Axes in plots spans outside of plotted data by default (not much in this example, other plots might be more prominent) import plotly.express as px import pandas as pd data = pd.Series([1,2,4,8], index=[1,2,3,4]) px.scatter(data) How to get rid of the extra values below and above the actual data r…

Thank you, I found the autorange options, but none of them achieves the thing I need, sadly. Well, as often with plotly, I ended up writing my function which does something similar. Maybe will come handy for someone. def clip_axis_range( fig, x_lower=True, x_upper=True, y_lower=Fal…

Just to understand: you do not want to use autorange=True (which is the default) and you do not want to set the range manually? import plotly.express as px import pandas as pd data = pd.Series([1,2,4,8], index=[1,2,3,4]) fig = px.scatter(data) fig.update_xaxes(range=[1,4]) [newplot (4)]

Yes, exactly. Autorange leaves gaps on x axis below lowest and highest values, I want the axis to be exactly the range of the data. I also don’t want to set manually, because often I don’t know the exact highest and lowest values in plotted data. Also it gets complicated if there are multiple axis…

There are some things you can specify, search for Autorange Options here:

Unfortunately I can’t see a direct way to adjust the padding of the min/max values of the axes. I guess this is done within plotly JS.
