Description
Problem summary
Whenever I have the following combination:
- plotly express
- facet plots
- labels used for axis are strings
The first subplot shows the axis labels properly, but all following subplots don't show labels at all:

If the axis labels are numbers, there is no problem.
From a comment of the initial issue I opened I now know that fig.update_traces(bingroup='x2', row=1, col=2) can work around the issue, but that's not a permanent solution.
Reproducible example
I originally created these plots in Python (plotly 5.18.0) and then used the .to_json(pretty=True) method to obtain the Javascript for the codepens.
- Manually building up the figure using
graph_objectsandmake_subplotsI get the following working visualization: https://codepen.io/sl1970/pen/BaMvNbp - If I use the convenient
plotly.expresslibrary and thefacetargument I get this broken visualization (no axis labels on the right plot): https://codepen.io/sl1970/pen/jOdXPoa
Original Python code
If necessary, this is the original Python code I used
import pandas as pd
import plotly.express as px
from plotly.subplots import make_subplots
import plotly.graph_objects as go
df = pd.DataFrame(
{
"age": { "0": "Adult", "1": "Adult", "2": "Adult", "3": "Adult", "4": "Adult", "5": "Kid", "6": "Kid", "7": "Kid", "8": "Kid", "9": "Kid", },
"favourite_food": { "0": "Pizza", "1": "Noodles", "2": "Pizza", "3": "Pizza", "4": "Pizza", "5": "Burger", "6": "Pancake", "7": "Noodles", "8": "Pizza", "9": "Pancake", },
"favourite_drink": { "0": "Beer", "1": "Tea", "2": "Beer", "3": "Wine", "4": "Coffee", "5": "Coffee", "6": "Water", "7": "Beer", "8": "Tea", "9": "Wine", },

"number_of_bicycles": { "0": 4, "1": 2, "2": 1, "3": 3, "4": 4, "5": 3, "6": 3, "7": 3, "8": 4, "9": 2, },
}
)
df.set_index("age", inplace=True)
working = make_subplots(rows=1, cols=2, subplot_titles=["Food", "Drink"])
working.add_trace( go.Histogram( histfunc="count", histnorm="percent", x=df.loc["Adult"].favourite_food, name="Adult", legendgroup="Adult", ), row=1, col=1, )
working.add_trace( go.Histogram( histfunc="count", histnorm="percent", x=df.loc["Kid"].favourite_food, name="Kid", legendgroup="Kid" ), row=1, col=1, )
working.add_trace( go.Histogram( histfunc="count", histnorm="percent", x=df.loc["Adult"].favourite_drink, name="Adult", legendgroup="Adult", ), row=1, col=2, )
working.add_trace( go.Histogram( histfunc="count", histnorm="percent", x=df.loc["Kid"].favourite_drink, name="Kid", legendgroup="Kid" ), row=1, col=2, )
working.show()
broken = px.histogram(
df,
x=["favourite_food", "favourite_drink"],
facet_col="variable",
color=df.index,
barmode="group",
histnorm="percent",
text_auto=".2r",
).update_xaxes(matches=None, showticklabels=True).update_yaxes(matches=None, showticklabels=True)
broken.show()

Piste de recherche
Commencez par le traitement de l’histogramme et des facettes de plotly.express décrit dans l’exemple Python reproductible, puis comparez sa figure générée avec l’exemple make_subplots fonctionnel et les CodePens liés. La tâche est terminée lorsque les libellés d’axe de type chaîne catégoriels sont rendus sur chaque facette sans nécessiter de workaround bingroup, avec un test de régression couvrant ce cas.
