+### Setting the Midpoint of a Diverging Colorscale
+The following example uses [marker.cmid](https://plot.ly/python/reference/#scatter-marker-cmid) attribute to set the mid-point of the color domain by scaling 'cmin' and/or 'cmax' to be equidistant to this point. It only has impact when [marker.color](https://plot.ly/python/reference/#scattercarpet-marker-line-color) sets to a numerical array, and 'marker.cauto' is `True`. 
+
+```python
+import plotly.graph_objects as go
+
+fig = go.Figure()
+fig.add_trace(go.Scatter(
+    y=list(range(-5,15)),
+    mode="markers",
+    marker={"size": 25, "color": list(range(-3,10)), "cmid": 0}))
+
+fig.show()
+```
+
+The heatmap chart uses [marker.zmid](https://plot.ly/python/reference/#scatter-marker-zmid) attribute to set the mid-point of the color domain.
+
+```python
+import plotly.graph_objects as go
+
+a = list(range(-10,5))
+b = list(range(-5,10))
+c = list(range(-5,15))
