In Event Timeline viz app: does it possible to have data displayed in specific order without dynamic rearrangement?

[edvinas]

Hi,

I like Event Timeline viz app, but I want to have one more feature.
I want to have ability to display data one in a row in specific order without dynamic rearrangement.
Now I just have made separate group for every data item, so I have all my data in separate lines with correct view.

Maybe its possible to have such visualization without using "separate group for every data item"?
Or just to have two-level grouping solution.

Hi @edvinas,

The events in the Event Timeline Viz are listed in time-order.

Take this example - two events have the same date, so they appear in the same order as the results:

If you have the time axis at the bottom, the events will be flipped, so the order is preserved. The first event in the results is the closest to the axis.

If they have different dates, they will appear on the time line in time order.

If you want a specific order, can you manipulate the _time field?

Perhaps you can give an example of how you want it ordered.

The idea is to have all events listed "down and to the right" according order.
I have made separate group for every data item, so I have all my data in separate lines with correct view:

If I would not use separate groups, I got all events listed "to the right", but squeezed into least rows as possible, and visualization changes depending on zoom:
