Hey guys,

I would like to ask you, if there is a solution for my problem with boxplot visualizations.  
I have about 70 boxplots and for some of them, the on\_hover label is shown in a bad shape and is unreadable.

This is wrong one.

This is correct one.

How can I solve this issue? Changing the settings for x axis and different manipulation didn’t help anyhow.

Thanks!

Hi @xdaniel,

This isn’t a problem I’ve noticed before. We’ll probably need to open a bug report with the plotly.js project at [https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js). Could you make up a reproducible example that shows the problem and open an issue there?
