Flint 0.3 makes charts easier to explore after they are created. The MCP App can now switch chart types and edit chart properties in place, while the original Flint spec stays compact and readable.

Explore chart types

Move between compatible views without rebuilding the chart. For example, turn a dense Line Chart of food prices into compact Sparkline rows for easier comparison. Flint preserves the data roles and derives the details for the new chart type.

Edit chart properties

Edit common properties directly in the widget. For example, turn labels on in a correlation heatmap to reveal the value in every cell. Controls adapt to the selected chart and backend, and changes appear immediately.
