v4.5.0

[4.5.0] - 2024-10-23

Added

• Python 3.13 support

• ggtb(): enable zoom/pan interactivity on plot [#983],[#1019]

  See example notebook.

• Interactive links in tooltips/labels/texts [#1091].

  See example notebook.

• Formatting:

  • LaTeX support: superscript, subscript ([#861]) and Greek letters ([#960]).

    See example notebook.

  • Scientific notation: compact form. Enable the compact form using the exponent_format parameter in theme() [#1071].

    See example notebook.

  [WARNING] Subscripts and superscripts are not supported in PDF and PNG exports.

• In theme():

  • legend_margin, legend_spacing, legend_spacing_x, legend_spacing_y, legend_box, legend_box_just, legend_box_spacing parameters [#1180].

    See example notebook.

  • legend_key, legend_key_size, legend_key_width, legend_key_height, legend_key_spacing, legend_key_spacing_x, legend_key_spacing_y parameters [#1181].

    See example notebook.

  • strip_background_x, strip_background_y, strip_text_x, strip_text_y parameters [#1195].

    See example notebook.

• Custom linetype patterns [#1198]:

  • a list specifying the pattern of dashes and gaps used to draw the line: [dash, gap, dash, gap, ...];
  • a list with a specified offset: [offset, [dash, gap, dash, gap, ...]];
  • a string of an even number (up to eight) of hexadecimal digits specifying the lengths in consecutive positions in the string.

  See example notebook.

• Geometries:

  • geom_blank() [#831].

  • base parameter in waterfall_plot() [#1159].

    See example notebook.

  • check_overlap parameter in geom_text() and geom_label().

    See example notebook.

  • marginal parameter in qq_plot():

    See example notebook.

  • inherit_aes parameter in layers [#1172].

• expand_limits() [#820].

  See example notebook.

• Support for 3-character hex color codes

Changed

• Parameters labwidth in facet_wrap(), x_labwidth, y_labwidth in facet_grid(): the maximum label length is applied after splitting at \n separators, if present.

• Use theme_light() as the default theme in qq_plot().

• [BREAKING] For API deprecated in v4.0 the deprecation level raised to "Error" (only relevant for Kotlin clients).

• [BREAKING] The 'base-midnight', 'base-antique' and 'base-flatblue' tilesets are deprecated (no longer served by CARTO) and will be removed in future releases.

Fixed

• Better Marimo Support (via PR-2084) [#1018].
• Support layering aes() multiple times [#822].
• waterfall_plot: faceting doesn't work without a measure mapping [#1152].
• waterfall_plot: tooltips don't work with column names from original dataset [#1153].
• Legend icon background is not transparent when legend_background is set to "blank" in theme [#1167].
• Unable to display or save graph when using geom_path [#1168].
• Legend icon background should inherit the fill color of the plot panel (i.e. grey when theme_grey is used).
• Vertex sampling uses different tolerances for objects within the same plot [#1174].
• sampling_vertex_vw doesn't work as expected [#1175].
• sampling_vertex_dp may break rings [#1176].
• ggmarginal: bottom boxplot is broken [#1189].
• Offscreen cells are sometimes not rendered in JupyterLab.
• The legend_justification parameter doesn't work if the legend_position='top' [#1031].
• coord_polar: geom_point tooltips should take in account point size [#1214].
