Hi Steve,
No, I don't have any such example. The timeline view in Exhibit is
implemented here
http://static.simile.mit.edu/exhibit/extensions-2.0/time/scripts/timeline-view.js
Find the method
Exhibit.TimelineView.prototype._reconstruct
You can try to override it by including something like this after
including the timeline extension to Exhibit.
<script>
var oldReconstruct = Exhibit.TimelineView.prototype._reconstruct;
Exhibit.TimelineView.prototype._reconstruct = function() {
oldReconstruct.call(this);
// do something with this._eventSource or this._timeline
// this would be a deep hack, and it only resizes the timeline
based on the number
// of currently visible tracks. If the timeline has more
tracks somewhere else,
// when that section of the timeline is panned to, some events
will not be visible.
var trackCount =
this._timeline.getBand(0).getEventPainter()._tracks.length;
this._dom.plotContainer.style.height = (20 * trackCount) +
"px"; // or something like that
};
</script>
