This PR updates the
add_trace
,add_traces
, andadd_{trace}
figure method to return the figure their called on, rather than the newly created trace(s).This is a breaking change for v4, as these methods used to return the newly created traces. The motivation for the change is to support method chaining. e.g.
Code that formerly relied on the returned trace
will need to be updated for v4 compatibility to grab the newly added trace from the returned figure's data array
