ah! ok, now I get it. I was looking at the wrong thing :-) Yes, I can reproduce the problem of the data being shown from the next datapoint instead of the previous one (I didn't encounter this because I always had a denser time series). I'll add this to the todo list. As for "no data shows for the years starting 6/1/2006", what is shown is actually the correct behavior: if you don't specify a min/max range for your time geometry, timeplot will automatically stretch itself so that the x=0 will have the earliest time and x = canvas.width will have the latest time (timeplot doesn't know that you expect your datapoint to stretch for an entire year) One way to get the entire year to show, is to forcefully pass 'max: "2007-06-01"' as a parameter in your time geometry... but unfortunately, that requires you to change the timeplot code every year, which is a bummer. An alternative is to add a dummy data point at 6/1/2007 with the same data as 6/1/2006 but that might be misleading. Yet again, you can have a timeline dataset with a series of events that stretches for the entire school year (you can have periods over timeplot as well and timeplot will consider the latest date of the period as its latest time).
