US Counties get a full visual working-over with tandemized maps and charts (X = Average Age, Y = Average Income, and the counties are colored by population density).

Also, around second 45 of the video, you can see that I can type in specific values directly into the filter slider. This is so nice (sometimes totally essential) when your slider covers a very wide range and moving it even one pixel does not provide the precision you need. An insightful client of ours, Karl-Friedrich Franz of Novartis, proposed this feature -which has handily found its way into several components of the product.
Oh, one more thing. You'll notice each axis of the scatterplot has tiny tics indicating that dimension's frequency and providing a nice visual reference of distribution right there at the edge.
