Thanks Adrian.
Unfortunately my java scripting knowledge is poor to non-existant so I
guess I was looking for something a little more specific. Lazy I know
but I guess I was hoping that someone else had attempted this and had
a working example.
So I attempted what you suggested but wasn't sure what to put in the
brackets of Timeline.GregorianDateLabeller.apply()
plus I don't know what kind of formatting if wants where you suggested
"your custom formatted date". I tried a few things and always ended
up with a blank timeline.
Anyone out there have any more ideas?
Cheers.
Laura
