TIMELINE. event labels with negative vertical offsets #208

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
For events with long text labels, detailed-painter.js finds free tracks to
place them; either above or under the labels of previous events, by
assigning them either positive or negative values for the "top" style
property. For densely populated dates (containing many events on/around the
same date), this results in labels that drop off the limits of their parent
div.timeline-band-events parent. Especially labels with negative vertical
offsets thus become unreachable, unless
a) the vertical offset of the ancestor div.timeline-band-inner can be made
to compensate for this negative offset by providing the same positive value
b) there is a way to prevent these negative offsets and make 0 the minimal
value for the "top" style property

or (utopically?)
c) the timeline bands could be dragged both horizontally and vertically

Any suggestions?

Cheers,

Ron

I've added the original layout back. Hope that helps.
