Allow linking of repeated events #36

Closed mgoadric closed 4 years ago

mgoadric commented 4 years ago

If someone repeats events with the same name, the user should have the option in the table to link and unlink these events. Linked events will have the same color, and only appear once in the legend.

I've addressed the second, where the same name will only appear once in the legend so long as they were labeled with the same color. Its still tedious to make all the colors match. I think if two events have the same name, they should automatically be linked unless they are explicitly broken apart.

It would be nice if the link was represented visually.

This issues is easily seen in the following chart, it was very tedious for someone to construct. But they stuck with it!

We should remove the color picker in subsequent events with the same name, and replace it with a link icon. Items with the same name will be automatically linked, and the user can change the color with the first element's color picker.
