# 0.12.2 (Sept 2016)

We’re pleased to announce the release of Bokeh 0.12.2! This minor update adds a few “small in footprint, but big in impact” features and several bug fixes including:

- Client-side color mapping support for all glyphs
- New color bar annotation
- Support for loading external resources in custom models - Check out the new LaTeX example at: LaTeX
- Hit-testing support for MultiLine glyphs
- Improved hover tooltip default styling
- Addition of the Brewer qualitative color palettes
- Fix intermittent issues with BokehJS loading in Jupyter Notebooks
- Split of the Bokeh JS API into a stand-alone bundle
- Many small bug fixes

NOTE: the 0.12.x series is the last planned release series before a version 1.0 release. The focus of the 1.0 release will be implementing build automation to enforce API stability, and a very small number of high value features.

## Migration Guide

### Jupyter Notebook output changes

As part of the changes to ensure that the BokehJS client library has loaded before attempting to render plots in the notebook, a new `notebook_handle` argument was added to the `bokeh.io.show` method. When set to `True` (with `output_notebook` enabled), the `show` method will return a handle that can be used with `push_notebook`.

For users who rely on the notebook handles to update plots out of their render order, you’ll have to add `notebook_handle=True` to your `show` invocations like below:

    from bokeh.plotting import figure
    from bokeh.io import output_notebook, push_notebook, show
    output_notebook()
    plot = figure()
    plot.circle([1,2,3], [4,6,5])
    handle = show(plot, notebook_handle=True)
    # Update the plot title in the earlier cell
    plot.title = "New Title"
    push_notebook(handle=handle)

### BokehJS API Changes

In order to shrink the size of the main BokehJS library and reduce pageload times, the Bokeh JS API has been separated into it’s own bokeh-api(.min).js bundle. For users requiring the JS API, it will be necessary to add the new resource to their HTML templates.
