The BELIV workshop is returning this year! The theme this year is "Rethinking Design, Evaluation, and Ethics in Visualization in the Era of Generative AI," but we are always looking for work on research methods in visualization in general.

On object | Public Preview (Opt-in)

Introducing On object! The new way to build and format your visuals. We’ve heard time and again from our user research studies PBI desktop is hard to use. We’ve also seen countless new users struggle to navigate our UI to perform simple actions such as completely missing the fields pane all the way on the right side of the screen, unable to add data to the correct field wells, fishing around the format pane to rename, change colors, or format text styles of their visual. These same users instinctively right-click on areas of the visual expecting a menu to help. Aligning to our new “Office-like” strategy we bring you, on object. A new way to build and format visuals directly on the visual.
