category axis and shapes not playing well when data representing numbers and xref = "x"

首先執行隨附的 R 重現程式碼，使用 plot_ly() 和 layout()，比較看起來像數字的類別標籤與前綴為 '#' 的正常標籤。追蹤 xaxis type='category' 和 autotypenumbers='strict' 如何分別處理長條資料以及帶有 xref='x' 的 shapes；完成標準是看起來像數字的字串仍保持為類別，且矩形涵蓋預期的類別。

Providing a list of strings representing numbers for category axis converts them to number rather than keeping them as strings.
This for me results in the inability to use shapes to shade part of the graph.

Example of what is not working:

library(plotly)

# Sample data
x <- c("1234", "2345", "3456", "4567")
y <- c(10, 15, 8, 12)

# Create a Plotly chart with a bar plot
fig <- plot_ly(x = ~x, y = ~y)

# Define a rectangle shape
shapes <- list(
  list(
    type = "rect",
    line = list(color = "red"),
    x0 = "1234", x1 = "2345",
    y0 = 0, y1 = 1,
    xref = "x",
    yref = "paper"
  )
)

# Add the rectangle shape to the layout
fig <- fig %>% layout(
  title = 'Highlighting with Lines', 
  xaxis = list(
    type = 'category',
    autotypenumbers = 'strict'
  ),
  shapes = shapes
)

# Display the chart
fig
