R Figure Reference: waterfall Traces

A waterfall trace is initialized with plot_ly or add_trace:
plot_ly(df, type="waterfall"[, ...])
add_trace(p, type="waterfall"[, ...])

A waterfall trace accepts any of the keys listed below.

Draws waterfall trace which is useful graph to displays the contribution of various elements (either positive or negative) in a bar chart. The data visualized by the span of the bars is set in `y` if `orientation` is set to "v" (the default) and the labels are set in `x`. By setting `orientation` to "h", the roles are interchanged.

  • type
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: "waterfall"
  • name
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: string

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

  • visible
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: enumerated , one of ( TRUE | FALSE | "legendonly" )
    Default: TRUE

    Determines whether or not this trace is visible. If "legendonly", the trace is not drawn, but can appear as a legend item (provided that the legend itself is visible).

  • showlegend
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: boolean
    Default: TRUE

    Determines whether or not an item corresponding to this trace is shown in the legend.

  • legend
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: subplotid
    Default: legend

    Sets the reference to a legend to show this trace in. References to these legends are "legend", "legend2", "legend3", etc. Settings for these legends are set in the layout, under `layout.legend`, `layout.legend2`, etc.

  • legendrank
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: number
    Default: 1000

    Sets the legend rank for this trace. Items and groups with smaller ranks are presented on top/left side while with "reversed" `legend.traceorder` they are on bottom/right side. The default legendrank is 1000, so that you can use ranks less than 1000 to place certain items before all unranked items, and ranks greater than 1000 to go after all unranked items. When having unranked or equal rank items shapes would be displayed after traces i.e. according to their order in data and layout.

  • legendgroup
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: string
    Default: ""

    Sets the legend group for this trace. Traces and shapes part of the same legend group hide/show at the same time when toggling legend items.

  • offset
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: number or array of numbers

    Shifts the position where the bar is drawn (in position axis units). In "group" barmode, traces that set "offset" will be excluded and drawn in "overlay" mode instead.

    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: string or array of strings
    Default: ""

    Sets text elements associated with each (x,y) pair. If a single string, the same string appears over all the data points. If an array of string, the items are mapped in order to the this trace's (x,y) coordinates. If trace `hoverinfo` contains a "text" flag and "hovertext" is not set, these elements will be seen in the hover labels.

"outside" positions `text` outside, next to the bar end (scaled if needed), unless there is another bar stacked on this one, then the text gets pushed inside. "auto" tries to position `text` inside the bar, but if the bar is too small and no bar is stacked on this one the text is moved outside. If "none", no text appears.

  • texttemplate
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: string or array of strings
    Default: ""

    Template string used for rendering the information text that appear on points. Note that this will override `textinfo`. Variables are inserted using %{variable}, for example "y: %{y}". Numbers are formatted using d3-format's syntax %{variable:d3-format}, for example "Price: %{y:$.2f}". https://github.com/d3/d3-format/tree/v1.4.5#d3-format for details on the formatting syntax. Dates are formatted using d3-time-format's syntax %{variable|d3-time-format}, for example "Day: %{2019-01-01|%A}". https://github.com/d3/d3-time-format/tree/v2.2.3#locale_format for details on the date formatting syntax. Every attributes that can be specified per-point (the ones that are `arrayOk: TRUE`) are available. Finally, the template string has access to variables `initial`, `delta`, `final` and `label`.

  • hovertext
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: string or array of strings
    Default: ""

    Sets hover text elements associated with each (x,y) pair. If a single string, the same string appears over all the data points. If an array of string, the items are mapped in order to the this trace's (x,y) coordinates. To be seen, trace `hoverinfo` must contain a "text" flag.

  • hoverinfo

    Type: flaglist string. Any combination of "name", "x", "y", "text", "initial", "delta", "final" joined with a "+" OR "all" or "none" or "skip".
    Examples: "name", "x", "name+x", "name+x+y", "all"
    Default: "all"

    Determines which trace information appear on hover. If `none` or `skip` are set, no information is displayed upon hovering. But, if `none` is set, click and hover events are still fired.

  • hovertemplate
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: string or array of strings
    Default: ""

    Template string used for rendering the information that appear on hover box. Note that this will override `hoverinfo`. Variables are inserted using %{variable}, for example "y: %{y}" as well as %{xother}, {%_xother}, {%_xother_}, {%xother_}. When showing info for several points, "xother" will be added to those with different x positions from the first point. An underscore before or after "(x|y)other" will add a space on that side, only when this field is shown. Numbers are formatted using d3-format's syntax %{variable:d3-format}, for example "Price: %{y:$.2f}". https://github.com/d3/d3-format/tree/v1.4.5#d3-format for details on the formatting syntax. Dates are formatted using d3-time-format's syntax %{variable|d3-time-format}, for example "Day: %{2019-01-01|%A}". https://github.com/d3/d3-time-format/tree/v2.2.3#locale_format for details on the date formatting syntax. The variables available in `hovertemplate` are the ones emitted as event data described at this link https://plotly.com/javascript/plotlyjs-events/#event-data. Additionally, every attributes that can be specified per-point (the ones that are `arrayOk: TRUE`) are available. Finally, the template string has access to variables `initial`, `delta` and `final`. Anything contained in tag `<extra>` is displayed in the secondary box, for example "<extra>{fullData.name}</extra>". To hide the secondary box completely, use an empty tag `<extra></extra>`.

  • xhoverformat
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: string
    Default: ""

    Sets the hover text formatting rulefor `x` using d3 formatting mini-languages which are very similar to those in Python. For numbers, see: https://github.com/d3/d3-format/tree/v1.4.5#d3-format. And for dates see: https://github.com/d3/d3-time-format/tree/v2.2.3#locale_format. We add two items to d3's date formatter: "%h" for half of the year as a decimal number as well as "%{n}f" for fractional seconds with n digits. For example, "2016-10-13 09:15:23.456" with tickformat "%H~%M~%S.%2f" would display "09~15~23.46"By default the values are formatted using `xaxis.hoverformat`.

  • yhoverformat
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    Type: string
    Default: ""

    Sets the hover text formatting rulefor `y` using d3 formatting mini-languages which are very similar to those in Python. For numbers, see: https://github.com/d3/d3-format/tree/v1.4.5#d3-format.

Attributes such as trace `name`, graph, axis and colorbar `title.text`, annotation `text` `rangeselector`, `updatemenues` and `sliders` `label` text all support `meta`. To access the trace `meta` values in an attribute in the same trace, simply use `%{meta[i]}` where `i` is the index or key of the `meta` item in question. To access trace `meta` in layout attributes, use `%{data[n[.meta[i]}` where `i` is the index or key of the `meta` and `n` is the trace index.

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. These include "Arial", "Balto", "Courier New", "Droid Sans",, "Droid Serif", "Droid Sans Mono", "Gravitas One", "Old Standard TT", "Open Sans", "Overpass", "PT Sans Narrow", "Raleway", "Times New Roman".

  • uirevision
    Parent: data[type=waterfall]
    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.
