Ok, I implemented the method you mentioned and it seems to have worked
beautifully. Instead of specifying the layout outside of the core classes,
I extended the default theme class to include an ether.interval.label.show
property which defaults to true:
this.ether = {
backgroundColors: [
// "#EEE",
// "#DDD",
// "#CCC",
// "#AAA"
],
// highlightColor: "white",
highlightOpacity: 50,
interval: {
line: {
show: true,
opacity: 25
// color: "#aaa",
},
label: {
show: true
},
And then inside the GregorianEtherPainter initialize method I added the
following:
var showLabel = ("showLabel" in this._params) ? this._params.showLabel :
this._theme.ether.interval.label.show;
var MarkerLayout = showLabel ? Timeline.EtherIntervalMarkerLayout :
Timeline.NoLabelMarkerLayout;
this._intervalMarkerLayout = new MarkerLayout(
this._timeline, this._band, this._theme, align, showLine);
Cheers,
Kyle
