Hi All !
In my case - I use additional "custom properties" per event - the
shown methods did'nt work [may be my fault], but declaring the event
like this:
var json = {
'dateTimeFormat': 'iso8601',
'events':
[
{ 'id': '17', 'start': ......,
'myCustomClass': '1' }
]
};
and then:
tlEventSource.loadJSON(json, document.location.href);
This works even for my custom properties - don't know, why the other
methods didnt for;May be my fault. But anyway, I pull them via ajax
from the server and use always the same structure. No layout/paint is
necessary this way.

But for removing events:I found not one sample. If I look with firebug
to the objects, I am finding:
_events._events._.a
but if I use ".shift()" to remove the first event, nothing happens,
using paint/layout or not.
There is a call for changes open to add a remove/delete method to the
eventsource and I'll go and vote for it.
I have a long running application - showing IT environment events and
relationships - which starts with about ~500 events and it get's
updates up to 50 per hour. So I am ending up with too many events and
each insert needs a long time :-(
If I have > 1000, I clear the eventsource and relod the half of them,
like in a batch;Sad, cost really much time. Just my notes. Timeline is
a great work, but it needs some extensions, like finding/getting
events without enum them all [like get first, get oldest, get last,
get newest, getbyId {note that you can currently get the latest/newest
time, not the event}].
