Contour

public struct Contour<ZData, XData, YData> : Trace, XYSubplot where ZData : Plotable, XData : Plotable, YData : Plotable

The data from which contour lines are computed is set in z.

Data in z must be a {2D array} of numbers. Say that z has N rows and M columns, then by default, these N rows correspond to N y coordinates (set in y or auto-generated) and the M columns correspond to M x coordinates (set in x or auto-generated). By setting transpose to true, the above behavior is flipped.

  • 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.
