We’ve just released the latest versions of our graph visualization toolkits. KeyLines 7.1 (for JavaScript developers) and ReGraph 4.1 (for React developers), feature big performance gains and greater flexibility for our popular sequential layout. Read on to find out more.
Sequential layout up to 5x faster
The sequential layout is now significantly faster when you run it on a dataset where levels haven’t been specified. In tests, we’ve measured between 2 and 5 times faster depending on the dataset.
By popular demand, we’ve also added the option to sort the nodes in a sequential level in both ascending and descending order.
KeyLines users can try the new sorting option in the updated Display Hierarchies demo, while ReGraph users can check out the Hierarchies story.
ReGraph 4.1: faster foregrounding & enhanced search
Interactive fast foregrounding
There’s now an easier way to specify which items to foreground during an interaction, and it’s 400% faster than before.
New story: Geospatial Combos
We’ve added a new Geospatial Combos story to show how to simplify geospatial networks by grouping items into combos. It’s an effective way to declutter busy map-based charts and find the location-based insights that matter.
Search website content more easily
We’ve improved the ReGraph SDK UI and extended its search capability. Now, when you run a search, there are options for your results to include the many useful ReGraph posts, tutorials and webinars available on this website.
KeyLines 7.1: demo enhancements
For those of you working with KeyLines’ React component, there’s a new, improved React Integration demo. It shows font icons and tooltips, so you can include these useful features in your React applications without having to code from scratch.
The node customization innovations we released in the last version of our graph visualization toolkits have been a big hit with customers, and we’ve seen some beautiful and imaginative designs. To keep inspiring UX improvements, we’ve updated 3 popular KeyLines demos with advanced label styling: Map Layers, Insurance Fraud Analysis and Credit Card Fraud.
