Hi Scott,
I'm glad you've solved the other problems.

You are at the right place. Have you tried changing both div.style.width
and div.style.borderLeft?
(As a related note, if you include timeline-api.js as follows
<script src=".... /timeline-api.js?bundle=false"></script>
then timeline-api.js will load separate .js and .css files instead of
bundle.js and bundle.css. And running ant in the timeline directory
would do the bundling.)

As you might have guessed, setupFilterHighlightControls isn't really a
part of the API. It was an after thought. And we now have a related
project called Exhibit that supports list-based filtering:

Let us know if it's good enough for what you need.
