

I would imagine I can use the var update and plotly.relayout but I can’t find a scale option

var update = {
xaxis: {
title: ‘Distance in meters’,
},
};
Plotly.relayout(‘myDiv’, update)

Many thanks

Unfortunately, plotly.js doesn’t offer an easy way to scale its axes.

I’d recommend replotting with scaled data instead: http://codepen.io/etpinard/pen/RaPvGg

Thanks for the answer I’m now trying to adapt it so that it can find all the traces and then scale them all
