Embedding Projector: some metadata unsearchable

There's a lot of additional conversation there.

Potential Bug

I'm using Tensorboard's embedding projector to perform PCA/t-SNE on a dataset of features I've extracted from ~4K MIDI files. I've created a metadata TSV and pointed my Tensorflow application to it as instructed in the documentation. The metadata parses correctly in Tensorboard, however, when I use the inspector on the right-most panel, many of the fields seem to be unsearchable, or at least yield zero results for any valid query. Searching the first 13 fields (columns) works correctly, however 3 of the last fields are unsearchable, specifically artist_terms, artist_mbtags, and artist_location in embedding_logdir/metadata.tsv.

I'm finding this to be the case independent of whether regex mode is enabled or disabled. I can also confirm that these fields are being parsed correctly as I can select a data point and view the values for these problematic fields. I've also tried creating a metadata file with only those three problematic fieldnames and they continue to misbehave in this test as well.

Reproducing

I've attached my logdir complete with a checkpoint and metadata.tsv. To reproduce my results, extract the folder and launch Tensorboard from inside embedding_logdir's parent directory like so:

tensorboard --logdir embedding_logdir

Tensorboard must be run from the parent directory of embedding_logdir to maintain the correct filepath I specified for the metadata.tsv file in my TF program.

embedding_logdir.tar.gz

when i open the tensoboard ,the page is printing "fetching sprite image..."
I don‘t known how to sovle the problem.

I've known the reason for me, the path of my "sprite image" was setted wrong

@decentralion,

Can you please take a look at this comment from a similar SO issue and also the above comment from @yuqingqing? Meanwhile, can you try setting the right path for the sprite image and let us know if it helps in resolving your issue? Thanks!
