Issues with bokeh toolbar

Community Support

Hi,
I have an app running on bokeh server and I’m having some issues with the function of the toolbar.

http://jt-astro.science:5100/multiplanet_vis

I have a number of tools enabled in the main panel, plus a periodic callback to make some of the glyphs flash.

This is done via a @bounce and curdoc().add_periodic_callback(pulse_stars, 50)

However, with the periodic callback running, the wheel zoom and save tools in the toolbar do not function.

I can disable the periodic callback by commenting out the “add_periodic_callback” line, and these

tools return to function. The effect of the callback is a nice visual, so I’d like to keep it.

Is there a technique or workaround for using wheel zoom and save tools while also having a periodic

callback that manipulates glyphs?

Also: I have noticed the save tool failing in some other circumstances within complex layouts. Anyone have experience with this?

Thanks

JT

Hi,

I think I have noticed this as well, just in rushed moments when it didn't raise enough consciousness to file an issue or investigate further at the time. I'm not sure offhand that there will be a quick or simple solution, but a GitHub issue would be the appropriate next step, would you mind making one?

Thanks,

Bryan
