Daniel is such a treasurable contributor, amazing work and patience required to produce this. Could I maybe ask a Deneb question? Could it become more low-code in the future, plus more user friendly without having to check external documentation so often? What I mean is, it would be great if adding elements and properties would be easier, if I see what element or property can be added and what kind of values are expected.
Thanks very much - you're very kind! It was a really fun problem to figure out :) Regarding Deneb, I'm not planning to make it lower code for many reasons. However, I will be adding auto-completion and documentation-on-hover - like Vega Editor has - very soon. This should mitigate the need to refer to the documentation all the time. It has been a very challenging problem to solve, due to how locked-down custom visuals are and if all goes well, the next major update (probably late Q1/early Q2 2024) will include them.
@@dm-p thank you for sharing this. I've stayed away from coding things from scratch because of the learning curve and the json structure potentially becoming long and cumbersome. I just do not have the time to invest in learning the current version as it seems to require a sizeable amount of hours. Thank you again for your work, the jobs of many reporting people are easier due to folks like you.
Thank you very much Daniel and Reid for sharing. I've been looking for a way to implement IBCS graphics in Power BI. However, I have just one small problem: my Power BI report can't display SVGs whereas when I open the example provided by Daniel on your blog files, everything is displayed correctly. Has anyone encountered the same problem? is this has anything to do with regional settings (mines are Western Europe and French language settings)? I took a look at the Fabric community and someone suggested that the issue is related to the fill code and replacing the # sign by %23 (fill="#ED003C" rather than fill="%23ED003C") can handle it but this doesn't seem to work for me. Thanks to anyone in advance for the help!
Thanks for the comment! If the PBIX I have works for you, then there is definitely something in the code you're writing where it's not recognizing a character. I don't have a ton of experience on those specifically, but I do know the " quote symbols can also mess stuff up as well. But I'd consider starting with my base code, colors unchanged, and just modify the field names, see if that works.

More great content.
Is the link to the download missing from the description (or am I just blind)?
It is! The Blog Files link under resources is where you can download it :)

Thanks@@HavensConsultingfor your reply, i'll keep on trying based on the method you recommended and will see if i can find what's wrongs.
