Hello All, I'm curious as to whether or not someone can tell me how to go about reversing the direction of the date display in the dinosaur timeline.
I'm attempting to use the timeline in a non-traditional way. I've been tasked with creating a visualization of changes in handwriting in a manuscript. The manuscript would be passed around from person to person, each making notes and adding annotations to the text. This means that my basic unit of measurement is the page rather than a specific time. The dinosaur example works incredibly well for me because it has placed it's units in millions of years ago. This relates well to the concept of a page with one million years equalling one page. I can also use the decimal notation to indicate placement within a page (ie there is an annotation 3/4 of the way down page 34). My problem is that the geochrono units count down rather than up and I'm not familiar enough with the code base to know what I have to do to modify the direction. I would really appreciate a bit of guidance as I've spent a couple hours wading through the js to no avail. Alternatively, if you could point me to an example that more closely matches what I'm attempting to do then I would be very much indebted. Thanks for your time.
