Changing the SVG icon from a camera to a download icon

📊 Plotly Python
1

Is there a way to change the default camera icon in the mode bar layout to that of a download icon without tampering with the download capability ? Also is there a way to make it solid and not have to appear only during hover ?

Hi @ULTRA,

You can have the modebar always display using the displayModeBar config option. See https://plot.ly/javascript/configuration-options/#always-display-the-modebar for info on displayModeBar. And see https://plot.ly/python/configuration-options/ for info on how to pass config option through the Python API.

While it’s possible to add custom buttons with custom icons through the JavaScript API (See Adding a button to "modeBarButtons" with cutom image), this isn’t possible through the Python API right now.

Hope that helps,
-Jon

For those who are interested, I managed to add a custom download icon in R plotly. Since the work is done in javascript it may be possible to use this approach in python?
