Multiple color bars with facetted density_contour plot

📊 Plotly Python
1

Hello Everyone,

Making a facetted density_contour plot with option contours_coloring=‘fill’ creates, what it looks like to me, several color bars that are superimposed. Here is a figure that shows this:

facet_row_contour_plot
facet_row_contour_plot700×450 51.2 KB

Based on the numbering, there are at least two color bars superimposed. Is there a way to either draw the color bar next to each figure or synchronise the color scale and draw only one?

For completeness, is the code to reproduce this:

import plotly.express as px
Iris = px.data.iris()
fig = px.density_contour(Iris, x=‘sepal_width’, y=‘sepal_length’, facet_col=‘species’)
fig.update_traces(contours_coloring=‘fill’,showlegend=False)
fig.show()

I printed the Figure object to see if there is an option I can use but nothing stood out. However, I am new to Plotly Express so I am still learning how to use the library.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Good question! You’ll have to add coloraxis="coloraxis1" inside the update_traces() call to get them to share :slight_smile:
