Description

Probably it is something very stupid, but it is driving me crazy. I hope someone can help me.
I have been trying using shapes following the instructions... whichever X0, Y0, X1, Y1, I set, the shapes don't change position.
Here following I put a very simple component showing the problem. I would expect an horizontal line at Y = 14, but this is not the case. Whichever are the values in X0, Y0, X1, Y1 and the xref/yref settings the the output is always the same as shown in the attached image
plotout
.

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import Plot from 'react-plotly.js';

class App extends Component {
render() {
const data = [{
x: [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8],
y: [10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18],
type: 'scatter',
mode: 'lines+points',
marker: { color: 'blue'}
}];

  const layout = {
    width: 600,
    height: 300,
    showlegend: false,
    shapes: [
      {
        type: 'line',
        line: {
          color: 'red',
          width: 3,
          dash: 'dot',
        },
        X0: 0,
        Y0: 14,
        X1: 8,
        Y1: 14
      }
    ]
  };

  return (
    <Plot data={ data } layout={ layout}/>
  )
}

}

export default App;

Research direction

Start with the supplied App component and inspect the layout.shapes configuration, especially the coordinate property names used for the line. Confirm the example renders a horizontal red line at Y = 14 when the coordinate fields are recognized.
