• 11.04.1955: Charle's birth
• 08.09.1960: Elisabeth's marriage
• 01.01.1961: Sandy and Raoul's separation
• etc...

and being able to insert in this table any other important event, even if not defined by genographic elements or other tables or fields, such as:

- 3.11.1979: Marcs graduation

- 5.12.1980: Thomas' first's steps

etc...

 I've included a help 'event' on the timeline for new users and the text for this is dictionary based to assist skin translation.

And I have added the link to the genomap timelines from individual and family pages. These options centre the time line on the earliest event for that person/family.

Yet to do:  1. timelines for individual & family events.  2. Vertical scroll bar.

Note for new readers: the attached zip file should be unzipped into a Customized English Narrative Report skin, replacing some files and adding others.

Update: Attachment removed see later posting.

1. I seem to have marriagees with blue time lines where they occur on a line that is also (previously) occupied by another life line.

2. The help feature is ok, but will be 'in the way' should anybody want to print the result. It may be better in the legend above the display.

3. The Icon for timeline does not appear on all Individual pages.  This is ok if no D.O.B. but seems to occur more often. Perhaps it occurs when only One individual would be represented on a Timeline map (only one d.o.b. on map), and that will make sense until you add other individual and family events.

All 'duration bars' are light blue i.e. where event has strat & end date. The Timeline interface allows coloured bars only if 'isDuration' is set true, but then no icon is displayed. I chose to always have icons.

I thought about an icon in the legend but I love the 'bubble' feature of the Timeline code and it would be quite complex for me to try and implement a similar feature outside the timeline. So as a compromise I will change it so that the help 'event' is removed the 1st time a 'legend' button is clicked.[/quote]

Yes you are correct and this was deliberate. I centre the timeline on the 1st event for this person and so no event - no timeline. Also a timeline with just one event seems pointless so again it is surpressed. When I write individual & family timelines I was thinking of a minimum of three events, or an event other than birth/death, marriage/divorce before generating a timeline.

Note:  This image shows the life line of Person A (third line down), who dies six months before the marriage of Peter and Sue as shown. The blue life line continues on after the marriage event. It should not.

I can confirm that on 3. above, the timeline button does not occur on the individual page if the person has no d.o.b. OR is the only member of a family name that has a d.o.b.
