thanks! Any ideas on how to get around overlapping titles? Was thinking maybe truncate with ellipses like "Some long titl..." but often there are too many events too close together for that to make a difference
I feel your pain on the overlapping titles. When creating a timeline application, there's usually only a short time between 'let's connect to Wikidata' and needing to deal with live label clustering and deconfliction.
A first idea could be, if you are using "nowrap", to have two event title rows. So it could be, top to bottom: event_year, event_rowabove, event_rowbelow, event_bullet, rounded_years.
