✨ Overview & highlights

Viewer

🔎 Added entity filtering/searching
🔔 Recent notifications show now in a dedicated panel
🖱️ Entity ranges can now be selected with shift + click
❓ Improved panel help
🖼️ Crisper UI rendering
🧊 Faster 3D transforms

APIs

🔄 Much easier partial updates of archetypes
📊 Greatly improved ease of use of send_columns
⏱️ Python notebooks & JS can now control the timeline and panel states (see last section of this notebook)
📝 Lots of new snippets for demonstrating partial updates & custom data logging in Python/C++/Rust

The API & related under-the-hood changes pave the way for better support for multiple archetypes on the same entity and components with generic types in future releases. Stay tuned!

⚠️ Breaking changes

Passing raw batches of components is no longer supported. Instead, use the partial update APIs (or in rare cases, explicitly serialize the components).

Check the 🧳 Migration guide for before/after snippets for all languages for this and other smaller breaking changes.

0.21.0 - Graph view, 3D Grid & UI/UX improvements

📖 Release blogpost: https://rerun.io/blog/graphs

🧳 Migration guide: https://rerun.io/docs/reference/migration/migration-0-21

✨ Overview & highlights

Graph view

We've added two new logging primitives: GraphNodes and GraphEdges that can be used to visualize node-link diagrams. For this, we have implemented a new Graph View that uses force-based layouts to draw graphs.

This video demonstrates the main features of the new graph view:

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/77db75c9-a8d8-401d-b90d-3daf08baf0ba

You can also have a look at https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/pull/7500 if you want to learn to more.

UX improvements

This video demonstrates the main UX improvements that went into this release:

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/bef071b5-0681-41b2-9ef0-1c6a557ff138

3D grid

The 3D view now offers an infinite 3D grid, enabled by default. Further controls and settings are available as usual through the blueprint API and/or the selection panel.

All the nitty gritty details in https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/pull/8230 and https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/pull/8234.

Undo/Redo support & many more UI/UX improvements

You can now undo/redo blueprint changes in the viewer! Watch @emilk putting it to action and explains how it works:

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a29c099d-35a3-4d32-8946-932b5a184943

Other UX improvements

But that's not the only thing that improved in the viewer:

Breadcrumbs show up in the selection menu now
Take screenshots of views from context menus
Entities can now be dragged from Blueprint & Streams panel into views

Index of code snippets

We now have a new index for all our code snippets.

You can use it to quickly find copy-pastable snippets of code for any Rerun feature you're interested in (API, Archetypes, Components, etc). No special tools required -- all you need is a keyword of interest, and plain old text search.

It's still the early days so it is far from perfect, but we think it can already be quite helpful; feedback welcome. Most of it is auto-generated, so it will never get out of sync!

⚠️ Breaking changes

Near clip plane for Spatial2D views now defaults to 0.1 in 3D scene units.
Blueprint: types and fields got renamed from .*space_view.*/.*SpaceView.* to .*view.*/.*View.*.
3D transform arrow visualization show up less often by default.
DisconnectedSpace archetype/component is deprecated in favor of implicit invalid transforms (like zero scale or zero rotation matrix).
RotationAxisAngle with zero rotation axis is no longer treated as identity.
