Has anyone's custom visuals stopped working / not displaying properly today?

Update:

I had to re-do all of my reports from scratch. Custom visuals now work.

I tried to update the Custom Visuals via PowerBI Desktop with a newer version, but this did not resolve the issue. I had to create a blank report and start again.

Ensure you download the latest version of your custom visual.

@ceortega, @jameslo30, Have a look at this thread - http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Developer/Custom-Visuals-Sandbox-is-coming-Here-s-what-you-need-to-k...

They have rolled out sandboxing of custom visuals, which has caused this problem. Other than the forum post above, I haven't found any mention of this elsewhere, so it has been handled poorly. There is not enough information to work out how the custom visuals now need to be designed. I believe it is only impacting custom visuals developed & deployed outside of the offical gallery. Any visuals from the gallery are not being sandboxed, so they are not impacted. What they need to do is take one of the gallery visuals and show us step by step what needs to be done to fix it. If they want to start with the linear gauge, that would be great!

Jameslo30, I couldn't agree more about the problems lately. They are driving me insane.

The link you provided didn't work once I tried to click on it.

I am still having this issue and can't seem to find any information from Microsoft on how to update these custom visuals. Anyone else find anything new?
