A deep dive into MakieLayout | Julius Krumbiegel | JuliaCon2021

This talk was given as part of JuliaCon2021. Abstract: Makie.jl is a plotting package for high-performance interactive and publication-quality static data visualizations. MakieLayout, a former extension delivering flexible layouts and interactive widgets, has recently been integrated into the base package, and is now part of the default workflow. This talk will take a detailed look at the new syntax and the architecture behind the layout system, as well as highlight features that make creating complex multi-plot figures a breeze. 00:00 Welcome 00:51 Building a Figure 03:56 GridLayout protrusions 05:23 Nested protrusions 06:56 Manual bounding boxes 07:58 GridLayout and Figure Decoupling 10:40 Multiple objects in the same GridLayout cell 12:23 Tellwidth and tellheight 14:33 Mixed align mode 17:22 Placing objects in protrusions 20:03 Nesting sublayouts into figure positions 23:14 Closing remarks
