+## 0.6.16
+
+[Released August 6, 2024.](https://github.com/observablehq/plot/releases/tag/v0.6.16)
+
+The new [waffle mark](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/waffle) 🧇 displays a quantity (or quantitative extent) for a given category; unlike a [bar](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/bar), a waffle is subdivided into cells that allow easier counting, making waffles useful for reading and comparing exact quantities. Plot’s waffle mark is highly configurable: it supports stacking, positive and negative values, rounded corners, partial cells for fractional counts, automatic row or column size determination (with optional override), and more!
+
+[<img src="./img/waffle.png" width="708" alt="a waffle chart of Olympic athletes by weight">](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/waffle)
+
+```js
+Plot.plot({
+  fx: {interval: 10},
+  color: {legend: true},
+  marks: [Plot.waffleY(olympians, Plot.groupZ({y: "count"}, {fill: "sex", sort: "sex", fx: "weight", unit: 10}))]
+})
+```
+
+
+All marks now support GeoJSON data and GeoJSON property shorthand, making it easier to work with GeoJSON. For example, below the data `counties` is a GeoJSON FeatureCollection, and `unemployment` refers to a property on each feature; the **fill** option is thus shorthand for `(d) => d.properties.unemployment`. The [geo mark](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/geo) now also supports the **tip** option (via an implicit [centroid transform](https://observablehq.com/plot/transforms/centroid)), making it easier to use Plot’s [interactive tooltips](https://observablehq.com/plot/interactions/pointer).
+
+[<img src="./img/geo-tip.png" width="708" alt="a choropleth map of unemployment by U.S. county">](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/geo)
+
+```js
+Plot.plot({
+  projection: "albers-usa",
+  color: {
+    type: "quantile",
+    n: 9,
+    scheme: "blues",
+    label: "Unemployment (%)",
+    legend: true
+  },
+  marks: [
+    Plot.geo(counties, {
+      fill: "unemployment",
+      title: (d) => `${d.properties.name} ${d.properties.unemployment}%`,
+      tip: true
+    })
+  ]
+})
+```
+
+All marks now also support column name channel shorthand when using Apache Arrow tables as data, and we’ve added detection of Arrow date-type columns. (Arrow represents temporal data using BigInt rather than Date.)
+
+```js
+Plot.dot(gistemp, {x: "Date", y: "Anomaly"}).plot() // gistemp is an Arrow Table!
+```
+
+The rect-like marks ([rect](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/rect), [bar](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/bar), [cell](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/cell), and [frame](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/frame)) now support individual rounding options for each side (**rx1**, **ry1**, *etc.*) and corner (**rx1y1**, **rx2y1**, *etc.*). This allows you to round just the top side of rects. You can even use a negative corner radius on the bottom side for seamless stacking, as in the histogram of Olympic athletes below.
+
+[<img src="./img/rect-rounded.png" width="708" alt="a histogram of Olympic athletes by weight">](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/rect)
+
+```js
+Plot.plot({
+  color: {legend: true},
+  marks: [
+    Plot.rectY(olympians, Plot.binX({y: "count"}, {x: "weight", fill: "sex", ry2: 4, ry1: -4, clip: "frame"})),
+    Plot.ruleY([0])
+  ]
+})
+```
+
+Plot now respects the projection **domain** when determining the default plot height. Previously, the map below would use a default square aspect ratio for the *conic-conformal* projection regardless of the specified **domain**, but now the map is perfectly sized to fit North Carolina. (Plot also now chooses a smarter default plot height when the ordinal *y* scale domain is empty.)
+
+<img src="./img/geo-nc.png" width="659" alt="an unlabeled map showing the outline and counties of North Carolina">
+
+```js
+Plot.plot({
+  projection: {.
+    type: "conic-conformal",
+    parallels: [34 + 20 / 60, 36 + 10 / 60],
+    rotate: [79, 0],
+    domain: state
+  },
+  marks: [
+    Plot.geo(counties, {strokeOpacity: 0.2}),
+    Plot.geo(state)
+  ]
+})
+```
+
+The [marker options](https://observablehq.com/plot/features/markers) now render as intended on marks with varying aesthetics, such as the spiraling arrows of varying thickness and color below.
+
+<img src="./img/group-marker.png" width="659" alt="several spiraling lines emanate from the center of the image, with rainbow color and increasing thickness, each capped with a pointed arrow at the end">
+
+```js
+Plot.plot({
+  inset: 40,
+  axis: null,
+  marks: [
+    Plot.line(d3.range(400), {
+      x: (i) => i * Math.sin(i / 100 + ((i % 5) * 2 * Math.PI) / 5),
+      y: (i) => i * Math.cos(i / 100 + ((i % 5) * 2 * Math.PI) / 5),
+      z: (i) => i % 5,
+      stroke: (i) => -i,
+      strokeWidth: (i) => i ** 1.1 / 100,
+      markerEnd: "arrow"
+    })
+  ]
+})
+```
+
+This release includes a few more new features, bug fixes, and improvements:
+
+The new **className** [mark option](https://observablehq.com/plot/features/marks#mark-options) specifies an optional `class` attribute for rendered marks, allowing styling of marks via external stylesheets or easier selection via JavaScript; thanks, @RLesser! Plot now reuses `clipPath` elements, when possible, when the **clip** mark option is set to *frame* or *projection*.
+
+The [difference mark](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/difference) now supports a horizontal orientation via [differenceX](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/difference#differenceX), and the [shift transform](https://observablehq.com/plot/transforms/shift) now likewise supports [shiftY](https://observablehq.com/plot/transforms/shift#shiftY). The [Voronoi mark](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/delaunay) is now compatible with the pointer transform: only the pointed Voronoi cell is rendered; the Voronoi mark now also renders as intended with non-exclusive facets (as when using the *exclude* facet mode). The [tip mark](https://observablehq.com/plot/marks/tip) no longer displays channels containing literal color values by default.

As with the [dot mark](./dot.md), the effective radius is controlled by the *r* scale, which is by default a *sqrt* scale such that the area of a point is proportional to its value. And likewise point geometries are by default sorted by descending radius to reduce occlusion, drawing the smallest circles on top. Set the **sort** option to null to use input order instead.

 In addition to the [standard mark options](../features/marks.md#mark-options), the **r** option controls the size of Point and MultiPoint geometries.

When **r** is specified as a number, it is interpreted as a constant radius in pixels; otherwise it is interpreted as a channel and the effective radius is controlled by the *r* scale.
