I am using the RangeSlider in Python Dash. This slider is supposed to allow users to select a range of dates to display, somewhere between the minimum and maximum years in the dataset. The issue that I am having is that each mark shows as 2k due to it being automatically rounded. The years range between 1784 and 2020, with a step of 10 each time. How do I get the marks to show as the actual dates and not just 2k? This is what I have below.
dcc.RangeSlider(sun['Year'].min(), sun['Year'].max(), 10, value=[sun['Year'].min(), sun['Year'].max()], id='years')

You can use attribute marks
to style the ticks of the sliders as follows:
marks={i: '{}'.format(i) for i in range(1784,2021,10)}
The full code:
from dash import Dash, dcc, html app = Dash(__name__) app.layout = html.Div([ dcc.RangeSlider(1784, 2020, id='non-linear-range-slider', marks={i: '{}'.format(i) for i in range(1784,2021,10)}, value=list(range(1784,2021,10)), dots=False, step=10, updatemode='drag' ), html.Div(id='output-container-range-slider-non-linear', style={'margin-top': 20}) ]) if __name__ == '__main__': app.run_server(debug=True, use_reloader=False)
