Hi, we are currently developing an application which will display all available data concerning a civilian. Some of the available datais about the civil state of the civilian (single, married, divorced, widow, ...)

 We would like to present the data in a gantt-chart so it's quite visible and comprehensible to the end-user. We have succeeded in drawing difirent gantt-items containing our businesslogic. So far so good, now for the question....

Since a person (let's make him 40 years old, that was married for 5 years and is devorced for 6 months), will have been single most part of his life (34.5 years) this will generate a very large block and wil "squash" the divorced box to almost a line ... I hope you understand what I mean...

Is there a way to make the timeline (x-axis) progressiive so that the last data (current so most relevant) is displayed better ?

Thanks,

Wim
