  • $\begingroup$ Thanks for adding this detailed description, I really hoped someone will do this! Adding to the caveat: I remember crashing the explorer many times by simply fiddling with the options/directives so I assume it is not part of the official canon because of these issues. Hopefully it will be integrated in version 9. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 26, 2012 at 9:39

    $\begingroup$ When I try this in version 9, the plot button and the graphics button don't work ("Experimental`Explore::notmpl: Plot type exploration of Null is not currently supported." for both), ParametricPlot returns a window but also an error. And this is without even trying any of the features, this is just from clicking the buttons. $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 3, 2013 at 8:57
  • $\begingroup$ @Anon Ah well, that's why it's in the Experimental` context... no guarantees, whatsoever :) I don't think it was broken deliberately; version 9 had a lot of changes to the front end and the low level box stuff, so I think it's just a matter of not updating them because it's low priority. Maybe it might be fixed (or not) in 9.0.4 $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 3, 2013 at 14:13

    $\begingroup$ @rm-rf slightly less broken in v10 $\endgroup$ Commented Aug 31, 2014 at 13:41
  • $\begingroup$ Does this support simply manipulating existing Graphics[] objects? $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 1, 2020 at 10:19
