Box plot: hover position of points is off #3440

Closed

Description

@aaronpries

In a box plot with boxpoints='all', the hover position of the boxes shows the correct position of the data points. The boxpoints are shifted to the left and the hoverinfo shows their x-position in the figure, which is not the same as the x-position of the data points, see the attached figure (created with plotly.py: FigureWidget.txt).
boxplot_hover

Is this desired? I would have expected to see the x-value of the data points, not the position in the figure. If a jitter is added, this may be even more confusing.

    Thanks @aaronpries, that’s most definitely not correct, it should show the data value as you say.
