How to change/lower speed at which doubleclick on legend event triggers

plotly.js
1

Hi all,

We use Plotly.js to plot some graphs, with possibly lots of lines. To better focus on what’s important for the user, we tell them that they can click on a source in the legend to hide that line, or double-click on it to focus on just that line. All standard behavior.

However, our users are having difficulty with the double-click feature. They need more to double-click on an item, the development teams can double-click faster. So when our users double-click, it gets interpreted as 2 single-clicks.

Is the “debounce” time for how long a click waits for it to be a double-click configureable? If not, where can I change it for our own fork? I thought I’d find it in legends/handle_click.js but I think my limited javascript skills are not seeing it.

Thanks!

Hello @eirvandelden,

Welcome to the community!

Yes, it is possible to adjust the delay. Have a look here:

I will say, that sometimes their documentation is a little hard to pinpoint exactly where to look.

But, if you normally pair what you want to do with plotly (dash) in a google query, you can find the documentation on the site. :slight_smile:
