Due to the number of traces I have on a scatter plot, when hovering over the data using “Compare data on hover” the resulting hover text does not fit vertically on the screen. Is it possible to “scroll” through the hover text when there are this many traces? I know you can make the hover text smaller, but I would like to keep the font at default size for better readability.
