1.1.7

Here’s what’s new in Release 1.1.7 (7 February 2018):

Bug fixes

• Geospatial visualizations using the Mapbox renderer now allow for arbitrary values to be placed on maps. Previously, the UI would restrict values to numeric types only (#460).
• Mapbox charts now correctly support popup boxes when hovering over a map symbol. The previous implementation only supported popups for numeric data types. Now, non-numeric data types are also supported in these messages (#203).
• Mapbox visualizations now properly support feature data containing quote characters. PixieDust uses a new method for loading attributes into the map’s iframe, preventing data containing quotes from breaking the process and displaying a blank canvas (#461).

Enhancements

• Charts now support aggregate value filtering. Users can now define a filter while exploring a visualization generated by PixieDust’s display() function. The old workflow forced users to shape the data by manipulating a DataFrame, and then relaunch the visualization (#127).
• PixieDust’s default table visualization has been re-architected to support new options and filtering. Highlights include the ability to display more than 100 rows of data, and the ability to use the search bar across the full data set (#595).
• Charts using the Brunel renderer now properly display the legend, and line charts with multiple lines are now clearly labelled with different colors (#519).
• Brunel-rendered charts now support subplots (#577).
• Updated icons for selecting chart types (#568).
