Mike & Tommy hear back from the Core Visuals team on their previous conversation, and go over all the major changes and what to expect.

--

• We launched a vision board detailing our work. This board also highlights sections of the MSFT Learn site where we are documenting everything in unprecedented detail. This process took months of discussions with the MSFT Learn team, which is why it has taken so long.

• As mentioned, the MSFT Learn documentation will be fully redesigned for core visuals articles. The new documentation will have three sections for each feature or visual: How to Create, All Format Settings, and Considerations and Limitations. See the new card visual article as an example. New documentation for the Button Slicer, Matrix and Table, Bar Charts, and the recently added Small Multiples for the new card visual is coming soon.

• I have shared examples and tutorials of the work people can do with the new features (post 1, post 2, last post). We recognize the challenge of not having better defaults and the time it takes to make things look nice. Plans are in place to address this, but we first need to establish the foundation of the options before organizing them. You mentioned it would be nice to ask Copilot to make things look good, but without the necessary controls, even Copilot won’t be able to help.
