Nice with the hover titles! I've been meaning to implement or request an ex:markerTitle=".label" attribute for Map and Scatter Plot views too, but the new world order sort of got in the way. For Scatter Plot, it's trivial, and for Google Maps, it's actually trivial too, nowadays: http://googlemapsapi.blogspot.com/2007/03/march-marker-madness-gmarkeroptions.html > CMU, Microsoft Research, and Yahoo cover the most ground. It would be really nice if it was easier to come to that conclusion. Like being able to sort a facet list on number of subjects, facet value, and maybe backwards, like TabularView. :-) Or, for some data sets, to be able to list a very specific sort order, like "Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday" (pick your preferred Sunday spot on your own :-). -- / Johan Sundström, http://ecmanaut.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ General mailing list [email protected] http://simile.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/general
