Set "zoom" options for Annotated Timeline about google-visualization-issues HOT 15 OPEN

Note: it will be also great to provide our own labels in order to translate globally
the gadget

Agreed, own labels and ranges for the zoom

Cool then ;)
Better late than never :)

"7d" for a Week / 7 days would be really great. Seriously who needs 5d??

I would like to be able to make my own labels as well.

it will be great if we could add our own zoom labels that would be a great flexibility
to this chart because that zooming in user specific

it's June 10, 2014. Can't believe this useful feature still not available yet. 

We are not working on the annotatedtimeline chart any more, since it is written in flash.


However, we have a new AnnotationChart that duplicates most of the functionality of
the annotatedtimeline.  We don't yet have zoom-related options, other than to not display
it at all, but I agree this is a good idea.

Issue 722 has been merged into this issue.

Agreeing with others. Adding a set initial / default zoom to something other than max
would be very nice on the "new" annotation chart.

Barry, there are two options that are already supported in both the old and new versions
of this chart to set the initial zoom: zoomStartTime and zoomEndTime.

I had seen that parameter and was not certain I could get it to work in my app.

How might I use that setting in a chart with a continuously updating data stream? Maybe
with some sort of set zoomStartTime to now() - 30 days or something? Thanks

You can calculate today's day minus 30 days with: 

  new Date((new Date()).getTime() - 30 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000)

There is now an undocumented 'zoomButtonsOrder' option for the AnnotationChart that
defaults to ['1-hour', '1-day', '5-days', '1-week', '1-month', '3-months', '6-months',
'1-year', 'max'].  Just leave out the ones you want to hide.

I can't get any of the zoombuttons to function properly other than 'max' at this point.
Clicking any of the zoombuttons zooms down to under 10 seconds of data, even though
max shows 2-3 months of data.
