Description
Right now we can specify bar lengths in milliseconds on date axes but this is interpreted in a browser-timezone-dependent manner, which seems like a clear bug that makes this feature unusable. See https://codepen.io/nicolaskruchten/pen/qBOKdQG ...
Basically, the following figure JSONs (which differ only in x
) should probably have the same output, regardless of timezone of browser:
{
"data":[{"base":["2020-02-06 00:00"],"orientation":"h","type":"bar",
"x":[86400000],"y":[1]}],
"layout":{"xaxis":{"type":"date"}
}
}
{
"data":[{"base":["2020-02-06 00:00"],"orientation":"h","type":"bar",
"x":["1970-01-02 00:00"],"y":[1]}],
"layout":{"xaxis":{"type":"date"}}
}
