Interactive plots with Plotly
I'm looking for a way to generate a plot based on a plotly canvas. I want to create a surface, by clicking on the canvas so that vertices of that surface can be defined. Later, I want to extract the vertices, to be able to fine tune them in my UI. Is that something I could do with Marimo?

For
mo.ui.plotly_chart, the only interaction we support out-of-the-box is selecting groups of points. See the docs for a demo/usage: https://docs.marimo.io/guides/plotting.html#plotly8 Replies

See the docs for a demo/usage: https://docs.marimo.io/guides/plotting.html#plotlyYou might be able to achieve what you want using Plotly's click event API directly. I haven't worked with it before, so YMMV. https://plotly.com/python/click-events/

Ahhh! I just spent about two hours trying to make an interactive plotly bar chart work. Any way this could be added to the documentation more explicitly? For the dumb folks like me 🙂
Ah, sorry about that! Yes, I can improve the documentation to make that more clear. Thanks for the suggestion
If it helps, altair bar charts should be selectable
We're improving our docs. Thanks again for the suggestion, and sorry you lost a couple hours!

docs: mo.ui.plotly only supports selecting scatter plots by akshayk...
Address confusion from users, who suggested we improve our docs.
@Akshay I'm absolutely loving the tool. You've got a new promoter with me! The SQL integration is a game changer.
Woohoo! Thank you so much!
I’m in the process of building out more bite size examples for SQL. Realize it’s not totally obvious how to connect to postgres, etc
Csv import was exactly what I needed. Everything else regarding duckdb and the handoffs to pythonwas straightforward for me!
