This issue relates to https://github.com/plotly/dash/issues/508. Setting an empty figure, later overwritten to a figure with data and layout does not exhibit expected behavior for `fixedrange` in axis. Example that exhibits the incorrect behavior: https://codepen.io/anon/pen/JwRxOo Minimal example that exhibits the correct behavior: https://codepen.io/anon/pen/xmEBVR Neither of these examples exhibit this problem when used directly (w/o the react wrapper)
