Hi Jim,
The plotrix package has a function for generating Gantt charts.
See

Jim,
Are you trying to develop a GUI for such a chart? If so, then this
would
be the place.
If not and your just looking for some software that creates a graph
like
that, I'd suggest looking for something that produces a Gantt chart. The
"Jewelry History Timeline" looks much like that. Gannt charts are
typically used for planning, but could probably be tweaked to fit you
needs.

First, I don't know if R Sig Gui is the right list, so feel free to
redirect me if this is so.
I would like to produce a historical timeline chart. For a general idea
of what I want, go to the following web site. Scroll down until you find
the "Jewelry History Timeline" jpeg. Say we use a variation of this for
birth dates to annual birthdays for a family or group of friends.

Any pointers and example code would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim
