Do items in timeline groups support 'end' time?

Do items in timeline groups support 'end' time?

Yes that should work. When an item has both start and end date, it will be displayed as a range. You see an example of this in example 01_basic.html, where item 4 is a range.

Yep the range works when the timeline doesn't have groups.
I tried to add groups to it (code below), and the ranges go away. I tried to add 'end' to the groups example too, and I see the same issue.
Any ideas?

// create a data set with groups
var names = ['John', 'Alston', 'Lee', 'Grant'];
var groups = new vis.DataSet();
for (var g = 0; g < groupCount; g++) {
  groups.add({ id: g, content: names[g] });
}
// // create visualization
var container = document.getElementById('visualization');
var options = {
  groupsOrder: 'content',
  orientation: 'top'
};
var items = [
  { id: 1, content: 'item 1', start: '2013-04-20', group: 0, type: 'box' },
  { id: 2, content: 'item 2', start: '2013-04-14', group: 1, type: 'box' },
  { id: 3, content: 'item 3', start: '2013-04-18', group: 2, type: 'box' },
  { id: 4, content: 'item 4', start: '2013-04-16', end: '2013-04-19', group: 3, type: 'box' },
  { id: 5, content: 'item 5', start: '2013-04-25', group: 0, type: 'box' },
  { id: 6, content: 'item 6', start: '2013-04-27', group: 1, type: 'box' }
];

var timeline = new vis.Timeline(container);
timeline.setOptions(options);
timeline.setGroups(groups);
timeline.setItems(items);
});

Thanks,

You're right. This is just a bug in the Timeline, will be fixed.

I figured out that it is no bug... In your data you specify type: 'box' for every item. When you change this to type: 'range' or leave it out, things will work fine :D

Ah you're right :) Super silly of me, thank you!
