    • Which axis carries a trace's error bars, or null when it draws none.

      Plotly resolves an error_x/error_y container onto every trace that could carry one, so the visible flag — not the container's presence — is what says a chart drew intervals. A trace with both gets its vertical ones read: a MAIDR error-bar layer carries one interval per sample, and the vertical is the one a reader means by "the error bar".

      Lives here, beside the selector, because the two must agree: reading the y bounds while highlighting path.xerror would announce one interval and light up another.

      Parameters

      Returns "x" | "y" | null

      'y', 'x', or null when neither axis draws an interval
