This chapter describes the new things introduced with version 2 (December 2014).
Option value
The biggest changes refers to the way you can specify a value for an option. With the version 2, several options can now be defined has a array of values or has a function. This could be done for almost all options, but it has been implemented to only the ones where it would make a sense. I you have a need for an option where it is not yet implemented, it should be easy to make the change in the code. Just ask for it (open an issue for it and an explanation why you will use it) and it will be implemented.
With this new possibility, several open requests could be resolved (Issue 169, issue 187, issue 84, issue 198).

New specifications
New specifications for Line datasets and for Radar datasets :you can now draw several markers on points : circles, diamonds, squares, plus, cross and triangles.
New variables for templates
With the first version of ChartNew.js, variables v1->v12/v13 could be used in templates for InGraphData and Annotates. With version 2, lot of others variables can be used. And adding a new variable would be easy. So if you have a request for an additional variable, just ask for it (open an issue for it and explain which variable you want) and it will be added.
