Plotly chart area cuts off text - charts

Question

I have the following plotly code:
var element = document.getElementById(scope.changeid);
function getData(division,redraw) {
var employeeData = [];
if (!division) {
$http.get(api.getUrl('competenceUserAverageByMyDivisions', null)).success(function (response) {
processData(response,redraw);
});
}
else {
$http.get(api.getUrl('competenceUserAverageByDivision', division)).success(function (response) {
processData(response,redraw);
})
}
}
function processData(data,redraw) {
var y = [],
x1 = [],
x2 = [];
data.forEach(function (item) {
y.push(item.user.profile.firstname);
x1.push(item.current_level);
x2.push(item.expected);
});
var charData = [{
x: y,
y: x1,
type: 'bar',
name: $filter('translate')('COMPETENCES.GRAPH.CURRENT'),
marker: {
color: '#23b7e5'
}
}, {
x:y,
y:x2,
type: 'bar',
marker: {
color: '#f05050'
},
name: $filter('translate')('COMPETENCES.GRAPH.EXPECTED')
}],
layout = {
title: $filter('translate')('USERMANAGEMENT.USERS'),
barmode: 'stack',
legend: {
traceorder: 'reversed'
}
};
Plotly.newPlot(element,charData,layout);
}
scope.$watch('divisionId', function (newValue, oldValue) {
if (newValue) {
getData(newValue.id,true);
}
}, true);
getData(null,false);
This generates the following chart:
<div class="panel-body">
<h4 class="text-center">{{'COMPETENCES.GRAPH_TITLES.OVERVIEW_GAP' | translate}}</h4>
<vertical-bar-chart id="chartArea" goto="competence.titleCompetenceDetails"
changeid="chartArea" xcolumn="xColumn" y-column="yColumn"
dataset="dataSet"
has-addition="true"
style="width: 80%; text-align: center"></vertical-bar-chart>
</div>
As you might be able to tell the text (x column) is being unintentionally cut off. So my question is how can i avoid this? i have attempted to increase the height of the element however without any luck :(
AS you can see here:
(oh you cant tell because of the white background but the height of panel body is 1000 px however it still cuts it off.)

Answer 1

Try increasing the bottom margin in layout.margin.b (more info in the plotlyjs reference page.

Answer 2

For reference, I had the same issue, margin bottom didn't help, but after the graph was created, I ran the following JQuery which revealed the hidden text:
var heightincrease = $('#yourID').find('.svg-container').height() + 100;
$('#yourID').find('.svg-container').height(heightincrease).find('.main-svg').height(heightincrease);
Obviously adjust as required to reveal your whole graph. Will probably break resizing so will need work if that's a concern.
