I am trying to build a motion chart using a quarterly time interval.
The documentation says it's possible by setting the Date data type to
'string' and using ISO8601 format in the data.setValue, e.g.,
2010Q1.

The following snippet does not work for me.

function drawVisualization() {
var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
  data.addRows(6);
  data.addColumn('string', 'Fruit');
  data.addColumn('string', 'Date');
  data.addColumn('number', 'Sales');
  data.addColumn('number', 'Expenses');
  data.addColumn('string', 'Location');
  data.setValue(0, 0, 'Apples');
  data.setValue(0, 1, new Date (1988Q1));
  data.setValue(0, 2, 1000);
  data.setValue(0, 3, 300);
  data.setValue(0, 4, 'East');
  data.setValue(1, 0, 'Oranges');
  data.setValue(1, 1, new Date (1988Q1));
  data.setValue(1, 2, 950);
  data.setValue(1, 3, 200);
  data.setValue(1, 4, 'West');
  data.setValue(2, 0, 'Bananas');
  data.setValue(2, 1, new Date (1988Q1));
  data.setValue(2, 2, 300);
  data.setValue(2, 3, 250);
  data.setValue(2, 4, 'West');
  data.setValue(3, 0, 'Apples');
  data.setValue(3, 1, new Date(1988Q2));
  data.setValue(3, 2, 1200);
  data.setValue(3, 3, 400);
  data.setValue(3, 4, "East");
  data.setValue(4, 0, 'Oranges');
  data.setValue(4, 1, new Date(1988Q2));
  data.setValue(4, 2, 900);
  data.setValue(4, 3, 150);
  data.setValue(4, 4, "West");
  data.setValue(5, 0, 'Bananas');
  data.setValue(5, 1, new Date(1988Q2));
  data.setValue(5, 2, 788);
  data.setValue(5, 3, 617);
  data.setValue(5, 4, "West");

  var motionchart = new google.visualization.MotionChart(
      document.getElementById('visualization'));
  motionchart.draw(data, {'width': 800, 'height': 400});
}

Any thoughts about what else to try?

Thanks,

Derek
