How to Rotate Labels in a Sunburst Chart

[parthhhh]

There seems to be no way of rotating the text inside of the sunburst chart. Is there a way of fixing all the text orientation for the labels radially? So it would look like this:

Unfortunately the underlying plotly.js library doesn't have a feature for this at the moment. I would encourage you to create an issue in our sibling repo at https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/issues/new

Thanks!

Hello, the plotly.js library now have this feature available (#3590), it uses the "insidetextorientation" with the values auto|horizontal|radial|tangential

@Piplopp yep, we're working on the Python 4.5 release, which will support this.

Hello. I am using "insidetextorientation": 'radial' and it works super well. However I want to change my orientation to horizontal when I click and open a parent. Is this possible?

EDIT: Nevermind... I did this thing called coding and I figured out how to use on('plotly_click') and javascript.

Thank you for requesting this. I'm benefitting from this being discussed 3 years ago.

Hi - we are currently trying to tidy up Plotly's public repositories to help us focus our efforts on things that will help users most. Since this issue has been sitting for several years, I'm going to close it. If it's still a concern, we'd be grateful if you could open a new issue (with a short reproducible example if appropriate) so that we can add it to our backlog. Thanks for your help - @gvwilson
