Standard Error visualization for missing errors #589

Closed kronmar closed 1 year ago

kronmar commented 2 years ago

Currently in the bar plots, if the standard error for some observation/measurement is given as as "null" (i.e. no standard error is given), the error bar is displayed as a thick line width height zero.

This should not happen as it implies that an error was provided (hovering over the observation clears this by providing the real error, meaning "x [unit] +/- null [unit]"). Instead, no visualization of this error should be plotted.

An example of a dataset would be NFI: Topics by forest type and stage of development

Oh this is a bit of an older issue, I no longer had on my radar...

But maybe to help with it, here is a concrete case where such a thing would happen: https://visualize.admin.ch/en/v/lKB-Vc3eRFwg
