TIMELINE. Lost event #172

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I added an event to the example1.xml :

<event
        start="Aug 16 2006 00:00:00 GMT"
        title="Back from Beijing"
        link="http://www.cems.uwe.ac.uk/wiki/"
        >
        Time to wiki
    </event>

but it is not rendered .

However moving the date forward to Aug 17 it appears!

When it is midnight at GMT, what time is it at your place? :) This seems to
be a time zone problem. Try putting in exact time zone as in this example
XML file

http://simile.mit.edu/timeline/examples/jfk/jfk.xml

Note a lot of GMT-0600. And then make sure that your time line's bands are
in the time zone you want. See the source code of

http://simile.mit.edu/timeline/examples/jfk/jfk.html

Search for "timeZone" to see how that's set.

Oops, maybe I spoke too soon. The default time zone is indeed GMT if not
specified. Check if your bands are configured with different time zones.

Ahha, I can now - with the narrow band in the example of 150 px. The added
event fails to be rendered because it is placed below the bottom of the band.
