This is probably a silly question but is there an option to see the x-axis values vertically instead of horizontally?
Hi @medeirov! Welcome to the Streamlit community!
That’s a good question and one that I’ve asked before as well. So you’re in good company
What library are you using to create your plot? It’s fairly straightforward with matplotlib. You can specify a rotation for the x-tick labels in degrees or with keywords. Here are a few illustrative examples:
import streamlit as st
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x = [1, 2, 3, 4]
y = [1, 4, 9, 6]
labels = ['Frogs', 'Hogs', 'Bogs', 'Slogs']
fig = plt.figure(figsize=(12, 5))
plt.plot(x, y)
# You can specify a rotation for the tick labels in degrees or with keywords.
plt.xticks(x, labels, rotation='horizontal')
st.pyplot(fig)
rotation='horizontal
rotation='vertical’
rotation=45
Hope this helps! Feel free to reach out with follow-up questions
Happy Streamlit-ing!

Hi! Thanks a lot for the response.
I was using the standard streamlit (st.bar_chart())
But since that works with matplotlib as well, I’ll just switch to that one.
Thanks, again!
st.bar_chart
is a convenience wrapper around st.altair_chart
, so that there is a quickstart way to plot the data. But as you’ve noticed, there aren’t any arguments for flipping the axes or doing other customizations. So either switching to matplotlib as @snehankekre showed, Altair or another plotting library will allow you to specify the chart exactly how you want it.
Best,
Randy
