Hello,
I would like to plot nested categorical data similar to the example shown in
But with four or more nesting levels, which fails.
How can I achieve this?
Kind regards,
Marco

Nested categorical data with more than 3 levels
Hi,
This is not supported, Bokeh can only accommodate up to three levels of nesting. I'd say that this is probably unlikely to change, as the amount of added complexity needed to support more levels is not justified for such a rare use case. In terms of a practical workaround, I'd suggest faceting your plots at this point (and also as a matter of personal opinion about effective visualization).
Thanks,
Bryan
