Changes since v0.9.4.
Early release. In SemVer terms, anything may change before 1.0, including file formats, the HTTP API and settings, though changes to
.ochxand.ochfiles will come with conversions.
New
These plugins make an Events and Causal Factors chart draw as the convention does. They're all plugins: the timeline file format is unchanged, and timelines without them look as before.
- Ellipses (#324, [#328]): Moment shapes version 3 adds an
ellipseshape, the oval ECF charts use for conditions. Timelines pinned to Moment shapes 1 or 2 keep drawing what they did, and a stored ellipse shows as a circle there. A plugin manifest can now list the shapes added after the first twelve that it draws (shapes). - Presumptive outline (#325, [#330]): a new official plugin with a "Presumptive (unconfirmed)" checkbox on moments, stack entries and durations. Checked items are drawn with a dashed outline, of any shape and on light or dark themes, and the reader flags them. Plugin authors get a
togglefield kind, anoutlinemarker kind andapi.outline("dashed" | "solid"). - Relationship arrows (#326, [#329]): a new official plugin that puts arrowheads on relationship arcs. Each moment or duration lists its relationships with an arrow (none, to, from or both), and an arc shows the union of what both ends ask for. An entry whose relationship has been deleted draws nothing and is outlined in red in the editor, so it can be removed. Direction is a drawing convention: relationships stay undirected and unlabeled, and Separate doesn't follow arrows.
- Causal factor analysis suite 2 (#332): the suite, and the CFAM edition's new timelines, now include Moment shapes 3, Presumptive outline and Relationship arrows. Version 1 is still served and recognized.
- Videos 12 and 13, Shorts 9 and 10 (#307, [#318], [#327] and a follow-up): timelines from AI and automation through API keys, and investigations with causal factor analysis, in
publicity/.
