Support multiple lines in graph3d #2840

Open nzjrs opened 7 years ago

nzjrs commented 7 years ago

It would be great if visjs supported multiple lines on the plot. Even better if these could be updated in a way similar to how one can do it with multiple points in a scatter plot (i.e. updating points with a certain ID).

In the best case that would enable easy updating of 3d lines in a similar manner to http://visjs.org/examples/graph3d/06_moving_dots.html

this would be a feature unique to visjs, nothing else supports this.

Not sure, but I think @wimrijnders is working towards this goal.

@nzjrs Is your request the same as in https://github.com/almende/vis/issues/524?

wimrijnders commented 7 years ago

OK, so this is a graph3d issue. I see the tag now.

Hi @nzjrs,

What you describe is indeed what I am working on; not just for line plots, but for any available graph type in graph3d. The things is, it's not trivial, but I'm persevering. As it is, I'm the process of adding in the changes piecewise so that they are reviewable.

So I request you have patience; it's going to be possible in due time. Not tomorrow, but soon enough.

@yotamberk this is also a subset of #1913, which I take to be leading for my changes.

Hi @wimrijnders

Thanks for your work on this. Let me know if I can help. It would be great if these improvements retain the ability to modify the line once it has been drawn - so continuing the rich support for the visjs DataSet. I appreciate this is probably the most challenging part however. Thanks once again.

wimrijnders commented 7 years ago

@nzjrs, if by 'modification' you mean moving the graph points as in the moving dots example, yes, that will indeed be possible, on a per-graph basis. I'm actually really looking forward to make a demo for that!

nzjrs commented 7 years ago

@wimrijnders yeah, more or less. However that example uses 'filter'. In my application I just change the values for the points with the given ID and the DataSet data binding takes care of ensuring the graph is updated.

Are there any updates on this?

nzjrs commented 6 years ago

Hi @wimrijnders apologies for the intrusion.

Just wondering how the various plumbing to enable this feature is progressing and if you are still working on it?
