Hi Larry: I see you are on top of things as usual. I have identified four files which I have modified to work with my "ordered" painter:
sources.js -- modified to add events to an array in the order in which they are read from the input stream(XML,JSON,SPARQL). timeline.js -- modified to include "ordered" parameter for layout (just like overview) as well as declaration of the eventArray timeline-api.js -- modified to include "ordered-painter.js" when looking up other script files ordered-painter.js -- New painter which loops through the event array to draw tapes/labels. I have tested this new painter on IE7 and FF3. I could not get even the examples to work consistently with Safari. No time to see why. My "test suite" involved an application which generates multiple events (currently 30) spread out over a 3 year period. As soon as my boss clears it, I will send along a screen shot of the result. IMHO it looks pretty cool. I am eager to submit my changes for the next release. Please let me know what to do. I am working on sources that I downloaded as a ZIP file the version is Version 2.2.0 -- September 23, 2008 rev 1589 (from the CHANGES.txt file in the ZIP file) Thanks for all your help. greg On Nov 5, 12:25 pm, LarryK <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I just checked in rev 1661. > > * Improved painting of labels for imprecise instant events.
