The latest version of our timeline visualization toolkit is available now. KronoGraph 2.3 delivers greater flexibility when arranging your window display, and a practical guide to spacing events evenly across the timeline. There are also more advanced search options, giving you access to resources on the Cambridge Intelligence website.
Customize your label area
By default, KronoGraph automatically adjusts the width of the label area to best display the entity labels in your data. But sometimes it’s important to see entire labels, no matter how long they are. Users may also want to temporarily minimize the label area to give more space to the timelines.
The new option lets you control the label area width by simply dragging the right-hand edge left or right.
Try the new behavior for yourself in our “Phone Calls” and “Terror” showcase demos on the KronoGraph SDK site.
Show events in sequence
It’s not unusual for timelines to feature short bursts of activity followed by long periods of inactivity – think surges in IT network traffic, or a sudden flurry of fraudulent credit card transactions.
When events are spread too far apart or grouped too closely together, users find these uneven data patterns much harder to analyze and compare.
The solution is to space events evenly across the timeline, regardless of the actual time intervals between them.
The new “Sequence View” story on the KronoGraph SDK site shows you how to make this happen. It also includes tooltips on every event in the sequence so you don’t lose track of the actual time intervals.
