It was actually mostly some SVG jogging I happened to do in an Exhibit context, but yeah, if it's popular and people like it we might want to add the feature properly in Exhibit too. (Lesson learned: it's steadily getting less painful to work with SVG in modern browsers, or at least Firefox. The situation was substantially worse a year ago.) > Facets can be extended further to include slider controls, date picker, > maps,... or even thumbnails of visual features to select. All very appetizing proposals. I've been toying with the thought of beefing up a Timeline into an interactable widget of some sort to pick time spans rather than just browse data through, but it would probably take more work than I have a time slice for at the moment. Which would be quite fine if only I manage to get to need something like that for work purposes at some time. :-) -- / Johan Sundström, http://ecmanaut.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ General mailing list [email protected] http://simile.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/general
