I want to make a matplolib interactive (I can zoom in/out, etc.) in databricks. This is achieved in Jupyter notebook by the following code:
%matplotlib notebook
How to achieve this in databricks?
Thank you

I wish it was that simple. "Import matplotlib.pyployt" allow you to plot but as static plots. I need an interactive plot.

Hi @Elias Abou Zeidโ, To enable interactive matplotlib figures in Databricks, you can use the %matplotlib magic command with the inline backend.
Try using
%matplotlib inline
at the top and press Enter. This will enable the inline backend for matplotlib and allow you to display matplotlib figures directly in the notebook.

Hi there, while facing a similar issue we switched to Altair python library and it works great with Databricks. (other options can be Bokeh or Plotly).

Thanks @Andrii Muzychukโ. I already have a complex interactive plot function developed using matplotlib under jupyter. I imported to Databricks, but unfortunately for now I have not figured out a way to make it work interactively in DataBricks. Instead of re-writing it from scratch is there a way to convert a matplotlib figure to Altair ( I have tried plotly mpl_to_plotly but it does not work properly for my plot).?
