"Many new updates within the [arcgis.map](/python/latest/api-reference/arcgis.map.toc.html) module enhance and simplify visualization when using the [`map widget`](/python/latest/api-reference/arcgis.map.toc.html#arcgis.map.Map) in an ArcGIS Notebook. The Python API added support for the [ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript](/javascript/latest/release-notes/) 5.0 release to take advantage of the many drawing improvements. This release focused on providing simplified management for *popups*, *renderers* and *forms* by adding new *popup_manager*, *renderer_manager*, and *form_manager* properties on the map visualization classes. These properties return instances of the [PopupManager](/python/latest/api-reference/arcgis.map.toc.html#arcgis.map.popups.PopupManager), [RendererManager](/python/latest/api-reference/arcgis.map.toc.html#arcgis.map.renderers.RendererManager), and [FormManager](/python/latest/api-reference/arcgis.map.toc.html#arcgis.map.forms.FormManager) classes, respectively. In addition, these properties exist on the new [SubtypeGroupLayer](/python/latest/api-reference/arcgis.map.toc.html#arcgis.map.group_layer.SubtypeGroupLayer) class. These properties and classes provide straightforward access to visualization capabilities for a smoother experience when using maps inside notebooks. The new [define_renderer()`](/python/latest/api-reference/arcgis.map.toc.html#arcgis.map.renderers.RendererManager.define_renderer) was added to further simplify the drawing experience in the map widget. This release also brings the new [check_compatibility()](/python/api-reference/arcgis.map.toc.html#arcgis.map.offline_mapping.OfflineMapAreaManager.check_compatibility) method on the [OfflineMapAreaManager](/python/api-reference/arcgis.map.toc.html#arcgis.map.offline_mapping.OfflineMapAreaManager) to provide a mechanism for determining whether the content of a web map is viable for using in offline maps.\n",
