Here is an idea for making the timeline widget better.
1. Add a clear button (ideally customizable, e.g., font, size, color) to allow users to activate and deactivate the widget. For now, that button exists but is hidden in the information (i) button and is not intuitively found. Get it out of there. Make it obvious. Even better, allow us to link a button widget to that behaviour.
2. Allow the developper to select the default state of the widget (either on or off). When the timeline widget is positionned in a closed sidebar panel for example, it can be very confusing to have an activated time filter. Users then only see partial data without necessarely understanding that a filter is applied.
Thanks!
