(...) I agree with you on each tool being a line, or at least groupings of tools being together. However I haven't figured out how to get the timeline to do that just yet. It seems to me that it takes the next available space for a line. You post (...) (16 years ago, 19-Apr-08, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)

(...) Hmm, yeah I'm a bit disappointed in how it doesn't let you group events so they show up in the same place horizontally. So, if we want to use this in its current state, we'd have to drop the version dates which isn't good. I hope the group (...) (16 years ago, 20-Apr-08, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
