Shape

Determines whether or not this shape is visible.

Specifies the shape type to be drawn.

If line, a line is drawn from (x0,y0) to (x1,y1) with respect to the axes’ sizing mode. If circle, a circle is drawn from ((x0+x1)/2, (y0+y1)/2)) with radius (|(x0+x1)/2 - x0|, |(y0+y1)/2 -y0)|) with respect to the axes’ sizing mode. If rect, a rectangle is drawn linking (x0,y0), (x1,y0), (x1,y1), (x0,y1), (x0,y0) with respect to the axes’ sizing mode. If path, draw a custom SVG path using path. with respect to the axes’ sizing mode.

Specifies whether shapes are drawn below or above traces.

Sets the shape’s x coordinate axis.

If set to a x axis id (e.g. x or x2), the x position refers to a x coordinate. If set to paper, the x position refers to the distance from the left of the plotting area in normalized coordinates where 0 (1) corresponds to the left (right). If set to a x axis ID followed by domain (separated by a space), the position behaves like for paper, but refers to the distance in fractions of the domain length from the left of the domain of that axis: e.g., x2 domain refers to the domain of the second x axis and a x position of 0.5 refers to the point between the left and the right of the domain of the second x axis. If the axis type is log, then you must take the log of your desired range. If the axis type is date, then you must convert the date to unix time in milliseconds.

Sets the shapes’s sizing mode along the x axis.

If set to scaled, x0, x1 and x coordinates within path refer to data values on the x axis or a fraction of the plot area’s width (xref set to paper). If set to pixel, xanchor specifies the x position in terms of data or plot fraction but x0, x1 and x coordinates within path are pixels relative to xanchor. This way, the shape can have a fixed width while maintaining a position relative to data or plot fraction.

Sets the shapes’s sizing mode along the x axis.

If set to scaled, x0, x1 and x coordinates within path refer to data values on the x axis or a fraction of the plot area’s width (xref set to paper). If set to pixel, xanchor specifies the x position in terms of data or plot fraction but x0, x1 and x coordinates within path are pixels relative to xanchor. This way, the shape can have a fixed width while maintaining a position relative to data or plot fraction.

Only relevant in conjunction with xsizemode set to pixel.

Specifies the anchor point on the x axis to which x0, x1 and x coordinates within path are relative to. E.g. useful to attach a pixel sized shape to a certain data value. No effect when xsizemode not set to pixel.

Sets the shape’s starting x position.

See type and xsizemode for more info.

Sets the shape’s end x position.

See type and xsizemode for more info.

Sets the annotation’s y coordinate axis.

If set to a y axis id (e.g. y or y2), the y position refers to a y coordinate. If set to paper, the y position refers to the distance from the bottom of the plotting area in normalized coordinates where 0 (1) corresponds to the bottom (top). If set to a y axis ID followed by domain (separated by a space), the position behaves like for paper, but refers to the distance in fractions of the domain length from the bottom of the domain of that axis: e.g., y2 domain refers to the domain of the second y axis and a y position of 0.5 refers to the point between the bottom and the top of the domain of the second y axis.

Sets the shapes’s sizing mode along the y axis.

If set to scaled, y0, y1 and y coordinates within path refer to data values on the y axis or a fraction of the plot area’s height (yref set to paper). If set to pixel, yanchor specifies the y position in terms of data or plot fraction but y0, y1 and y coordinates within path are pixels relative to yanchor. This way, the shape can have a fixed height while maintaining a position relative to data or plot fraction.

This way, the shape can have a fixed height while maintaining a position relative to data or plot fraction.

Only relevant in conjunction with ysizemode set to pixel.

Specifies the anchor point on the y axis to which y0, y1 and y coordinates within path are relative to. E.g. useful to attach a pixel sized shape to a certain data value. No effect when ysizemode not set to pixel.

Sets the shape’s starting y position.

See type and ysizemode for more info.

Sets the shape’s end y position.

See type and ysizemode for more info.

For type path - a valid SVG path with the pixel values replaced by data values in xsizemode/ysizemode being scaled and taken unmodified as pixels relative to xanchor and yanchor in case of pixel size mode.

There are a few restrictions / quirks only absolute instructions, not relative. So the allowed segments are: M, L, H, V, Q, C, T, S, and Z arcs (A) are not allowed because radius rx and ry are relative. In the future we could consider supporting relative commands, but we would have to decide on how to handle date and log axes. Note that even as is, Q and C Bezier paths that are smooth on linear axes may not be smooth on log, and vice versa. no chained “polybezier” commands

• specify the segment type for each one. On category axes, values are numbers scaled to the serial numbers of categories because using the categories themselves there would be no way to describe fractional positions On data axes: because space and T are both normal components of path strings, we can’t use either to separate date from time parts. Therefore we’ll use underscore for this purpose: 2015-02-21_13:45:56.789

Sets the opacity of the shape.

Undocumented

Determines whether the shape could be activated for edit or not.

Has no effect when the older editable shapes mode is enabled via config.editable or config.edits.shapePosition.

When used in a template, named items are created in the output figure in addition to any items the figure already has in this array.

You can modify these items in the output figure by making your own item with templateitemname matching this name alongside your modifications (including visible: false or enabled: false to hide it). Has no effect outside of a template.

Used to refer to a named item in this array in the template.

Named items from the template will be created even without a matching item in the input figure, but you can modify one by making an item with templateitemname matching its name, alongside your modifications (including visible: false or enabled: false to hide it). If there is no template or no matching item, this item will be hidden unless you explicitly show it with visible: true.
