A finer timeline, with a specific time as the main focus

#1

Most of the current timeline plugins or related macros display in date format. And what I want is to go through a specific time date like 19:30 and then list it. In a richer format than a simple row or column.

Each day I would create something like twenty or so entries to record my day through a specific time format.

And it would be nice to have a graphical display. But at the moment the echarts plugin doesn’t have a similar component for this.

If anyone might be able to help me, gratefully I appreciate it.

Again, any relevant discussion is welcome.

Perhaps you can show what it may look like with some sample data. I am finding it a little difficult to picture your requirements.

I suspect you should forget the timeline macro and use the list widget.

Thank you very much for your reply and concern. Now I’ll upload some data over.

These entries have time_start and time_end fields that indicate the start time and end time of this event. Also there is a field time_day which indicates a specific day.

This uses the timeline plugin, but this plugin only supports days, not this specific event’s.

Of course I can show the time and data by following the code below.

 <$list filter="[tag<currentTiddler>]">

!!! <$link><<currentTiddler>></$link>  {{!!time_start}}  -> {{!!time_end}} 

</$list>

But it was too simple and not the rich presentation I was looking for.

Ah, you are refering to the timeline plugin, not the macros. If your problem involves something outside the tiddlywiki core it is worth providing references to the plugin in question and if posible mention the author of the plugin because they may be the best to answer.

  • Similar problems can be addressed multiple times so it can cause confusion.

I am guessing but you are refering to this one Timelines 1.3.0 — a graphical representation of a period of time by @Mohammad

  • This is called “timelines” not “timeline”.

I have not used Timeline much yet myself.
