So, I had an idea. Not really my idea, but someone elses from like the 90’s or something. Would there be an interest in a WYSIWYG style plot editor as an extension to Juno/Atom? Or maybe in it’s own little pop out window in pure julia style? I have no problem with Plots.jl, but man, sometimes it’s…

I would definitely appreciate it if there was a way to interactive change axis labels, move the legend, etc. So +1 for creative ideas like this. However, remember that Plots.jl is using multiple different backends that internally work very differently. For this reason, I guess it’s very hard to cre…

Take a look at DataVoyager.jl . It is not really a WYSIWYG plot editor, more a data exploration tool. But you can still create plots interactively, and then easily get the plot specification into your running julia session as a VegaLite.jl plot. Once the vega team has created a new version of lyra t…

David thats an awesome project. Definitely inline with what I’m thinking. I started thinking, maybe a WYSWIG plot editor isn’t really the thing. Maybe good UI with plots is the problem at hand? Click to interact, then later right click to change axis, etc. I know some efforts have been made for thi…

PlotlyJS can offer the plot editor online. All it takes is to register on the site.

Wow Lyra sounds great. I kind of stopped working with VegaLite since there was too much code to write for simple data exploration (i.e quickly plotting a dataframe or a few vectors). But I may pick it up again to use with Lyra.

@affans I released a new version of VegaLite that has some features that should make these simple cases much more concise. I’ll write the changes up soon, but essentially things like this work now: @vlplot(:point, rand(10), rand(10)) (just pass vectors without a table, and the first two positions a…
