### What Update the Visible History UI: - It now shows up in its own collapsible section in the Selection Panel. - It makes it more clear that the item is either inheriting or overriding the settings. - When inheriting, the inherited settings are displayed. - When overriding, the editor as a more intuitive UI (fixes #4190) - The editor also addresses a bug for timeline with large values (e.g. actual dates) but small spans, like `log_time` (fixes #4210) - The test script now has a whole lot of timelines with all sorts of spans and offsets, for test purposes. Side effects on the code base: - slight tweak on the querying (latest at is used whenever visible time range boundaries resolve to the same absolute time) - added `individual_properties` to `DataResult`, to allow UI to display/edit it - added support to erase property overrides in `DataResult::save_override` - added a new collapsing header widget in re_ui, to match our style Playground RRD: [test_visible_history.rrd.zip](https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/files/13348321/test_visible_history.rrd.zip) (same as the output of `tests/python/visible_history_playground/main.py`). ### Screenshots New "Visible Time Range" UI in the blueprint section: <img width="429" alt="image" src="https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/assets/49431240/c215560f-7679-442a-afe9-561d6cae6285"> When Override is selected: <img width="379" alt="image" src="https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/assets/49431240/f9b1651f-0d29-4085-952b-3f55b0c3c469"> When operating on "large" time (e.g. `log_time`): <img width="393" alt="image" src="https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/assets/49431240/67f69dd9-1e90-4d04-9c8b-5fe2696c92bc"> Same when using the Default/Inherited value: <img width="378" alt="image" src="https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/assets/49431240/ffbfa49a-54bb-472b-be47-25a800d4f771"> <br/> <br/> <details><summary>Older screenshots which aged like milk, for posterity.</summary> On (supported) space views, the choice is "Default vs. Override": <img width="336" alt="image" src="https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/assets/49431240/69ab4063-cd79-4c56-a01a-9bf54d74070a"> On groups and entities, the choice is "Inherited vs. Override": <img width="343" alt="image" src="https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/assets/49431240/3911c456-97b1-48ed-aa69-9cbb3cf92611"> On timeseries space views, the default reflects the fact that the default behaviour is, in fact, different from 2D/3D space views <img width="345" alt="image" src="https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/assets/49431240/35692f66-dcb3-419b-8246-2823d802c39b"> When overriding, the text becomes "editable": <img width="338" alt="image" src="https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/assets/49431240/641758ec-2762-4c13-b87f-de1cec144ea0"> Same, when inherited: <img width="313" alt="image" src="https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/assets/49431240/52272daa-d215-40e4-8f7d-2caeea522434"> With timelines with "large" times, an offset is extracted and explicitly displayed, while the unit in the time editor adapts to the actual span: <img width="405" alt="image" src="https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/assets/49431240/dfa887d5-aa6c-49aa-be1c-704045788422"> Same inherited: <img width="438" alt="image" src="https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/assets/49431240/ea748355-5293-422a-8f25-6092529b6452"> </details> ### Checklist * [x] I have read and agree to [Contributor Guide](https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) and the [Code of Conduct](https://github.com/rerun-io/rerun/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) * [x] I've included a screenshot or gif (if applicable) * [x] I have tested [demo.rerun.io](https://demo.rerun.io/pr/4222) (if applicable) * [x] The PR title and labels are set such as to maximize their usefulness for the next release's CHANGELOG - [PR Build Summary](https://build.rerun.io/pr/4222) - [Docs preview](https://rerun.io/preview/69df7cdce2fa9c3899b2b04aa2bf487807485c02/docs) <!--DOCS-PREVIEW--> - [Examples preview](https://rerun.io/preview/69df7cdce2fa9c3899b2b04aa2bf487807485c02/examples) <!--EXAMPLES-PREVIEW--> - [Recent benchmark results](https://ref.rerun.io/dev/bench/) - [Wasm size tracking](https://ref.rerun.io/dev/sizes/)
