[bokeh] Dynamically adding plot with children.append() always grows downward?

Hey Christopher,

children is an attribute that carries a list of objects contained within a Layout object. The orientation of the elements in the children attribute depends on the kind of Layout object they are in. In the example you provided, mainLayout is the layout being modified.

mainLayout = column(row(toggle,name='Widgets'),p1,name='mainLayout')

from this line, we can see that mainLayout is a Column object that contains a Row object and an Figure object (p1). Currently mainLayout.children looks something like this [Row(...), Figure(...)]. Since mainLayout is a Column object, objects contained within are arranged vertically and any objects added to mainLayout.children will be added to this vertical arrangement. If we wanted arrange these elements horizontally we can define the layout as a Row object:

mainLayout = row(row(toggle,name='Widgets'),p1,name='mainLayout')

This version of mainLayout will be oriented horizontally and appending new items to it’s children attribute will grow this layout horizontally.

Nested layouts can also be accessed using the same methods. If I wanted to replace the first element of the nested row, I could do something like this:

mainLayout.children[0].children[0] = my_new_widget

For more information on layouts, I suggest reading the user guide page and the reference page.

Hope this helps,

Tyler

Is there any way to make it grow in a row? Can someone share some example code where they’ve successfully did this?
