I want to show annontated heatmaps in a Plotly Dash app with annotations. The heatmap works totally fine, if I didn’t add axis labels or if the labels weren’t just string with only digits but if I added the axis labels, the figure is too small and the annotations aren’t showen correctly.
I created a simple example in Dash to illustrate my problem.
import dash_core_components as dcc
import dash_html_components as html
from dash.dependencies import Input, Output
import plotly.express as px
import plotly.graph_objects as go
import plotly.figure_factory as ff
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
external_stylesheets = ['https://codepen.io/chriddyp/pen/bWLwgP.css']
app = dash.Dash(__name__, external_stylesheets=external_stylesheets)
df = pd.read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/plotly/datasets/master/gapminderDataFiveYear.csv')
app.layout = html.Div([
dcc.Graph(id='graph-with-slider'),
dcc.Slider(
id='year-slider',
min=df['year'].min(),
max=df['year'].max(),
value=df['year'].min(),
marks={str(year): str(year) for year in df['year'].unique()},
step=None
)
])
@app.callback(
Output('graph-with-slider', 'figure'),
Input('year-slider', 'value'))
def update_figure(selected_year):
y = ['8', '9', '10', '11', '12', '13', '14', '15', '16', '17', '18']
x = ["023", "034", "045", "056", "067", "078"]
z = [[4, 4, 2, 1, 0, 0],
[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
[11, 2, 4, 0, 0, 1],
[np.nan, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
[8, 1, 6, 1, 32, 3],
[5, 0, 0, 5, 0, 0],
[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
[24, 2, 15, 1, 0, 5],
[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
[0, 0, 8, 0, 7, 0],
[0, 0, 0, 9, 0, 0]]
## it will work if i enabaled the next two lines of code
# or if axis labels where just numbers and not something like "032"
#x=["add any non numerical string and it will work" + s for s in x]
#y=["add any non numerical string and it will work" + s for s in y]
#fig = go.Figure(data=go.Heatmap(z=z))
fig =ff.create_annotated_heatmap(z=z,x=x,y=y, colorscale = ["green", "yellow", "orange", "red"], showscale = True)
layout = go.Layout(width=500, height=500,
hovermode='closest',
autosize=True,
xaxis=dict(zeroline=False),
yaxis=dict(zeroline=False, autorange='reversed')
)
fig = go.Figure(data=fig, layout=layout)
return fig
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run_server(debug=True)
