Hello all. I’m currently working on a plotly figure with side by side plots (let’s just keep it simple and say two at the moment). I want to be able to have a slider for just one of the subplots, and no slider for the second. Does anyone have an idea of how to accomplish this? I’ve been searching through a lot of the examples but what I’m seeing so far are cases where the slider is shared between plots. I haven’t come across the case of creating sliders designated to specific subplots. Any help would be very much appreciated!

Hi @tanyasjeffries welcome to the forum! Are you interested in range sliders as in [https://plot.ly/python/range-slider/](https://plot.ly/python/range-slider/), or an animation slider as in [https://plot.ly/python/animations/#using-a-slider-and-buttons](https://plot.ly/python/animations/#using-a-slider-and-buttons)?

Hi Emmanuelle. I’m interested in using a range slider. Ideally I’d like to have side by side subplots where say one of the plots has a rangeslider while the other one has no slider.
