Implement SIMILE/Timeline in D3? | Danny | 3/26/12 6:45 AM | Hi,
A few years ago the MIT Simile project implemented "Timeline" (http:// www.simile-widgets.org/timeline/) for displaying events in a scrolling timeline. (Very cool!) We were looking at that for displaying time series images, but the Simile code has the worst possible documentation and hasn't been supported for several years. Seems this kind of thing would be very well suited to D3. I wonder if anyone has thought about implementing something like Simile/Timeline in D3? Danny |
Re: Implement SIMILE/Timeline in D3? | mawksey | 3/27/12 6:56 AM | Not d3.js but came across this nice timeline library http://timeline.verite.co
(renders in html) It's open source and can render from json or a Google Spreadsheet Martin > A few years ago the MIT Simile project implemented "Timeline" (http://www.simile-widgets.org/timeline/) for displaying events in a scrolling |
Re: Implement SIMILE/Timeline in D3? | Danny | 3/29/12 7:41 AM | Thanks Martin,
It looks good and seems more stable than the MIT one but it is too simple. Our project is for summarizing video clips. Want to take sample images out of a video clip and show them on a "timeline". Back in November there was a discussion on "what's the next feature you want for D3". Quite a few voted for Timeline. Not sure if Mike or anyone else is considering to add that to the core... Would be nice :-) Danny |
Re: Implement SIMILE/Timeline in D3? | Greg Weber | 3/30/12 7:10 AM | for video timelines check out http://mozillapopcorn.org/ They are about to make a new release of butter.js, which is probably what you would be interested in. I am working on a similar project. Perhaps we can keep collaborating. |
