Add the brand-ui ChartNavigator chart (from @elabs-ai/components-charts) to this project. 1. Read https://elabs-ai.com/llms.txt first: it maps every package and the rules. If you can use MCP servers, connect https://elabs-ai.com/mcp and use its search, docs and tokens tools. If not, run the same lookups in the terminal: `npx -y @elabs-ai/components-cli search "<what you need>"` and `npx -y @elabs-ai/components-cli docs <Component>`. 2. Look ChartNavigator up before writing code: `npx -y @elabs-ai/components-cli docs ChartNavigator` prints its real props, variants, what it pairs with and what to avoid. 3. If @elabs-ai/components-charts is not installed yet: `pnpm add @elabs-ai/components-tokens @elabs-ai/components-ui @elabs-ai/components-charts` (or `npm install @elabs-ai/components-tokens @elabs-ai/components-ui @elabs-ai/components-charts`). If this is the first brand-ui package in the project, wire it once: import `@elabs-ai/components-tokens/styles.css` plus the `themes/light.css` and `themes/dark.css` stylesheets in the CSS entry, add one Tailwind `@source` line per installed @elabs-ai package (Tailwind does not scan node_modules, so without it everything renders unstyled), and wrap the app root in `ThemeProvider` from `@elabs-ai/components-tokens`. 4. Use it here: [the screen or file, and what it should show] 5. Rules: use only @elabs-ai/components-* components and the semantic tokens — no raw colours, no raw font sizes, no arbitrary Tailwind values. Look up each component's real props with the docs tool before you use it; never guess a prop. 6. Done means: the typecheck passes, `npx -y @elabs-ai/components-cli audit src --strict` reports nothing, and you have opened the app and looked at every screen you touched in the light and the dark theme.
Examples
Controlled Shared Window
One controlled `window` shared by two charts: moving either strip moves both plots. Keyboard: Tab to a handle; arrows step one month (the median data step), Shift+arrows ten, Home/End to the handle's bounds, PageUp/PageDown pan by a whole window.
Align End Live Feed
`align="end"` (the associative BI suite `scrollStartPos: 1`): the first window sits on the latest data, and — until someone moves it — keeps following the feed as rows arrive.
Scrollbar
`scrollbar="bar"`: the same window and handles as a plain 24 px scrollbar — no shadow.
Min Span Clamp
`minSpan` — the smallest window the handles allow (here 30 days; the default is 5× the median step). A handle stops `minSpan` short of the other one.
Narrow Tier
The narrow tier (a 380 px container): the strip drops to 32 px; the window, handles and keyboard contract are unchanged.
Standalone Index
The strip on its own — an `index` window over 480 rows (the category model RM-141 builds on). The handles speak rows: "Row 121 of 480".
Pinch Zoom
Pinch-to-zoom, on by default with no strip: spread two fingers on a touch screen, pinch a trackpad, or hold Ctrl/⌘ and wheel. A two-finger drag pans. With the chart focused, `+` / `−` / `0` do the same; once zoomed, the zoom buttons (zoom in, zoom out, reset) appear in the plot's corner. One finger still scrubs the tooltip horizontally and scrolls the page vertically. `zoom={false}` hands every gesture back to the page.
API
ChartNavigator
| Prop | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
kindrequired | "time" | "index" | `time`: the extent and windows are Dates; `index`: row numbers (`end` exclusive). |
extentrequired | [Date, Date] | [number, number] | The full data extent: `[firstDate, lastDate]` or `[0, rowCount]`. |
window | NavigatorWindow | null | Controlled window; `null` = the whole extent. |
defaultWindow | NavigatorWindow | Initial window when uncontrolled. Default: the whole extent. |
onWindowChange | (window: NavigatorWindow, meta: NavigatorChangeMeta) => void | |
minSpan | number | Smallest window: ms (time) or rows (index). Default 5× median step / 3 rows. |
align | "start" | "end" | Where the uncontrolled first window sits when only `minSpan`-free defaults apply. |
data | readonly Record<string, unknown>[] | The rows behind the shadow (and the median step for time). |
valueKeys | readonly string[] | Series keys pooled into the shadow. |
xAccessor | (row: Record<string, unknown>) => Date | number | A row's x (time kind). Default: `row.date`. Ignored for index. |
stacked | boolean | Pool the stack total per row instead of each value. |
orientation | "horizontal" | "vertical" | Default `"horizontal"`. `"vertical"` runs top → bottom (RM-141). |
scrollbar | "miniChart" | "bar" | `"miniChart"` (shadow + window, default) or `"bar"` (window only). |
length | number | Main-axis length in px; measured from the element when omitted. |
thickness | number | Cross-axis thickness in px. Default per style and tier (40 / 32 / 24). |
inset | { start?: number; end?: number } | Main-axis padding (px) so the window lines up with a plot's inner range. |
step | number | One arrow-key step: ms (time) or rows (index). Default: the median data step / 1 row. |
