Graph in dash starts with background and doesn't initialize from the default values of the dropdown/radioitems dcc

Hi,
I have a graph that takes a couple of values from a radoitems and a dropdown dcc. the problem is, when I start dash, the Graph doesn’t initialize automatically from the default values defined in the two dcc components, leaving a white background in black-themed dash. Only, when I chose another item from the dropdown menu that the Graph start updating.
So my question is, why is dash not starting the graph from the default values of the dropdown menu when I first open it?
And how can I get rid of the white background that initially appears on the board?

Here is the dahs part of the code:

 plots_names = ['weakness', 'std', 'std_average', 'std_weak', 'p_average', 'p_repitition_average', 'p_median','p_median_all', 'p_median_average','p_range', 'p_range_average']
 
 colors = {'background': '#111111', 'text': '#7FDBFF'}

 app = Dash(__name__, external_stylesheets=[dbc.themes.CYBORG])
 app.layout = dbc.Container([
     #Main Row
     dbc.Row([
         
         #Left Column
         dbc.Col([
             
             #DashBoard Heading
             dbc.Row([
                 
                 #heading logo
                 dbc.Col([html.Img( src=app.get_asset_url('theon-logo-horizontal-white.webp'),

Thanks

In your dcc.Graph add this below may help:

figure={
    'layout': {
        'plot_bgcolor': '#111111',
        'paper_bgcolor': '#111111'
    }
}

Try adding a default value via the value property to the components test-picker and plot-picker

Thanks, this works…
