Python Figure Reference: indicator Traces

A plotly.graph_objects.Indicator trace is a graph object in the figure's data list with any of the named arguments or attributes listed below.

An indicator is used to visualize a single `value` along with some contextual information such as `steps` or a `threshold`, using a combination of three visual elements: a number, a delta, and/or a gauge. Deltas are taken with respect to a `reference`. Gauges can be either angular or bullet (aka linear) gauges.

  • name
    Code: fig.update_traces(name=<VALUE>, selector=dict(type='indicator'))
    Type: string

    Sets the trace name. The trace name appears as the legend item and on hover.

    Type: dict containing one or more of the keys listed below.
    • align

      Type: enumerated , one of ( "left" | "center" | "right" )

      Sets the horizontal alignment of the title. It defaults to `center` except for bullet charts for which it defaults to right.

    • font
      Code: fig.update_traces(title_font=dict(...), selector=dict(type='indicator'))
      Type: dict containing one or more of the keys listed below.

      Type: dict containing one or more of the keys listed below.
      • dtick
        Code: fig.update_traces(gauge_axis_dtick=<VALUE>, selector=dict(type='indicator'))
        Type: number or categorical coordinate string

        Sets the step in-between ticks on this axis. Use with `tick0`. Must be a positive number, or special strings available to "log" and "date" axes. If the axis `type` is "log", then ticks are set every 10^(n"dtick) where n is the tick number. For example, to set a tick mark at 1, 10, 100, 1000, ... set dtick to 1. To set tick marks at 1, 100, 10000, ... set dtick to 2. To set tick marks at 1, 5, 25, 125, 625, 3125, ... set dtick to log_10(5), or 0.69897000433. "log" has several special values; "L<f>", where `f` is a positive number, gives ticks linearly spaced in value (but not position). For example `tick0` = 0.1, `dtick` = "L0.5" will put ticks at 0.1, 0.6, 1.1, 1.6 etc. To show powers of 10 plus small digits between, use "D1" (all digits) or "D2" (only 2 and 5). `tick0` is ignored for "D1" and "D2". If the axis `type` is "date", then you must convert the time to milliseconds. For example, to set the interval between ticks to one day, set `dtick` to 86400000.0. "date" also has special values "M<n>" gives ticks spaced by a number of months. `n` must be a positive integer. To set ticks on the 15th of every third month, set `tick0` to "2000-01-15" and `dtick` to "M3". To set ticks every 4 years, set `dtick` to "M48"

      • exponentformat
        Code: fig.update_traces(gauge_axis_exponentformat=<VALUE>, selector=dict(type='indicator'))
        Type: enumerated , one of ( "none" | "e" | "E" | "power" | "SI" | "B" )
        Default: "B"

        Determines a formatting rule for the tick exponents. For example, consider the number 1,000,000,000. If "none", it appears as 1,000,000,000. If "e", 1e+9. If "E", 1E+9. If "power", 1x10^9 (with 9 in a super script). If "SI", 1G. If "B", 1B.

      • labelalias
        Code: fig.update_traces(gauge_axis_labelalias=<VALUE>, selector=dict(type='indicator'))
        Type: number or categorical coordinate string

        Replacement text for specific tick or hover labels. For example using {US: 'USA', CA: 'Canada'} changes US to USA and CA to Canada. The labels we would have shown must match the keys exactly, after adding any tickprefix or ticksuffix. For negative numbers the minus sign symbol used (U+2212) is wider than the regular ascii dash. That means you need to use −1 instead of -1. labelalias can be used with any axis type, and both keys (if needed) and values (if desired) can include html-like tags or MathJax.

      • minexponent
        Code: fig.update_traces(gauge_axis_minexponent=<VALUE>, selector=dict(type='indicator'))
        Type: number greater than or equal to 0

        Code: fig.update_traces(gauge_axis_nticks=<VALUE>, selector=dict(type='indicator'))
        Type: integer greater than or equal to 0
        Default: 0

        Specifies the maximum number of ticks for the particular axis. The actual number of ticks will be chosen automatically to be less than or equal to `nticks`. Has an effect only if `tickmode` is set to "auto".

        Default: "all"

        If "all", all tick labels are displayed with a prefix. If "first", only the first tick is displayed with a prefix. If "last", only the last tick is displayed with a suffix. If "none", tick prefixes are hidden.

      • showticksuffix
        Code: fig.update_traces(gauge_axis_showticksuffix=<VALUE>, selector=dict(type='indicator'))
        Type: enumerated , one of ( "all" | "first" | "last" | "none" )
        Default: "all"

        Same as `showtickprefix` but for tick suffixes.

      • tick0
        Code: fig.update_traces(gauge_axis_tick0=<VALUE>, selector=dict(type='indicator'))
        Type: number or categorical coordinate string

        Sets the placement of the first tick on this axis. Use with `dtick`.

If the axis `type` is "date", it should be a date string, like date data. If the axis `type` is "category", it should be a number, using the scale where each category is assigned a serial number from zero in the order it appears.

      • tickangle

Provide multiple font families, separated by commas, to indicate the preference in which to apply fonts if they aren't available on the system. The Chart Studio Cloud (at https://chart-studio.plotly.com or on-premise) generates images on a server, where only a select number of fonts are installed and supported.

  • uirevision
    Code: fig.update_traces(uirevision=<VALUE>, selector=dict(type='indicator'))
    Type: number or categorical coordinate string

    Controls persistence of some user-driven changes to the trace: `constraintrange` in `parcoords` traces, as well as some `editable: True` modifications such as `name` and `colorbar.title`. Defaults to `layout.uirevision`. Note that other user-driven trace attribute changes are controlled by `layout` attributes: `trace.visible` is controlled by `layout.legend.uirevision`, `selectedpoints` is controlled by `layout.selectionrevision`, and `colorbar.(x|y)` (accessible with `config: {editable: True}`) is controlled by `layout.editrevision`. Trace changes are tracked by `uid`, which only falls back on trace index if no `uid` is provided. So if your app can add/remove traces before the end of the `data` array, such that the same trace has a different index, you can still preserve user-driven changes if you give each trace a `uid` that stays with it as it moves.
