Description

A Zendesk user wrote with a timeline where she felt that the navigation might mislead readers and asked if the navigation could be covered.

It seems like it might be a reasonable approach to make the title screen more distinct from other slides and have it overlay the navigation and basic slide area. As it is now, the title slide doesn't do much to play its role as something distinct from a regular event.

This may not be a good idea for various reasons, but I thought I'd document it

Research direction

Start with the linked TimelineJS example, then locate the JavaScript entry points that render the title slide and navigation. Confirm the intended overlay behavior and its effect on slide readability before implementing; done means the title slide covers the navigation and basic slide area without misleading controls.
