The Charticulator application has a new dataset list that allows you to import datasets with a single click to create a chart from scratch.
The chart list view also supports quick filtering of datasets by name.
If you want to see data samples on list, contact with me. But make sure that dataset is allowed to copy and using doesn't breaks laws or agreements.
The next version of the Editor visual (1.3.0.0) will support importing pre build charts and templates from public source.
On importing chart the visual imports data and rewrites current data passed from Power BI.
Then on saving imported chart the visual opens mapping view to map chart columns to current data passed from Power BI.
On importing template the visual opens data mapping view to map current data passed from Power BI to template columns.
The Charticulator App can allow to import data from *.csv files, but there is no opportunities to pre edit, enter or edit data on chart development phase.
The PR48 closes this gap. Powered by ReactGrid component brings feature to edit current data, creating table from scratch, inserting rows and columns.
The layout of current charts are changed from vertical list to grid to display private and publicly available charts.
On PR48 page you can find link to deployment of the latest development branch.
The Charticulator App now has a built-in list of charts (gallery) that can be imported with a single click.
There are only few examples in the diagram list so far, but it will be updated soon, and will also support importing templates. If you want to add your own examples, feel free to contact me.
The list of charts has a filter of charts by name and type (private, charts that are stored in the browser's indexed database, and public, which are downloaded from a CDN).
This is one of the most significant updates for Charticulator. The mark allows to draw arbitrary shape for data visualization. The polygon support snapping to other marks or parent objects and supports basic styling like rectangle, ellipsis or triangle marks.
The mark doesn't have a icon yet. But already available for testing in application on https://ilfat-galiev.im/charticulator/ page.
Current limitations:
There is POC of the visual for rendering Markdown layout and Mermaid diagrams in Power BI reports.
The visual has built in editor powered by react-md-editor with preview feature.
Diagrams rendering powered by Mermaid
Future work:
The preview version of the visual available in Visuals menu (above)
Demo:
The Charticulator Visual Community (View) has passed the certification and will be available for end users in 2-3 weeks.
The Charticulator Visual Community (Editor) shows notification in toast when chat saves in visual settings.
Issue with scale editor popup on click on scale has been partially fixed. When user clicks on scale name on Scales list panel editor opens Scale editor.
The visual passed highlight columns correctly. Highlight controls was added into visual settings.
The visual enabled the highlight settings for editor if template contains highlight columns.
TODO: need to implement case when highlight disabled and visual doesn't filter category values.
Attribute panel has border lines for each group of properties.
The sorting axis value by another colum works now
The visual supports importing templates in edit mode.
The icons of data binding button has been fixed
The issue, when chart attributes doesn't filters properly, has been fixed
It brings more space for editing the chart. Data can be bind to properties on Attributes panel. It's not necessary to have Dataset panel always visible
You can download the latest development version in Visuals menu of blog
The Charticulator documentation has been partially moved to the doc section of the website.
The original source documentation is available in the github repository. It was deployed to https://charticulator.com/docs/, which is now unavailable.
Welcome to my blog!
Here I will be talking about my journey into the world of software development. Even though I started working in the Tech field a long time ago, I think it's never too late to start telling my story.
I'm 10+ year experience implementing UI with JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML/CSS and frameworks (React.js, Redux, ExtJS,Angular), moreover experienced in C#, .Net and Node.js for backend development.
And I'm obsessed with developing Power BI visualization.
I hope you find the blog useful.
