Sunburst plots override font size and don't position unreadable labels outside

[johentsch]

Hi everyone,

just discovered sunburst plots and am loving them! Besides the problem of text orientation that is momentarily being solved, I am wondering why it is possible to style outsidetextfont but not possible to actually place text outside the chart (at least for the last level). Similarly to pie charts, I would expect to find a textposition = 'outside' parameter. At the moment, for tiny wedges, the labels are being squeezed in no matter what, ignoring the font sizes given in insidetextfont AND textfont. Example:

import plotly.graph_objects as go
data = pd.DataFrame.from_dict({'key': {0: '#iii',
  1: '#vi',
  2: 'I',
  3: 'III',
  4: 'V',
  5: 'bII',
  6: 'i',
  7: 'ii',
  8: 'iii',
  9: 'iv',
  10: 'v',
  11: 'major',
  12: 'minor'},
 'duration': {0: 4.0,
  1: 12.0,
  2: 85.0,
  3: 202.0,
  4: 4.0,
  5: 4.5,
  6: 655.0,
  7: 5.0,
  8: 4.0,
  9: 33.5,
  10: 54.5,
  11: 295.5,
  12: 768.0},
 'parent': {0: 'minor',
  1: 'minor',
  2: 'major',
  3: 'major',
  4: 'major',
  5: 'major',
  6: 'minor',
  7: 'minor',
  8: 'minor',
  9: 'minor',
  10: 'minor',
  11: '',
  12: ''}})
fig =go.Figure(go.Sunburst(
    labels=data.key,
    parents=data.parent,
    values=data.duration,
    branchvalues="total", 
    textfont = {'size': 20},
    insidetextfont = {'size': 20},
    textinfo = "label+percent parent",
    #textposition='outside' <-- this option is missing
    ))
fig.show()

Is there any workaround to place the text outside the chart? @nicolaskruchten

Any news about this?
