Evidently drift plots: percentage view toggle added in 0.4.1

TL;DR

To compare distributions across different sample sizes in Evidently, use the percentage view toggle on distribution plots (added in 0.4.1) instead of reading raw counts.

Steps

1. To compare distributions across different sample sizes in Evidently, use the percentage view toggle on distribution plots (added in 0.4.1) instead of reading raw counts. No parameter is needed; both views render on every plot.

When to use

You are seeing this: No parameter is needed; both views render on every plot. Use this skill when you run into "Evidently drift plots: percentage view toggle added in 0.4.1".

When not to use

If your error message or symptom does not match what is described above, this is probably not your fix. Search for your exact error text instead of forcing this one to fit.

Versions

Versions mentioned in the source: 0.4.1. If you are on something much newer or older, the details may have shifted.

Why this happens

The original report does not dig into a root cause. It documents the symptom and the fix that resolved it.

Source: Evidently issue #705 (closed): a user asked for density-plot style percentage scaling on DataDriftPreset distribution histograms, since absolute counts hide the shape when sample sizes differ. Maintainer elenasamuylova confirmed the feature shipped in Evidently 0.4.1: every distribution plot now has a button to switch between absolute and percentage views, so both visualizations are always available with no extra parameter.

Verified resolution: To compare distributions across different sample sizes in Evidently, use the percentage view toggle on distribution plots (added in 0.4.1) instead of reading raw counts. No parameter is needed; both views render on every plot.
