Hi there! I'm having some issues creating an animation through time. I've gotten the animation all down, but some of my features are not disappearing when their "Year Ended" time comes around. 

 

For background, I'm working on my thesis project that includes creating maps showing the relationship between textile mills, railroads, and waterways. I'm having issues with my textile mills specifically. I have two fields in the data, "Year Started" and "Year Ended". One mill in particular has its "Year Ended" set as 1902 but doesn't disappear when the year 1902 rolls around.

 

The mills all appear when they are supposed to, but I can't get them to disappear when they are meant to. I have the time set for the data to have a start and end date, with the respective fields applied. Thanks for any help!

Question - are both fields of the date/time field type?  Or is one a text/integer/decimal and the other is a date/time field type?

I've changed them both to the Date field type, and it's still doing the
same thing. Not sure what's going on.
