Fully display the amount in horizontal bar chart

With fig.update_traces(textposition="outside", textangle=0 ), chart plus text over the background will not able to fully display.

With fig.update_traces(textposition="inside", textangle=0 ), chart too short will not fully display the text amount as well.

So, is there any way to make it win-win situation?

fig = px.bar(pie_bar_gp, x='Amount', y='Product', title='Pie-Bar' ,orientation='h' 
                ,text='Amount', text_auto=",.2f"
                )      
    

    fig.update_layout(barmode="group")
    fig.update_layout({
          'paper_bgcolor': 'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)',
        })

chart with:

    fig.update_traces(textposition="inside", textangle=0 )

 fig.update_traces(textposition="outside", textangle=0 )

In such cases, you can pass a list of the positions you wish to display for each value. The example in the reference is forced to limit the range of the x-axis, creating the same situation as your assignment. I have set my threshold as 25, anything below that is outside and everything else is inside.

import plotly.express as px

data_Rwanda = px.data.gapminder().query("country == 'Rwanda'")
txt_position = ['outside' if x <= 25 else 'inside' for x in data_canada['lifeExp']]

fig = px.bar(data_Rwanda, x='lifeExp', y='year', orientation='h',text='lifeExp',text_auto=',.2f')

fig.update_xaxes(range=[23,50])
fig.update_traces(textposition=txt_position, textfont=dict(color='red', size=14))
fig.update_layout(autosize=True, height=600)
fig.show()

Yes, you can do this if you provide a list of text positions for each bar.

positions = ['inside','inside','inside','outside','inside', 'inside'] 
fig = px.bar(pie_bar_gp, x='Amount', y='Product', 
  title='Pie-Bar', orientation='h', text='Amount', text_auto=",.2f")

fig.update_traces(textposition=positions) 
fig.show()
