Aaron,
CSS won't do this since each label is absolute-positioned to the left of
the event tape. You would need to fix the "painter" you use to position
it to the right. For example, if you're using the "original painter",
look in
http://api.simile-widgets.org/timeline/2.3.1/scripts/original-painter.js
Find
Timeline.OriginalEventPainter.prototype.paintPreciseDurationEvent
You need to override this function by making a copy of it after
including exhibit-api.js and then modifying it. You can see how
labelLeft and labelRight are calculated. Just modify them appropriately.
