Hi James, The change in layout was introduced as part of the changes from ver 1 to ver 2. (Before my time.)
David H discusses it here: http://groups.google.com/group/simile-widgets/browse_thread/thread/76d0e3469d6b7858 and here http://groups.google.com/group/simile-widgets/browse_thread/thread/e2333616479dc63d/ It sounds like it is a tricky problem overall. My guess though is that the use of the rows could be reversed as you mention in your post. My suggestions: #1, Most important, please file this issue as a bug in the issue tracker. Please include the references to David's messages above. That way we won't lose sight of the issue. #2, If you want to investigate the issue further yourself, you'll need to go spelunking through the source of the event painter code. You can use svn to compare the differences between the files. However, as David mentions, there was a fundamental design change as part of the ver 2 work. My suggestion is to ignore the v1 files and focus on understanding how the v2 painter lays outs the events. Please keep us informed on your progress.
