hvPlot.labels

hvPlot.labels(x=None, y=None, text=None, **kwds)

Labels plot.

labels are mostly useful when overlaid on top of other plots using the * operator.

Reference: https://hvplot.holoviz.org/reference/tabular/labels.html

Parameters:

xstring, optional

The coordinate variable along the x-axis

ystring, optional

The coordinate variable along the y-axis

textstring, optional

The column to draw the text labels from; it’s also possible to provide a template string containing the column names to automatically format the text, e.g. “{col1}, {col2}”.

**kwdsoptional

Additional keywords arguments are documented in hvplot.help(‘labels’). See Plotting Options for more information.

Returns:

holoviews.element.Labels / Panel object

You can print the object to study its composition and run:

import holoviews as hv
hv.help(the_holoviews_object)

to learn more about its parameters and options.
