Hi Magic,
I revised the page on http://code.google.com/p/simile-widgets/wiki/Timeline_GettingStarted several days ago. It no longer includes the line: bandInfos[1].eventPainter.setLayout(bandInfos[0].eventPainter.getLayout()); ... and your ver 2.2.0 file shouldn't include it either. Re: Versions: The MIT server is serving up several versions. See http://static.simile.mit.edu/timeline/ You should be using http://static.simile.mit.edu/timeline/api-2.2.0 If you downloaded the software to your own server then the version is which ever you downloaded. I recommend the trunk version which has a number of great features in it beyond the 2.2.0 features. I need to spend the time to revise it to the new site/example dir layout and then release it as 2.3.0. I'm sorry that I haven't had the time, I'm currently way over committed. I think the other important task is to completely re-write the getting started wiki page. (And test it too.) Re: difference in bundle sizes. I haven't investigated that issue. From your email, it sounds like the newer version is smaller than the older version. I'm not surprised, David H re-wrote major chunks of Timeline based on his experiences with the prior version and on Exhibit. Re-writes and re-factoring typically lead to smaller code bases.

I also have line "bandInfos[1].eventPainter.setLayout(bandInfos [0].eventPainter.getLayout());" in my page because it comes from "How to create Timelines" document. The sample works when my page refer to "simile.mit.edu" but not work when it refer to my local files (v2.2.0) bundle.js from "simile.mit.edu" is 114k but my local timeline- bundle.js is 89k only. Why? What is the version of online Timeline library on "timeline- bundle.js"? Magic On 12月22日, 上午12時34分, Larry Kluger <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Warf, > > Sorry for the less-than-stellar docs.
