Glyph sizes change on save in charticulator in Power BI

In working with the Charticulator visual in Power BI, I have encountered the following issues:

 

  1. Glyph sizes change during the save.   Before clicking Save in Charticulator in Power BI:

    After clicking the Save button in Charticulator in Power BI:

    The size of the glyph changes during the Save.   

  2. There is no clear way to center align axes ticks and labels with data.

  3. The Glyph editor is somewhat shaky at best.  If I drag one of the blue dots, either no change occurs or an unreversible change occurs.

  4. No Undo for unintentional changes to Glyphs made in the Glyph Editor.

  5. Charts are limited to 10,000 data points.

     

    From what I can see, Charticulator looks like a potentially useful tool.  It's just not quite there yet.

Thanks Lucien,

 

I have been through these and other tutorials.  I am going through an advanced Power BI class on Udemy.  This course includes a lecture on Charticulator issues.  I was finally able to produce the chart below.  However,  I still have a number of issues.  I have submitted some issues on GitHub.  These are:

 

  1. The Glyph Editor does not let me edit the size of the glyph by dragging an anchor.  If I drag an anchor it simply snaps back to the original location and no changes are made.  I can only size glyphs through the Width and Height properties.

  2. I am still trying to find a way to center the x-axis ticks and labels with the data.

Can you tell me which charticulator course you take on Udemy? I'm also having many problems with charticulator.
