Hi Yuri, Yes, your description makes sense. I'm sorry that I don't have expertise on the issue to help you further.
My suggestion is that you post a live version (not a jpg) of your Timeline page, and then ask the people on stackoverflow.com for help. If your data is private, then just use some test data.

From what I understand, and it is quite possible that I am missing something very basic here, the the timeline scrollbar kicks in if the number of events is to large for the DIV container of a predefined height to handle. In other words, the band is of the fixed height and if you have the number of events above a certain threshold it will increase and the scrollbar will be painted. That does not work for me. I have 10 synchronized bands of the fixed height. And the size of the container allows me to show only the first 3 initially. I need to be able to scroll down to see other 7 even in the case when there are no events at all.
