Disabling Bokeh Toolbar

Community Support

Hi all,

is there a way to completety disable bokeh toolbar for some plots, remove the helper button or the Bokeh logo? We are trying to set up a dense fact-sheet consisting of multiple bokeh widgets and the result is not very pleasing due to visual clutter.

Nothing against a (very nice) bokeh logo/helper toolbar, we just cannot accept it on every single plot :slight_smile:

Best,

Kamil

Set plot.toolbar_location = None.

Thanks! I needed it in bokeh-scala, and here

.toolbar_location(Location.Auto)

worked :slight_smile:

Sorry, I forgot that this is Scala-related. This solution works by accident, because plot’s frame simply ignores invalid values for toolbar_location field and ‘auto’ doesn’t have currently any meaning (it really shouldn’t be a member of this enum). The proper way to do it is as follows:

new Plot().toolbar_location()

This is exactly equivalent to Python’s Plot(toolbar_location=None). This is because, on the most basic level, fields are implemented as:

class Field[T] {

private var value: Option[T] = _

def apply(value: T) { this.value = Some(value) }

def apply() { this.value = None }

}

I don’t give direct access to the Option[T], just to T, because I’m not sure yet how to implement optional fields properly.
