Create and add a new image to the figure’s layout

Parameters
  • arg – instance of Image or dict with compatible properties

  • layer – Specifies whether images are drawn below or above traces. When xref and yref are both set to paper, image is drawn below the entire plot area.

  • name – When used in a template, named items are created in the output figure in addition to any items the figure already has in this array. You can modify these items in the output figure by making your own item with templateitemname matching this name alongside your modifications (including visible: false or enabled: false to hide it). Has no effect outside of a template.

  • opacity – Sets the opacity of the image.

  • sizex – Sets the image container size horizontally. The image will be sized based on the position value. When xref is set to paper, units are sized relative to the plot width. When xref ends with ` domain`, units are sized relative to the axis width.

  • sizey – Sets the image container size vertically. The image will be sized based on the position value. When yref is set to paper, units are sized relative to the plot height. When yref ends with ` domain`, units are sized relative to the axis height.

  • sizing – Specifies which dimension of the image to constrain.

  • source – Specifies the URL of the image to be used. The URL must be accessible from the domain where the plot code is run, and can be either relative or absolute.

  • templateitemname – Used to refer to a named item in this array in the template. Named items from the template will be created even without a matching item in the input figure, but you can modify one by making an item with templateitemname matching its name, alongside your modifications (including visible: false or enabled: false to hide it). If there is no template or no matching item, this item will be hidden unless you explicitly show it with visible: true.

  • visible – Determines whether or not this image is visible.

  • x – Sets the image’s x position. When xref is set to paper, units are sized relative to the plot height. See xref for more info

  • xanchor – Sets the anchor for the x position

  • xref – Sets the images’s x coordinate axis. If set to a x axis id (e.g. “x” or “x2”), the x position refers to a x coordinate. If set to “paper”, the x position refers to the distance from the left of the plotting area in normalized coordinates where 0 (1) corresponds to the left (right). If set to a x axis ID followed by “domain” (separated by a space), the position behaves like for “paper”, but refers to the distance in fractions of the domain length from the left of the domain of that axis: e.g., x2 domain refers to the domain of the second x axis and a x position of 0.5 refers to the point between the left and the right of the domain of the second x axis.

  • y – Sets the image’s y position. When yref is set to paper, units are sized relative to the plot height. See yref for more info

  • yanchor – Sets the anchor for the y position.

  • yref – Sets the images’s y coordinate axis. If set to a y axis id (e.g. “y” or “y2”), the y position refers to a y coordinate. If set to “paper”, the y position refers to the distance from the bottom of the plotting area in normalized coordinates where 0 (1) corresponds to the bottom (top). If set to a y axis ID followed by “domain” (separated by a space), the position behaves like for “paper”, but refers to the distance in fractions of the domain length from the bottom of the domain of that axis: e.g., y2 domain refers to the domain of the second y axis and a y position of 0.5 refers to the point between the bottom and the top of the domain of the second y axis.

  • row – Subplot row for image. If ‘all’, addresses all rows in the specified column(s).

  • col – Subplot column for image. If ‘all’, addresses all columns in the specified row(s).

  • secondary_y – Whether to add image to secondary y-axis

  • exclude_empty_subplots – If True, image will not be added to subplots without traces.
