Export pdf of zoomed in Plotly graph

Using Streamlit
1

Summary

I have complex data which needs to be plotted using plotly, zoomed to select a preferred range and afterwards exported to pdf. I can successfully export the colored plot to pdf (see code below). However, the zoomed area is not maintained but the entire data range is exported as pdf.

Is it possible to obtain

Steps to reproduce

import plotly.io as pio
import streamlit as st
import plotly.express as px

df = px.data.tips()
fig = px.scatter(
    df,
    x="total_bill",
    y="tip",
    color="day",
    color_discrete_sequence=[
        "#0068c9",
        "#83c9ff",
        "#ff2b2b",
        "#ffabab",
        "#29b09d",
        "#7defa1",
        "#ff8700",
        "#ffd16a",
        "#6d3fc0",
        "#d5dae5",
    ],
    title="streamlit colors",
)
fig.update_layout({"uirevision": "foo"}, overwrite=True)

st.plotly_chart(fig)

# write file
pdf_bytes = pio.to_image(fig, format='pdf', scale=1.0)

# add a download button for the PDF file
st.download_button(
    label='Download PDF',
    data=pdf_bytes,
    file_name='my_plot.pdf',
    mime='application/pdf'
)

If applicable, please provide the steps we should take to reproduce the error or specified behavior.

Expected behavior:

Export the pdf according to the zoomed data range.

newplot (9)700×450 10.8 KB

Actual behavior:

The full data range is exported
