I would like to use the motion chart to visualize data from scientific experiments where data is sampled at various timepoints X minutes from the beginning of the experiment. The actual clock time is not important; rather, I'd like to show time points as numbers: 1, 100, 300, etc. Sometimes timepoints are negative numbers.
It looks like the motion chart requires that the time column be some sort of date (even if it is not a Javascript Date object). If I just use a number, such as 10, the chart displays the starting time as 1910 (interestingly, if I set the number to 0010, the initial starting time becomes 1908). I understand that the visualization may require that the time column be some sort of date, so that it can calculate the intervals between dates. But is there some way that the values displayed could be not actual dates but simply numbers? And if negative numbers could be supported as well? It seems that this is supported in the widget version of the Motion Chart. You can have plain old numbers in your google spreadsheet and the widget will show a number as the starting time (without trying to convert it to a four-digit year).
