Hello, all.

Adjacent events in my timeline seem to get painted on the same track, which causes weird graphical glitches. See the attached image for clarification and examples of these graphical glitches. How do I fix this?

Thanks,
Thomas Darr

So, are you saying that none of these events should be on the same
track? Or that the ones that are on the same track are too close
together? I guess I am confused about how you want it to look.

Each icon should have an adjacent label. The upper leftmost icon, for example, is actually associated with TM 266-01-060-1. The attached screenshot is the result of an enlarged Timeline container and a zoomed Timeline (a range of 1 Ma instead of the previous range of 5 Ma). It breaks because the label "KNM LU 355" is too wide to fit between the icons and labels for temporally adjacent events, when it seems like it should instead just paint the icon and label for KNM LU 355 on a different track.
