Re: [Simile-Widgets] bubble title
Hi Luis, All, thanks reply. I am not sure on how to post an example. What I wish is the following: say I have, for each event to be shown, a short and a long title. I wish to display the short title in the timeline, the long one in the corresponding bubble (on the top line). How do I do? More in general, I am not sure on how to customize the bubble. Is there a tutorial/wiki? thanks mario On Saturday, 18 March 2017 07:12:21 UTC+1, Luis Miguel Morillas wrote: > > Send an example, please.

[Simile-Widgets] Unable to trigger info bubble
Hi developers! I am picking up an already started project with Simile Timeline v2.3. The timeline uses duration events (tapes) but they do not show a info bubble when clicked. I have but breakpoints in the following places: Timeline.OriginalEventPainter.prototype._showBubble Timeline.OriginalEventPainter.prototype.showBubble Timeline.OriginalEventPainter.prototype._onClickDurationEvent But none of these are triggered. My events are at the highest z-index so the click event should not be blocked. *Do I need to enable info bubbles somewhere?* Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SIMILE Widgets" group.

[Simile-Widgets] Formatting the bubble in Timeline
I would like to format the bubble using a table layout.
(I am using Timeline not Exhibit.)
I can do this by generating XML data looking like this:
<style> h1, h4 {
color: red;
} </style>
<h1> Academy Awards - 1939 </h1 >
<table border="1" >
<tr > <td > Best Film: </td >
<td > <h4> Gone With the Wind
</h4 > </td > </tr >
<tr > <td > Best Actor: </td >
<td > <h4> Robert Donat </h4
></td > </tr >
<tr > <td > Best Actress: </td >
<td > <h4> Vivien Leigh </h4 >
</td > </tr >
</table >
<br /> <br /> <br>OSCAR<br /><br /> <a
href=" https://www.youtube.com/embed/v/h2oX0zQA67U " target =
" _blank ">See it on You Tube</a>
This is obviously cumbersome, difficult to read etc.
I believe I should be able to use CSS and a class statement to replace all
that HTML stuff. Is this right and can someone point me to a description of
"How"?
You can see where this used here:

Re: [Simile-Widgets] Ex3 scripted - How can I suppress double info bubble?
Andrew, we haven't made any changes to timeline that should change this
behavior. What *have* changed, which I think may be the problem, is the
way we load timeline. It now gets loaded a different way that probably
makes it load *later*. So I suspect your redefition is now happening
*before* timeline gets loaded, so the original definition comes in later
and overwrites yours.
I suggets you try attaching your function redefinition to an event that
gets triggered late in the initializations, after extensions have been
loaded. I'd start by trying the exhibitConfigured event. See

[Simile-Widgets] Displaying bubble inside a Iframe
Hello, I use to display my exhibit webpage in a IFrame inside Sharepoint. In my initial view, I make a reference to a sub-lens using . When clicking on this link, a bubble is displayed with much more informations. As I'm inside a Iframe, my problem is that the bubble may not be entirely displayed because the bubble size is calculated with "docHeight = $(window).height();" from jquery.simile.bubble.js. The bubble top may be hidden by the HTML parent. I wonder if someone already faces this problem and if a workaround exists?

The problem is, when clicking on an event bubble, bubble

that any link on the bubble doesn't lead to anywhere, because bubble
disappears before link works.
-For those encounter the same problem, here is my solution. -
In the simile-ajax-bundle.js, just remove inside the
_onBodyMouseDown
function so that the bubble can only be closed by clicking click
button or outside of bubble.
SimileAjax.WindowManager._onBodyMouseDown = function(B, A, C) {

[Simile-Widgets] Re: Exhibit map-view: formatting bubble when having multiple items at the same location
I would be interested in a solution to this as well. I've seen a solution where just the ID is displayed (see Presidents Example), however this may not be feasible for all datasets as duplicate Names may occur. I am currently relying on the drupal version of exhibit which uses a number as the ID. This number is consequently displayed in the bubble appearing when clicking on a cluster. Is there any way to change this behavior? Possibly via an expression? Am Montag, 17.

Re: [Simile-Widgets] How to cut-off time in timeline-event-bubble-time
The Timeline default is to use Timeline.GregorianDateLabeller.labelPrecise.
The painter calls showBubble when you click an event.
This calls fillInfoBubble on the event.
This calls fillTime on the event, which is what calls labelPrecise.
To change this, make your own copy of the labelPrecise function and load it
after you load Timeline. (I usually recommend against modifying the timeline
source for these kinds of changes, and certainly don't try to make the edits in
the timeline bundle file. Much better to load a clean copy of timeline and
apply your own patches afterwards.)
I've been using Steven Levithan's Date Format.js
http://stevenlevithan.com/assets/misc/date.format.js
This provides most common date formats:
dateFormat.masks = {
"default": "ddd mmm dd HH:MM:ss",
shortDate: "m/d/yy",
mediumDate: "mmm d, ",
longDate: " d, ",
fullDate: ", d, ",
shortTime: "h:MM TT",
mediumTime: "h:MM:ss TT",
longTime: "h:MM:ss TT Z",
isoDate:"-mm-dd",
isoTime:"HH:MM:ss",
isoDateTime:"-mm-dd'T'HH:MM:ss",
isoUtcDateTime: "UTC:-mm-dd'T'HH:MM:ss'Z'"
};
So using date.format.js and a custom labelPrecise:
Timeline.GregorianDateLabeller.prototype.labelPrecise = function(date) {
return SimileAjax.DateTime.removeTimeZoneOffset(
date,
this._timeZone //+ (new Date().getTimezoneOffset() / 60)
).format("fullDate");
};
gives: Wednesday, December 31, 1962
.format("shortDate") gives "12/31/62"

Re: [Simile-Widgets] Define target in bubble link
Pascal, I'm not certain exactly what you're asking for. This Exhibit:

opens a new tab when you click "click for video" in a popup bubble.

[Simile-Widgets] Event bubble disappears when click on it at IE
I have been struggling for 5 hours to this problem and find a solution
myself.
The problem is, when clicking on an event bubble, bubble disappears so
that any link on the bubble doesn't lead to anywhere, because bubble
disappears before link works.
-For those encounter the same problem, here is my solution. -
In the simile-ajax-bundle.js, just remove inside the _onBodyMouseDown
function so that the bubble can only be closed by clicking click
button or outside of bubble.
SimileAjax.WindowManager._onBodyMouseDown = function(B, A, C) {
// if (!("eventPhase" in A) || A.eventPhase == A.BUBBLING_PHASE) {
// SimileAjax.WindowManager.cancelPopups(A);
// }
};
Note that, don't remove whole method and be sure that you are using
your local copy of simile-ajax-bundle.js not the one at
http://static.simile.mit.edu.
Good luck

Re: [Simile-Widgets] Info Bubble.
I see now. My answer focused more on customizing the text/display of the info
bubble.
The Discuss link in the bubble comes from the fillWikiInfo method, it is not
part of the theme.
Looking at the code, we see:
if (this._wikiURL == null || this._wikiSection == null) {
return; // EARLY RETURN
}
The wikiURL comes from the XML file used, in the document attributes:
http://simile.mit.edu/shelf/";
wiki-section="Simile JFK Timeline"
>
If these are left out of the XML (or JSON), then there will be no Discuss link
shown.
The campaignEvents.xml file does not include these attributes, so there is no
wiki Discuss link shown.

The following timeline dosent have the "Discuss" link in the bubble. Is there a

Re: [Simile-Widgets] Info Bubble.
You'll want too customize the fillInfoBubble() method of the Event object.
Look in /webapp/api/scripts/sources.js, where
Timeline.DefaultEventSource.Event.prototype is defined.
One of the member methods is a function called fillInfoBubble. This is what
builds the content that goes in the info bubble.
It calls some helper functions to handle styling/formatting.
The "[Discuss]" link comes from the fillWikiInfo method which fills in the wiki
info for events.
The date in the info bubble comes from the fillTime method.
You can easily override the info bubble behavior and customize it by including
your own fillInfoBubble method.
In your script, after the timeline scripts have been loaded, add:
Timeline.DefaultEventSource.Event.prototype.fillInfoBubble = function(elmt,
theme, labeller) {
// define your custom infoBubble code here...
}
For example, you could override the fillWikiInfo method to leave off the
[Discuss] link, or leave off the image.
Your bubble border images aren't showing up because the relative path to the
images is incorrect. Look at where the graphics.css stylesheet is coming from,
and then check that there is an images directory one level above it. That's
where it is expecting to find all the bubble border images.

[Simile-Widgets] HELP PLEASE - Error in bubble size, sending me crazy,
Hello all,
I've set up Smilie Timeline to record a town's history over the last 250
years or so, and its got 1,500 entries in it. Not sure if that is large, but
it ltook a hell of a time to get the data in the XML file. Anyway, I got a
problem with scroll bars showing up when I get images in bubbles. I can see
that quite a few people have had the same issues. I tried to do a pre-featch
on the images, but it takes so long because it tries to pre-featch ALL the
images :o(
Next, I tried to set the default size of the bubble large enough to hold the
image. The size has changed, but I still get the scroll bars on the bubble
for the first time I view, but ok on the second view because it is cached.
In my themes.js files, I got the following
bubble: {
width: 500, // px
height: 500, // px
HELP, planning on going live with the project very soon, and I'm hitting my
head against a brick wall. I set it up on 2.3 to start with, then went back
to 2.1, but still got the same error.
Please check it out at:

Re: [Simile-Widgets] Re: Hiding the event bubble
here's such a student history timeline: http://fc.gannacademy.org/gannopedia/jhistory/jhexhibit.html If you're really talking about collaborative editing, you might want to consider using wibit: http://projects.csail.mit.edu/wibit/ you can use an wibit installation to hold the entire exhibit, or just to manage the data and export it for use in a "real" exhibit (http://projects.csail.mit.edu/wibit/wiki/index.php?title=Making_exhibits_from_data_of_Semantic_MediaWikis) On 12/30/2010 2:04 PM, Jon Crump wrote: On Wed, Dec 29, 2010 at 6:40 PM, Atul wrote: Yescalling SimileAjax.WIndowManager.cancelPopups() gets rid of the event bubble!

I tried generating a click event on other part of my page using two
options (here I am using 'elementId' as a place holder ID for
illustration purpose):
1) document.getElementById("elementId").onclick() - this gives me an
error saying onclick is not a function
2) jQuery's trigger('click') method on $("#elementId") - this doesn't
give any error but doesn't hide the bubble either
Can anyone suggest a way to generate a click on some html element? I

When I use the built in translation by adding the parameter forceLocale to the reference [api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/ exhibit-api.js?forceLocale=se] the months of the bands are translated, but not the date and time inside the bubbles.

Re: [Simile-Widgets] Re: link from external site to exhibit, pass URL parameter, open corresponding bubble
Well, the functionality is there, as you can see from this example: http://simile-widgets.org/exhibit/examples/presidents/presidents.html if you click on a president in the timeline, it'll scroll the map and open the corresponding bubble.

Re: [Simile-Widgets] link from external site to exhibit, pass URL parameter, open corresponding bubble
Well, you can do this: http://simile-widgets.org/exhibit/examples/presidents/presidents.html#George%20Washington which does open up the detail view for the particular item; however, I don't think it will open the bubble on the map. the problem is that the id reference is interpreted before exhibit knows which view is active. You can see how this is done by looking at the showFocusDialogOnItem in the last bit of code in the configureFromDOM method found in http://code.google.com/p/simile-widgets/source/browse/exhibit/trunk/src/webapp/api/scripts/exhibit.js On 12/3/2010 2:02 PM, mkhines wrote: Is this possible?

Re: [Simile-Widgets] Re: Timeline: hacking the bubble
Nigel, Thanks, I did solve my problem. I had, by trial and error, to discover what you so correctly point out. In generating the html to insert into the bubble's description div, I had already calculated the maximum height for what I wanted, I merely had to apply that to the _containing_ div: no need to hack the bubble at all!

The correct behaviour for an HTML div with a defined height but no content is. I believe, to be rendered with no height. That would mean testing for its actual rendered height would return 0. A non-breaking space HTML entity ( ) inside the empty div will cause it to render at its defined height.

[Simile-Widgets] Timeline: hacking the bubble
here's a puzzle for you javascript wizards out there. As I understand it, the timeline software calculates the size of a popup bubble in SimileAjax.Graphics.createBubbleForContentAndPoint. It first generates the div for the bubble offscreen, and then in a window.setTimeout function, it measures the size of the resulting div by getting the div's srollHeight, then uses createBubbleForContentAndPoint again to create the bubble with the right dimensions at the point on the timeline where it's called for. This gives it time for the contents of the bubble to be rendered offscreen so that the correct height can be determined. This is pretty damned clever, but I'm puzzled by this: If the description div in the body of my bubble contains an image, the resulting bubble honors the dimensions of the image and opens a bubble of the correct height to contain it; however, if the bubble contains a div with a declared height and width, those dimensions are ignored unless the div in question actually has content. Can anyone suggest how I might compel createBubbleForContentAndPoint to honor the declared dimensions of the divs within the bubble content such that the bubble is opened with the cumulative heights of the contained elements, even if that means including whitespace?

[Simile-Widgets] Problems with bubble display with multiple timelines
I'm working on an interactive history of the University of Washington using Timeline. Thus far, it's been great. Check out our current beta version: http://www.washington.edu/alumni/timeline/index.html We're doing something a little different than most of the uses of Timeline that I've seen. We spent quite a bit of time hacking the way Timeline displayes in order to provide a streamlined, quality experience. Anyway, my question (well, a couple really). I'm working on a version of the Timline that will allow our grads to add themselves. I'm having some problems with the bubble display. In IE the bubbles don't display at all for the 2nd timeline. In other browsers, it displays, but always in the upper left side of the timeline rather than near the event as it should (and does in the main top timeline). Here the test version: http://www.washington.edu/alumni/timeline/index-double.html On the lower timeline, try scrolling to 1960 to see a few entries. I'm guessing it's some problem with our javascript (I'm no js expert). Any idea what's going wrong? Also, we're hoping lots of alumni to add their own entries. If we're successful, displaying all those points will be tricky. Right now, about 5 entries per year fills up the entire vertical space. I tried using the compact event painter to overlap them, but for some reason, it strips the classname attribute that we were using to style. Did I miss something or is it intentionally stripped? Any other thoughts on how best to display a bunch of entries? I was thinking limiting to just icons w/o any label to save space. You'd see their name if you hovered over or clicked. Thanks in advance for any help. And apologies for the hacked up version of timeline we're using! mark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SIMILE Widgets" group.

[Simile-Widgets] Exhibit - Custom Bubble Position (thickbox style)?
Hi All,
Some background: I am creating a custom Exhibit data bubble using this
script:
function showItem(elmt) {
var itemID = Exhibit.getAttribute(elmt, "itemID");
Exhibit.UI.showItemInPopup(itemID, elmt, exhibit.getUIContext());
}
and this link in the viewpanel:
When a data bubble is created in Exhibit, it's CSS position is automatically
added to the generated bubble DIV container - eg:
This positions the bubble directly above the link that generated it.
How can I modify/control the automatically generated "left" and "top" style?
I am wanting to achieve a full page height and width bubble (using css) -
one that floats over the rest of the page (thickbox style). I am getting
there with my CSS, but if there is a way to control the automatic style
rules it would make it much easier. Any help/insight is appreciated.
Regards,
Jon

[Simile-Widgets] Re: Changing date format in bubble
Hi Tristan, If you're using the Timeline extension for Exhibit, which I do, then you can create a custom lens. (Guessing that you're probably describing the default lens.) The custom lens can then be made to show any of the data in the XML/JSON record in any format you so desire. For more details look on the Wiki for the 'lens' documentation. You can also take a look at one of my examples at: www.thisbeautifulgame.com (Look at the source for the page and search for 'tournament-lens'.

Thanks Michael.
I tried what you suggested, but I must be doing something wrong as it
isn't working.
I made my own version of the bubble images. All I did was simply
negate the color scheme (to high contrast black, cf., the default high
contrast white). I made no changes to geometry/size.
I copied and modified my own copies of the 2 css files you described
updating the paths for the images to point to my modified png files.
I updated the HTML in the head section to load the modified CSS files
after the timeline code has been loaded

Unfortunately it is behaving has if I'm made no changes at all.
You'll find the timeline here (if that helps):

Re: [Simile-Widgets] Re: Timeline bubble background color modification
Motobojo,
The references to the images themselves are in a stylesheet file
/timeline/src/ajax/api/styles/graphics.css (and in graphics-ie6.css which
includes the filters to make the transparency work correctly in IE). You won't
need to host your own copy of the Timeline src, just your own images and CSS.
To use your own bubble background image, you need to make replacement images
for each part of the bubble (sides, corners, top, bottom, and arrows). Give
these new names that make sense to you and put them in your stylesheet image
directory, e.g. "myImages".
Then you need to make two new css files (call them "myGraphics.css" and
"myGraphics-ie6.css") and change all the references to the bubble images from
the "images" directory to your "myImages" directory. If your bubble is
differently sized, you will have to adjust the size and positioning as well.
When your HTML loads, have it load your stylesheet. You must load it *after*
Timeline has loaded graphics.css.
The javascript object SimileAjax.Graphics.bubbleConfig contains css classnames
and image metrics used by the code to figure out how big the bubble is. You
might need to change the values for borderGraphicSize,
arrowGraphicTargetOffset, arrowGraphicLength, arrowGraphicWidth and
extraPadding if your bubble is differently sized or shaped. If all you do is
change the background color of the existing Simile-Widgets bubble, then you
shouldn't need to do this.
Just set this object in your code before you create the timeline. To use images
with a wider graphic for the border, say 70px instead of 50px, just add:
SimileAjax.Graphics.bubbleConfig = {
borderGraphicSize: 70
};
It's not a trivial change, but should all be doable with your own images, CSS
and maybe a snippet of Javascript.

Re: [Simile-Widgets] Timeline bubble background color modification
The bubbles are made from several images. See timeline/src/webapp/api/images - there are a dozen images that make up the parts of a bubble. The background color for the bubble is part of the image, so if you want bubbles with different background colors, you'll need to make new images. --Mike On May 28, 2010, at 4:04 PM, motobojo wrote: > Is there a way to way to change the color of the bubble background > color for Timeline? > > I have discovered many means of changing the background color for the > various bits of text included in the bubble, but not the bubble fill/ > background color itself. > > My apologies if this is documented somewhere and I just missed it.

[Simile-Widgets] Timeline bubble background color modification

Re: [Simile-Widgets] Re: Have First Bubble Show Automatically onload
You don't need to modify anything in the source files for Timeline.
Suppose you have a simple timeline and you are populating it with JSON (or XML)
data that is fetched via ajax. Timeline's loadJSON function takes a callback
that is executed when the data has been returned. For example:
var eventSource = new Timeline.DefaultEventSource();
var bandInfos = [ Timeline.CreateBandInfo({ }), etc.]
var tl = Timeline.create(document.getElementById("timelinediv",bandInfos);
tl.loadJSON("myevents.json", function(data, url) {
eventSource.loadJSON(data,url);
showFirstBubble(tl);
});
This will not execute showFirstBubble until after you have loaded your event
data into the eventSource.
You can define showFirstBubble wherever you like, e.g. in your own page
[Simile-Widgets] Re: Have First Bubble Show Automatically onload
Upon a lot of testing it seems that timeline-bundle.js is being loaded
but not actually used.
simile-ajax-bundle.js is what is building it all.
Any idea how to use that file to get the first bubble to popup?
Thanks so much for the help so far!

[Simile-Widgets] Re: Have First Bubble Show Automatically onload
Okay, it seems I was looking at the wrong set of files.
Looking at the correct ones I have implemented this.
Timeline.loadJSON=function(url,f) {
showFirstBubble();
var fError=function(statusText,status,xmlhttp) {
alert("Failed to load json data from "+url+"\n"+statusText);
};
var fDone=function(xmlhttp) {
f(eval("("+xmlhttp.responseText+")"),url);
};
SimileAjax.XmlHttp.get(url,fError,fDone);
};
function showFirstBubble(tl) {
var band = tl.getBand(0);
var firstEvent =
band.getEventSource().getAllEventIterator().next();
band.setCenterVisibleDate(firstEvent.getStart());
band.getEventPainter().showBubble(firstEvent);
}
But that doesn't seem to make a difference.
Is there something I am missing here?
I am editing timeline-bundle.js as that is what is being called.

[Simile-Widgets] Re: Have First Bubble Show Automatically onload
Mike and Jon,
Thank you for the pieces of code, I would like to try these out, but
forgive my ignorance when I ask which file it is you are modifying and
where in that file?
I searched all of the files for the "loadJSON" and in timeline.js
there is a line "Sources[0].loadJSON(args.events, url);" Would it be
somewhere around that?
This is a single band timeline inside of Drupal. You can view what I
have so far at http://bit.ly/9RIVjj just needing to get that first
bubble to popup.
If you could let me know where to add either one of your functions I
would appreciate! Thank you very much!

Here's how to get Timeline to automatically show the bubble for the first event
when the Timeline loads:
Once you are done loading your events, you can tell Timeline to show the bubble
for the first event. If you are loading events via ajax, you'll have to wait
for the XHR to return and for Timeline to process the events. You can add this
function to your loadJSON callback.
Let's assume you have a simple timeline with one band:
function showFirstBubble(tl) {
var band = tl.getBand(0);
var firstEvent = band.getEventSource().getAllEventIterator().next();
band.setCenterVisibleDate(firstEvent.getStart());
band.getEventPainter().showBubble(firstEvent);
}
This will find the first event, scroll the timeline to it and show the bubble.
If you initialize your timeline to another date, then you'll need to decide
which event you want to be "first". For example, in the JFK Timeline, the first
event in the dataset is the Bay of Pigs Invasion, but the Timeline is
initialized at the time of JFK's death.
Let me know if this works for you.

[Simile-Widgets] Re: Have First Bubble Show Automatically onload
Kyle,
There's probably a better way, but this works:
in onLoad, when you call the load function, you can use the callback
to
execute a function showLatestBubble thus:
tl.loadJSON("sourcedata.js", function(json, url)
{eventSource.loadJSON(json, url); showLatestBubble()});
Then after the onLoad function define:
function showLatestBubble(){
evt_count = tl.getBand(0).getEventSource().getCount();
tl.getBand(0).showBubbleForEvent('e' + evt_count);
}
I wanted to be able to do this myself, so I worked something out;
however,
my js skills aren't much, so if anybody has critiques or suggestions
on
this method, I hope you'll share them with us.
The timeline api makes all sorts of things possible, but much depends
upon
being able to identify an eventID. Is there a way to derive the ID of
an
event from its other properties? Is there a simple way, for example,
to
get the eventID knowing only the event's startDate? Or, search the
EventSource for an event having a user-defined property and get that
event's ID?

[Simile-Widgets] Re: Have Bubble Pop Down instead of up
After MUCH anguish and digging and research and toying and playing and hacking I found the answer and it's so much easier than i expected. In hopes that no one has the deal with the same pains I did I found this solution. In original-painter.js inside of timeline_js/scripts around line 660 is the line SimileAjax.Graphics.createBubbleForContentAndPoint(div, x, y, themeBubble.width, null, themeBubble.maxHeight); Change the null to a string "top" "bottom" "left" "right" This is where the bubble of pop up!

[Simile-Widgets] Have Bubble Pop Down instead of up
I am looking to increase the height of my timeline and have all of the dates be flush against the top. I however would like for the information bubble to pop down instead of above the date dot. You can view an image of what I am trying to accomplish at http://grab.by/1Tgw If you have any insight on what I need to be looking for to modify this, any information is helpful. Where can I change the height? Where can I set the bubble to pop down instead of up? Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SIMILE Widgets" group.

[Simile-Widgets] Events at the border cause bubble to be displaced
Hi, I am facing a peculiar display issue with the event bubble. If a user clicks on the event text which is near the border of the timeline the event bubble appears displaced. Take a look at this screenshot: http://i49.tinypic.com/bgdahc.jpg This happens across browsers. I am trying to figure out how to avoid this. It would be awesome if anyone has already solved this or could help me solve this issue. Cheers!

It sure would be nice if all Simile Widgets had coincident releases, with the latest stable version of Exhibit pointing to the latest stable versions of the others (Timeline, Timeplot, Painter, possibly eventually Runway.) I don't have a feel for the independence or development process for each project. Can this be done? You can easily see some confusion if not. Does it make sense to have a wiki page explaining the social development process? Anybody want to take a stab at it? Regarding the documentation wiki, should we be documenting the latest stable or trunk versions? For now, I would recommend documenting the latest trunk versions (as many changes have already been made and announced) and move to stable when released. For future versions, we'll need to have some disclaimers which version the docs pertain to. Just a thought...

Is there a separate > "branch" for 2.3.1 to allow the same fixes to be applied both to trunk > timeline and Exhibit's? No, there's no such branch. However, when you use Exhibit, you can explicitly include Timeline before including Exhibit, and Exhibit won't try to include Timeline again. That way, you can decide which version of Timeline to use. Of course, you have to be sure they are compatible. > Seems like it would be almost as much work to add a 2.3.2 timeline > containing the patches and point exhibit at that, as it would to just > upgrade exhibit to use the (already existing) "trunk" timeline.

Exhibit shouldn't point to trunk Timeline, as then Exhibit would break when trunk Timeline is in the midst of development. The process for releasing Timeline involves - running ant in the timeline directory to generate bundle files - updating RELEASE_NOTES.txt and CHANGES.txt in the timeline directory - testing and committing timeline - within the hour, trunk.simile-widgets.org/timeline/ should get updated with the trunk version. test it, too. - tagging timeline (into timeline/tags) - svn co the api-site project - updating svn:externals in the timeline directory to link to the new tag - I think we have a cron job that should update api.simile-widgets.org within the hour. If not, log onto simile-widgets.org and update it manually. David --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SIMILE Widgets" group.

Re: Handle only left click for displaying event-bubble
Hi !
I have the wish/problem, but don't understand the code.
I inserted it into my timeline app, but I am getting script errors.
I put it after my initialization code and after loading the data.
More above your code snippet, I have also this:
bandInfos[1].eventPainter.Layout = bandInfos[0].eventPainter.Layout;
Is this a "OriginalEventPainter" and do I have to apply your
codesample
possibly like this:
bandinfos
[1].OriginalEventPainter.prototype._onClickDurationEventWithRightClick
= Timeline.OriginalEventPainter.prototype._onClickDurationEvent;
Some help would be great!!

Exhibit map-view: formatting bubble when having multiple items at the same location
Hi, I'm searching for a way to format the map bubble when there is more than 1 item at the same location. To clarify: - if there are - let's say - 3 items, all located in Los Angeles. When one clicks the map marker (displaying just a '3') one will get a bubble revealing the 3 items' titles and nothing else. Now I would like to add some information to that specific bubble. How can I do that? Thanks in advance, steff --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SIMILE Widgets" group.
