[flexcoders] Re: How to create a date timeline
I started looking into the flex charts, but I can't seem to 'force' the charts to behave in a timeline way. I guess charting is not the way to go to solve this problem. I uploaded the current status of my project on my university webspace. If you're interested, take a look at http://www.uni-koblenz.de/~inferno/vizeg/1004/main.html. The project is a management an visualization tool for history dates. It is still in progress, and not all features are complete. For a beginner like me, it was easy to develop the data management part. But i noticed, that for the visualization is a more programming knowledge, especialy in actionscript, required. I uploaded also the scources of the visualisation part, there a only a few lines. But the code is still buggy, because i'm not able to change the length of my rectangles inside a createChildren() function. I would be pleased if you've perhaps a idea to solve it.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: How to create a date timeline
I started to work on a similar project, but i have no working codetill now. My idea is to draw rectangles inside a canvas. Thex-position is the value of the begin of the reign and the lenght ofeach bar is the diffence between the end and start.Sounds simple, but i have a problem to set some variables. I postetthis problem in another message. If my problems will be solved, i cansend you an example. But my programming knowlegde is limited, don'texpect a perfect solution ;)If someone has another idea to solve a timeline visualization, anytips would be appreciated...

[flexcoders] Re: How to create a date timeline
Hi, I started looking into the flex charts, but I can't seem to 'force' the charts to behave in a timeline way. I guess charting is not the way to go to solve this problem. The delivered charting components were to complicated for me to understand, so i decided to build up my visualization from scratch. A possible chart to base on is a gantt chart, which is used in time management applications. But i found only one example which realized it which flex2, it was a rocketboots space race entry from Gareth Edwards. (http://members.optusnet.com.au/gareth_edwards/flexwidget/myflex.html) Maybe the upcoming calendar component will be a good base (http://weblogs.macromedia.com/amcleod/archives/2006/08/open_source_fle.cfm), but until now, there is no release date announced.

I want to create a timeline to visualize dates, for example to show the reignlengths of the kings of a country. How can I do this? Jeroen. I started to work on a similar project, but i have no working code till now. My idea is to draw rectangles inside a canvas. The x-position is the value of the begin of the reign and the lenght of each bar is the diffence between the end and start. Sounds simple, but i have a problem to set some variables.
