Greetings. I've seen some old issues related to this, but they all seem to be from Drupal 5 and discuss a library file that doesn't seem to be used anymore. I'm trying to set up a timeline that starts in the mid-1800's; initial focus sets to 1901 if I set it for the first event (which takes place in 1862, using a CCK date field), and to 1970 if I try to manually specify a custom date of 1/1/1862.

Is it possible to set the initial focus earlier than 1901?

This is a duplicate of: #902324: Date focus before 1902
But I'm keep on working within this issue since here are more people subscribed to.

This is not implemented yet. If nobody is providing a patch for the 6.x version, this is going to be implemented into the future 7.x version of the module.

We really do need this for D6 - Using Timeline for something that starts in 1850.

It's not just the initial focus but timeline seems to be displaying the first date (1865) after 1901 as well

We too are hoping that someone can find a fix for this for D6.... subscribing.

Having the same issue with this. Though this looks like pretty old news at this point, I thought I'd chime in anyhow, just in case…
