Support for returning events or events with breaks

[nclm]

Trying Markwhen now and love it!

However, the timeline I’m trying to do needs many instances of the same event on the same line returning several times in time, with breaks/cuts. Syntax-wise, it could be done with a comma:

1991-04 / 2009-08, 2010-06 / 2010-08, 2014-07 / 2015-02: Event name // This event returns a three different date ranges

Any name, colour, location, image added to the event will be kept across all the returns of the events. It would be laid out on the same line.

Apologies if this is already possible but I missed it or if it has already been discussed somewhere else.

+1 for love it
+1 for recurring events

Events on the same line, with either gaps and/or overlaps: list of events (like tasks) or expand/collapse groups?

Support has been added for recurring events. I know that's not exactly what you were asking for but I may still do the repeated date ranges

Initially collapsed groups might also work well for your use case(s):

If you want an event group to start out collapsed, indent the group line definition.

2014-07 / 2015-02:

That is great, Rob! I tested it on markwhen.com and it works for the timeline and gantt views, but it does no repeat in the calendar one where it just displays the initial events without the repetitions.

Also, is there a way to view what's the current deployed version?

Many thanks.
