Re: [OpenMap Users] Timeline from propeties file, examples?

Well, having sent that, I think I mostly figured it out. I had to add
these components:

clock.class=com.bbn.openmap.time.Clock
hotwashpanel.class=com.bbn.openmap.gui.HotwashPanel
timepanel.class=com.bbn.openmap.gui.time.TimePanel
eventpanel.class=com.bbn.openmap.gui.event.EventPanel
eventlistpresenter.class=com.bbn.openmap.gui.event.EventListPresenter

Unfortunately, doing that hides the components at the bottom showing
status of the various layers [eg red while tiles are still downloading]

For the data, I was having problems with the timeformat; I set it to
eventtest.timeFormat=k:m:s and used that in the CSV, and was good to go.

What's the protocol for sending in patches? I'd like to modify
CSVEventImporter to include a "description" property; the current one
has "{name} moving" as the event description of all events, which isn't
quite what I need.

Thanks,
Gary
