Jan: for the map itself a single slider is definitely the easiest/clearest.
For displaying events on it, a single slider is too limited, though you
could get the same functionality with range queries. ("look for events that
happened between 1500 and 1600, display them on a 1555 map")Cheers, Micru On Tue, May 13, 2014 at 11:19 PM, Jan Ainali <[email protected]>wrote: > What I would like is not primarily a range slider (although there might be > cases where that might be interesting).
