I am creating a plotly.express timeline plot with python. I want to show text in the boxes of the timeline, but the problem is that the text is sometimes too long for the boxes.
The annotations are placed with textposition=“auto”.
fig.update_traces(textposition="auto", insidetextanchor="middle")
Unfortunately, the boxes are partially hiding the outside text now:
So, my question is whether I can move the text of the outside annotations downwards, so that they are below the bars. I found that the “update_annotation” function can work also on a subset, but unfortunately I did not find any example on how to do that.
Can anyone help me or indicate where an answer to this question is already given? Thank you all in advance.
