Timeline Storyteller - change events shape size

[Anonymous]

Timeline Storyteller is great!

Is there any way to change events shape size in Timeline Storyteller?

I have TimelineStoryteller.1.0.6.0.pbiviz and not sure how can I open it with development tool and change it. 

Thank you

As far as I know, events shape size can't be changed.

You could create an idea here to invite community to vote for this feature.

Ignat,

Can I do the customization based on TimelineStoryteller.1.0.6.0.pbiviz?

Or I have to use D3 code to build Power BI Visual from the scratch?

Thank you.

We wouldn't recommend to modify pbiviz file directly. Our recommendation is to wait for official opening of source code.

We'll reach developer of this visual and ask if they are able to implement the feature.

Hi Ignat, 

I think the source code is an offically open source which you can see from package.json in pbiviz file.

I just want to know how to build pbiviz based on the source code. 

Thank you.

Microsoft opened source code of standalone version of Timeline Storyteller.

Source code of Power BI Timeline Storyteller custom visual is still private.

We'll update once the whole source code is opened.

@v-viig 
has the source code already been released , because I really want to modify this visual in certain places like the time it works in and the intervals it works in (like make the y axis Daily ) and then the time axis seconds or 1 minute
