</div>I changed the resolution to "accepted" and you don't need to send<br>
another patch before sending your project proposal.<br>
<div><div></div><div><br></div></div></blockquote><div>Thanks<br><br>I had a doubt (it might be silly but I thought I should ask). One important feature of such a data visualization system is that it should not create confusion or represent something that the data is not. Consider the movie database example, when a user sees a plot of ratings vs year / genre vs lanuage, a lot of data points will overlap. So a lot of data will be hidden from the user at the first sight. What will a user make out of it? I know we handle such conditions by providing all the data instances when he clicks on the point but a user might not go that far. If he is not able to understand the initial plot he might not continue further ( like not zoom in/click data point). I am just a little concerned about the usability part and not the functionality.<br>
