TensorBoard Hparm Parallel Coordinate View Problem

Troubleshooting
1

Hi,

I’m having an issue with the TensorBoard Hparm Parallel Coordinate View. It seems to be duplicated the axes on the lower half.

This happens when I make a new project and just follow the get-started.ipynb file.

I’m using a Mac and Safari browser, and here are the versions info:

guild_version:             0.7.3
tensorboard_version:       2.6.0

Additionally, when I remove one of the variables, the entire plot grows at least 30% in size. Is there a way I can keep this constant.

Lastly, runs in a notebook don’t seem to save an output.index file and guild view throws an error from this.

Thanks for the help! Let me know if I need to share anything else.

Can you share a minimum working example?

In this case you’re running TensorBoard as provided by Google (Guild doesn’t monkey patch TensorBoard or otherwise modify it. I find TB to have a number of strange sizing issues. The underlying framework Google uses is very complex and hard to contribute to/fix so our strategy has been to “take it as is and be forever grateful” :slight_smile:

Things I try in these cases:

  • First and foremost, after modifying Guild runs (new runs, deleted runs) restart TensorBoard — the dynamic behavior works well in most cases but in some cases TB just doesn’t handle new data well. A restart often cleans that up.

  • Play around with browser zoom - sometimes that balances out strange font and UI sizing.

  • Play with resizing the browser window.

I wish I could give you a better answer here — I’m basically blaming TensorBoard for all of this. But in this case, Guild really isn’t involved beyond laying out the TB log dir.
