Exhibit/Timeplot View

Exhibit Reference Home &raquo; To add timeplots to your exhibit, you must include the time extension (after you include exhibit-api.js):

&lt;script src="http://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/2.2.0/extensions/timeplot/timeplot-extension.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;

To include a timeplot view, add to your HTML

&lt;div ex:role="view" ex:viewClass="Timeplot" ex:seriesConnector=".series" ex:pointTime=".year" ex:pointValue=".value" &lt;/div&gt;

This view supports either using one point per item or one series per item. Use,  , and   settings in conjunction, or   and   in conjunction - but don't mix the two.

For an example of the one point per item use, see the Red Sox vs. Yankees.

Settings currently supported include:

To Do

 * P2 Decide on whether this data model is worthwhile or poor, and how best to make its public face the least frustrating
 * P2 Figure out how to integrate the color coding structure found in other views, which should also include the legend widget (worked on, to some extent).
 * P4 Add in other ex: attributes as needed
 * P4 Move away from the one event source / multiple column source model currently employed. I'm interpolating data points to shoehorn the view to work somewhat correctly, but maybe it should just be one event source with one column source per time series
 * P5 Initial display looks extremely fast, but when anything is facet selected, it seems to take quite some time to re-render. Figure out where the choke point is.

In Timeplot

 * P2 Missing feature in timeplot/scripts/plot.js (and elsewhere?) where registered events are not removed despite the dispose method being called.
 * P4 Add in a way to turn certain points into clickable events
 * P9 Time to add series names directly to the timeplot?
 * P9 Work with selection coordinators - maybe bold a line when selected elsewhere, make the lines click / selectable?
