Plotly Dropdown not updating graphs correctly-CodePudding

I am working on creating dropdown menu for my data here is my data

data = {'Time': [2,4,5,6,7], 'Voltage': [20.3, 17.2,15.3,9.4,2], "Current":[2, 5,7,8,9]}  
df = pd.DataFrame(data)

this is the code for plotting dropdowns

plot = px.Figure(data=[go.Scatter( 

    name='Voltage', 

    x=df["Time"], 

    y=df["Voltage"]
), 

    go.Scatter( 

    name='Data 2', 

    x=df["Time"], 

    y=df["Current"] 
) 
]) 

plot.update_layout( 

    updatemenus=[ 

        dict( 
            buttons=list([ 

                dict(label="Voltage", 

                     method="update", 

                     args=[{"visible": [True, False]}, 

                           {"title": "Voltage", 

                            }]), 

                dict(label="Current", 

                     method="update", 

                     args=[{"visible": [False, True]}, 

                           {"title": "Data 2", 

                            }]), 

            ]), 

        ) 

    ]) 
plot.show()

even though i am not selecting both plots to display it is showing both plots how to overcome this thanks and regards

CodePudding user response：

You need to add visible = Falseto second scatter. So it should be :

go.Scatter( 

name='Data 2', 

x=df["Time"], 

y=df["Current"] ,

visible = False)

CodePudding user response：

Your code defines the two scatter plots as one graph, so if you rewrite it to set up two graphs, the buttons are not set up incorrectly and the graph can be changed by the drop down buttons.

import plotly.graph_objects as go

fig = go.Figure()
fig.add_trace(go.Scatter(name='Voltage', x=df["Time"], y=df["Voltage"], line_color='blue')) 
fig.add_trace(go.Scatter(name='Data 2', x=df["Time"],  y=df["Current"], line_color='red'))

fig.update_layout( 
    updatemenus=[ 
        dict( 
            buttons=list([ 
                dict(label="Voltage", 
                     method="update", 
                     args=[{"visible": [True, False]}, 
                           {"title": "Voltage", 
                            }]), 
                dict(label="Current", 
                     method="update", 
                     args=[{"visible": [False, True]}, 
                           {"title": "Data 2", 
                            }]), 
            ]), 

        ) 

    ]) 
fig.show()
