Before Date

The date before which the record should be displayed in the exhibit.

If you're working with NeatlineSimile: If a "Before Date" is defined, then the record will only be displayed on the map when the timeline is centered on a date that falls before this date. Again, imagine you're working with a record that's plotted as a point on the map. If you set "Before Date" to 2000, then the point will disappear when you scroll the timeline forward to 2001, and reappear when you scroll back to 1999.

If both a "After Date" and a "Before Date" are defined, then the record will only be visible when the timeline is within the duration between the two dates. For example, if "After Date" is 2000, and "Before Date" is 2010, the record would be visible between those two dates, but not before 2000 or after 2010. By stringing together collections of records with different after- and before-dates, it's possible to create complex time-series animations
