Description

Version 1.11.0

This is a major release containing a large number of features and API improvements. Specifically this release was devoted to improving the general usability and accessibility of the HoloViews API and deprecating parts of the API in anticipation for the 2.0 release. To enable deprecation warnings for these deprecations set:

hv.config.future_deprecations = True

The largest updates to the API relate to the options system which is now more consistent, has better validation and better supports notebook users without requiring IPython magics. The new dim transform generalizes the mapping from data dimensions to visual dimensions, greatly increasing the expressive power of the options system. Please consult the updated user guides for more information.

Special thanks for the contributions by Andrew Huang (@ahuang11), Julia Signell (@jsignell), Jon Mease (@jonmmease), and Zachary Barry (@zbarry).
