Abstract
A method implements data visualization collaboration. The method receives, from a first user, a first comment that refers to a data visualization. The comment includes text, a first thumbnail image of the data visualization, and a first visual specification to build the data visualization. The method displays, to a second user, an interface with a comment pane that displays the first comment text and the first thumbnail image. The method detects input from the second user to select the first thumbnail image. In response, the method generates and displays the data visualization. The method receives, from the second user, input modifying the data visualization, and input specifying a second comment that refers to the data visualization. In response, the method generates a second thumbnail image and a second visual specification corresponding to the modified data visualization, and transmits that information along with the second comment text to the first user.
