Description
Plotly Go Scatter Plot Figures allow you to add the parameter to hover over the filled area to see hover text information (specifically called hoveron). See Select Hover Points in documentation. This is not an option as of yet for Plotly Express Filled Area Charts, but would be very beneficial to include.
