Description

Continuing from #536…

  • undefined or invalid data #493
  • mix-sign log scale #534
  • too many ordinal values #74
  • cycling the ordinal color scale because we have more categories than colors
  • infinite values #528
  • on-the-fly data coercion #532
  • seemingly parallel facet data #1009
  • insets that result in invisible rects
  • insets and margins that result in scale range collapse
  • using ordinal data with line or area?
  • sort: {y:"x"} when y is not ordinal (suggested by @yurivish)
  • warn when requesting a color legend on non-scaled color (#2013)
