 * Hi again! 🙂 I would like to make a request, if it’s ok.
 * Would it be possible somehow with the plugin to select which event to show selected
   when the page loads? I mean, let’s say there are this events to be shown in a
   timeline:
 * 1) Event 1 – Title 1 – 1990
    2) Event 2 – Title 2 – 1995 3) Event 3 – Title 3–
   2000 4) Event 4 – Title 4 – 2005 5) Event 5 – Title 5 – 2010
 * Would there be a way to select, let’s say, Event number 3 dated year 2000, as
   the default event that gets to be shown and selected when the page loads?

 * Hi [@catupiryisjustcreamcheese](https://wordpress.org/support/users/catupiryisjustcreamcheese/),
 * Sorry for late reply.
 * As of now this feature is not possible but by the **Jquery** you can do it forcefully.
 * You have to just increase the value of **scaleX** according to your event position.
   **
   <span class=”filling-line” aria-hidden=”true” style=”transform: scaleX(0.180217);”
   ></span>**

 * Dear Sehgal,
 * thank you for your message. It was very helpful, and you were right. With a bit
   of jQuery could be done. I will add this information just in case it could be
   useful for somebody else:
 * I added these 2 lines of code to the end of the file “history.js”(just before
   the last “});” and it worked.
 * $(“.events”).css(“transform”, “translateX(226px)”);
    $(‘.events > ol:nth-child(
   1) > li:nth-child(3) > a:nth-child(1)’)[0].click();
 * Cheers
