-You can position and style minor ticks on a Cartesian axis using `minor`. This takes a `dict` of properties to apply to minor ticks. Available properties include: `tickmode`, `tickvals`, `tickcolor`, `ticklen`, `tickwidth`, `dtick`, `tick0`, `nticks`, `ticks`, `showgrid`, `gridcolor`, `griddash`, and `gridwidth`.
+You can position and style minor ticks on a Cartesian axis using the `minor` attribute. This takes a `dict` of properties to apply to minor ticks. See the [figure reference](https://plotly.com/python/reference/layout/xaxis/#layout-xaxis-minor) for full details on the accepted keys in this dict.
 
 In the following example, we add minor ticks to the x-axis and then to the y-axis. For the y-axis we add ticks on the inside: `ticks="inside"`. On the x-axis we've specified some additional properties to style the minor ticks, setting the length of the ticks with `ticklen` and the color with `tickcolor`. We've also turned on grid lines for the x-axis minor ticks using `showgrid`.
 
-Note: Minor ticks and grid lines are not currently supported on color bars, ternary plots, polar charts, geo plots, or on multi-categorical, or 3D axes.
