Add ability to "Animate" #7

Closed XtremeOwnageDotCom closed 5 years ago

XtremeOwnageDotCom commented 5 years ago

Add the ability to animate data over time.

Example: https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/3217/

This app, has the ability to click play, and plot the data over time. This functionality would be great to be included in Maps+.

A few examples of its implementation:

Check out the latest 3.1.0 release for path playback capability. Have a look at the Path Playback example dashboard.

Thanks! Tested the feature, and it seems to work well.

One piece of feedback- the playback speed multiplier does not seem to be working as I would expect.

I have modified the default value, adding 0s to the end for every test interation- and it still seems to be going second by second, instead of being able to speed it up.

XtremeOwnageDotCom commented 5 years ago

Disregard me- I determined I need to modify the Tick Length.

XtremeOwnageDotCom commented 5 years ago

Although- The slider does NOT work as expected. It will scroll back to the start of epoch time, making it unsuitable for looking at a set of data which only goes back one day.

I would recommend setting its values to the latest, and earliest event.

sghaskell commented 5 years ago

Thanks @ericmck2000. It shouldn't reset to epoch time. It should default to earliest/latest for all the tracks in the playback. Can you reproduce what you're seeing?

XtremeOwnageDotCom commented 5 years ago

Yes- I reproduced the issue using this search.
