+#### Disabling Pan/Zoom on Axes (Fixed Range)
+
+Pan/Zoom can be disabled for a given axis by setting `fixedrange` to `True`.
+
+```python
+import plotly.express as px
+df = px.data.iris()
+
+fig = px.scatter(df, x="sepal_width", y="sepal_length", facet_col="species")
+fig.update_xaxes(fixedrange=True)
+
+fig.show()

 ### Fixed Ratio Axes
 
 The `scaleanchor` and `scaleratio` axis properties can be used to force a fixed ratio of pixels per unit between two axes.
