Hi, all,
This is how I solved that issue:
First I knew my desired start and end dates ahead of time so I passed
the startDate and endDate values within the onLoad command, such as:
function onLoad(bgnDate,endDate) { . . .
Then I assigned them into the zones array, such as:
var mainzones = [
{ start: bgnDate, // alternatively you could hard code
your dates here new Date(1900,1,1)
end: endDate, // alternatively you could hard code
your dates here new Date(1940,1,1)
magnify: 1,
unit: mainlabelunit,
multiple: 1
}
];
Per the comment above, instead of passing in the dates you could
define them directly within the mainzones array.
Then I passed mainzones into the array of bands through the
createBandsInfo function, such as:
var bandArray = Timeline.createBandInfo({
detailed: true,
intervalUnit: mainlabelunit,
zones: mainzones, // passed in
here
eventSource: eventsource,
date: d,
. . ..
Hope this helps ..
