\arguments{
\item{data}{a \code{data.frame}. The data has to have at least two columns,
one with date information (\code{datevar}) and one numerical variable.}
\item{datevar}{column name of \code{data} which shows the date dimension.
The information has to be of class \code{\link{Date}} or \code{POSIX*} time
series.}
\item{numvar}{column name of \code{data} which shows the values to be
displayed against \code{datevar}. The information has to be
\code{\link{numeric}}.}
\item{idvar}{column name of \code{data} which identifies different groups of
the data. The information has to be of class \code{\link{character}} or
\code{\link{factor}}.}
\item{titlevar}{column name of \code{data} which shows the title of the
annotations. The information has to be of class \code{\link{character}} or
\code{\link{factor}}. Missing information can be set to \code{NA}. See
section 'Details' for more details.}
\item{annotationvar}{column name of \code{data} which shows the annotation
text. The information has to be of class \code{\link{character}} or
\code{\link{factor}}. Missing information can be set to \code{NA}. See
section 'Details' for more details.}
\item{date.format}{if \code{datevar} is of class \code{\link{Date}} then
this argument specifies how the dates are reformatted to be used by
JavaScript.}

\description{
The gvisAnnotatedTimeLine function reads a data.frame and creates text
output referring to the Google Visualisation API, which can be included into
a web page, or as a stand-alone page.
}
\details{
An annotated time line is an interactive time series line chart with
optional annotations. The chart is rendered within the browser using Flash.
}
\section{Warnings}{
AnnotatedTimeline (gvisAnnotatedTimeLine) is Flash based, conisder using AnnotationChart (gvisAnnotationChart) instead.
For more details visit: goo.gl/tkiEV8
Because of Flash security settings the chart might not work correctly when
accessed from a file location in the browser (e.g.,
file:///c:/webhost/myhost/myviz.html) rather than from a web server URL
(e.g. https://www.myhost.com/myviz.html). See the googleVis package vignette
and the Macromedia web site
(\url{https://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/})
for more details.
Important: To use this visualization, you must specify the height and width
of the container element explicitly on your page. So, for example:
options=list(width="600px", height="350px")
Use code{\link{gvisAnnotationChart}} for a non-Flash version of this plot.

\examples{
## Please note that by default the googleVis plot command
## will open a browser window and requires Flash and Internet
## connection to display the visualisation.
