Pandas bar plot edge to dash

Question

I have a bar plot and I can successfully turn the fill color to transparent. Now I'd like to change the edge to a dashed line, instead of a solid.

df.plot(kind='barh', x='state', y='population', color=[1,0,0,0], edgecolor='blue', width=0.5)

I've tried edgestyle, I've tried style='-' and '--'.

Is dash-ing only available for line plots?

Answer 1

df.plot(kind='barh', x='state', y='population', color=[1,0,0,0], edgecolor='blue', width=0.5, linestyle="--")
