Overview
This feature is meant to allow users to click on an exisiting topo map and highlight a corresponding ICA trace.
The Current Behavior
Improvement
Instead of altering the existing trace, I’d like to implement a system where a duplicate trace is created behind the original. This duplicate trace would either:
This "background highlight" would only appear when a component is selected (i.e., during a callback), preserving the original trace while visually signaling selection.
This system is based off an existing article: https://community.plotly.com/t/how-to-give-glow-to-scatter-plot/65660/3. It seems to be that the "glowing" traces must be created at the same time as the "marker" traces with the "glowing" traces' opacity set to 0. The callback would trigger the opacity to increase so that the trace is visible.
