Very cool David,
I really need to look for a good use for that, it is seriously pretty.
I've hacked a "Tape" painter together by overriding a couple of prototypes
on the Original Painter, but I imagine an official "Tape" painter could be
made...
The funtions I overrode after loading the simile timeline api were:
Timeline.OriginalEventPainter.prototype.paintPreciseDurationEvent =
function(evt, metrics, theme, highlightIndex) {
:
var labelTop = Math.round(
metrics.trackOffset + track * metrics.trackIncrement );
// metrics.trackOffset + track * metrics.trackIncrement +
theme.event.tape.height);
:
}
and
Timeline.OriginalEventPainter.prototype.paint = function() {
:
var trackHeight = Math.max(eventTheme.track.height,
eventTheme.tape.height);
// var trackHeight = Math.max(eventTheme.track.height,
eventTheme.tape.height +
// this._frc.getLineHeight());
:
}
I may have missed something but I'm getting a nice merged tape/label event
view now.
Would it be worth collecting any more custom painters alive in the wild and
contributing them into the source base?
I'd certainly be happy to contribute my 2 lines in a new TapePainter but I
think I only have read access to the CVS.
Cheers,
Scott
