Larry -- thanks for the quick response. I've switched to 2.2.0. It appears that with this version, for instant events the label is no longer just placed next to the icon, but instead is positioned in such a way that it would land right next its bullet icon based on possibly a hard-coded image size?
For example, if you look at http://www.sla.org/bob/timeline/sla-timeline2.htm one of the things I liked with version 1 was that I was able to replace the bullet icon images with color-coded descriptive icons, which are wider than the standard bullets. In version 1, doing this just kicked the labels over to accommodate the added bullet width. (Of course, this added a new problem... longer labels were being truncated because of the added bullet width) My question at this point is whether it's possible to change the location of the labels, so that they are positioned relative to the width of the icon. It would be great if this could be done without custom js coding, but if that's not possible, could you point me to where in the code source these instant events are put together? Thanks so much for your help! -Bob On Mar 4, 11:14 pm, Larry Kluger <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Bob, > > Welcome to Timeline. > > You're using the 1.0 ver of the software, which is no longer supported.
