JS Control of Plot Generated by Python

I would like to make a plot that has 15 different heatmap traces (static data so I can export to file I think) and then show/hide them via external javascript, or built-in plotly functionality. I don’t think that visible=‘legendonly’ will work because then I’ll have 15 legends on screen

Thank you in advance!

Thank you!
