Feature request: allow symbolic time labels instead of only years

Open Tails opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

This tool is absolutely amazing! I see the potential of using this as a roadmap visualization that can be generated, but for that it would be nice to use symbolic time notations instead of the years at the top. Something like "Q1", "last year", "next year" etc.

Is that possible?

Thank you for the kind words! I can see how using symbolic times at the top would be useful. It's certainly possible, I just haven't figured out what form it should take. Either I make a subset of possible labels (the current implementation plus one for "relative to now" like x years ago or in x months plus a couple others) or I've been thinking about a plugin system where plugins could have more fine-grained control over how things are displayed.

This is all to say I agree with you but I haven't figured out the best way to implement it yet.
