Feature Request: Horizontal Bar Layout

[manuelhunziker]

Hi,

We would like to use Vikus Viewer to show our museum collection (about 2,000 objects). The current layout with vertical columns works well, but we would like to try a different layout where the items are shown in horizontal bars instead of columns. This kind of layout would be helpful on wide screens and could make it easier to look through many items.

In this horizontal view, we think the labels and boxes (which are now under the columns) should be shown on the left side of each row. The text can also be rotated, if needed, to fit better.

Is this kind of layout possible, or maybe already planned?

Thanks and best regards,
Manuel

Hi @manuelhunziker ,
what about expanding the column count to a higher number (like 20) ?

Re horizontal layout: there is no instance yet that has this view, but it is totally doable. You would need to change the projection in canvas.js and the timeline.js for that.
I would argue to add this to the list of features for a VIKUS Viewer 2.0 (same goes for more flexible layouts in general).
