Timeline does not use a standard time distribution

[reyemtm]

Awesome Project! I have used this project in a recent update to my resume - https://www.getbounds.com/resume-timeline. One thing I noticed is that I had to adjust the timestamps on the bottom timeline to match up with the top timeline. I did not look into the code to see why this was - I just wanted to get something published. Maybe this is by design and it is not supposed to have standard time placement - meaning equal spaces between years, not sure.

Thanks for the nice feedback!

I guess this is the case in your example because it's two separately initialized timelines, in that case they are not automatically aligned, they don't know of each other. The "category" feature allows to automatically split timelines, then they should be aligned. Here's some examples:

https://walterra.github.io/d3-milestones/?path=/story/d3-milestones--os-category-labels

Maybe that feature doesn't work with your variant that has just text in one timelines and images in the other. Let me know if you have more questions!

I was just curious if it’s possible to use dates - say 2021-02-01- and then, if two timelines span the same date range - have the two line up - and have the distance between the years be equal. I’ll check out those examples and see what I can glean from there.
