Suggestion for Parallel Coordinates Plot #3420

plotly express Parallel Coordinates for dataframe data with categorical and numeric data types

I notice the plotly expression version of the parallel coordinates plot doesn't accept category columns. It would be nice to have support for that when a user has a dataframe with mixed types.
I know it's possible to have that in the graph_objects by creating numeric index for tickvals and set the ticktext to the categorical labels, but it's not that convenient. Especially, a user will have mixed data types when visualizing machine learning hyperparameter tuning history. Would it be a good feature to add for future releases?

Hi - we are trying to tidy up the stale issues and PRs in Plotly's public repositories so that we can focus on things that are still important to our community. Since this one has been sitting for several years, I'm going to close it; if it is still a concern, please add a comment letting us know what recent version of our software you've checked it with so that I can reopen it and add it to our backlog. Thanks for your help - @gvwilson
