+### Disabling Buttons for Specific Axes
+
+*New in 6.3*
+
+Disabling the zoom in, zoom out, and autoscale buttons for specific axes is supported on cartesian axes using the `modebardisable` attribute. In the following example, the zoom in and zoom out buttons are disabled on the `xaxis`, meaning these buttons only zoom in and out on the `yaxis`. Disable the autoscale button using `modebardisable='autoscale'`. You can also disable the zoom and autoscale buttons using `modebardisable='zoominout+autoscale'`.
+
+```python
+import plotly.graph_objects as go
+import plotly.data
+
+df = plotly.data.stocks()
+
+fig = go.Figure(
+    data=[
+        go.Scatter(

+
+*New in 6.3*
+
+Customize the title shown in unified hovermode, by specifing `unifiedhovertitle.text`.
+
+The unified hover title is a template string that supports using variables from the data. Numbers are formatted using d3-format's syntax `%{variable:d3-format}`, for `example \"Price: %{y:$.2f}\"`. Dates are formatted using d3-time-format's syntax `%{variable|d3-time-format}`, for example `\"Day: %{2019-01-01|%A}\"`.

+#### Legend Max Height
+
+*New in 6.3*
+
+By default, a legend can expand to fill up to half of the layout area height for a horizontal legend and the full height for a vertical legend. You can change this by specifying a `maxheight` for the legend. `maxheight` is interpreted as a ratio if it is 1 or less, and as an exact pixel value if it is greater than 1. In the following plot with many legend items, we set `maxheight` to a ratio of 0.10, giving the plot more space.
