Scattergl and px.line fill and continuous error bands don't appear

Summary

Using the fill and fillcolor parameters on scattergl traces (to produce continuous error bands, for example) does not work.

Issue

The issue is specific to scattergl traces: the same parameters work fine with scatter traces. To avoid the problem with plotly.express px.line() calls requires using render_mode="svg" to avoid the use of scattergl traces.

Using graph_objects has the some problem: one must use go.Scatter() and not go.Scattergl() to get error bands.

The reference for scattergl traces (https://plotly.com/python/reference/scattergl/#scattergl-fill) indicates that the behaviour should be the same as for scatter.

Example

import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import plotly.express as px

# dummy data
x = np.linspace(0, 10000, num=10_000)

df = pd.DataFrame({'x': x, 'y': x**2})
df['y_err_plus'] = df['y'] * 1.1
df['y_err_minus'] = df['y'] * 0.95

# use webgl and no fill

fig = (
px
 .line(
    df, x='x', y=['y', 'y_err_minus','y_err_plus'], 
    render_mode='webgl')
 .update_traces(
     fill='tonexty', fillcolor='red',
     selector={'name':'y_err_plus'}
 )
)
fig

# use svg to get fill

fig = (
px
 .line(
    df, x='x', y=['y', 'y_err_minus','y_err_plus'], 
    render_mode='svg')
 .update_traces(
     fill='tonexty', fillcolor='red',
     selector={'name':'y_err_plus'}
 )
)
fig

Sanity Check: fill to zero works?

Yes.

fig = (
px
.line(
    df, x='x', y='y', 
    render_mode='webgl')
.update_traces(fill='tozeroy')
)

fig

Reproduce el problema con px.line(render_mode="webgl") o go.Scattergl() usando fill="tonexty" y fillcolor, y compáralo después con los casos funcionales de scatter y render_mode="svg". Sigue la ruta de renderizado de scattergl y el manejo existente de fill; el trabajo estará terminado cuando las bandas de error continuas se rendericen en webgl, mientras el comportamiento existente de tozeroy siga siendo correcto.
