We’re continuing to add polish to Chart cells with a couple of helpful improvements to standard chart functionality.

• Area Charts are now supported, and pair especially well with Line layers when visualizing data that’s lightly related.

• You can sort chart axes by the values of the other axis. This sounds weird no matter how you say it for some reason, so here’s a nice GIF example! PS: this only works for ordinal and nominal axis types.

• Duplicate chart as Python cell now outputs a Python dict, not a JSON string. This makes custom chart configs a lot more readable, and more easily parameterized based on app logic.
