Glyphs are not reflecting values update in ColumnDataSource

I am trying to show and hide the circle glyphs using a MultiSelect widget. As you can see from the code below the callback function successfully empties the ColumnDataSource dictionary, but the glyphs are still in the graph.

I have used a Slider widget similarly and I was able to filter glyphs successfully.

If you run the code below and then select and unselect the Liquid option from the MultiSelect list on the webpage you should be able to see in the terminal prints that liquid.data is being updated, but the glyphs (orange circles) on the webpage do not change.

Anyone know the reason?

Hi Adi,

The problem is that when you are calling .circle you are passing an explicit data source, AND also passing in a list literal (for size). This causes all kinds of problems and has been recently deprecated (you should see a warning with the lates version) and will result in an error in the very near future. If you are passing the "source" argument to a glyph method, then ALL the column data needs to go in that source.

Just FYI the clue to figuring this out quickly was to look at the browsers JS console for messages. In this case it said:

  [bokeh] – "Error handling message: Error: attempted to retrieve property array for nonexistent field 'size', [object MessageEvent]"

Then I immediately noticed that you'd pass size as a list literal.

Thanks,

Bryan
