Introducing: colour code your timeline!

Use our new colour labels to organise and visualise your sub-timelines.

From now on, you'll find these vibrant little swatches in your Years editor:

The colours can be used to organise your sub-timelines, as they will always appear ordered by colour. For example, you can decide to put all your location-related sub-timelines in green, and all your names-related sub-timelines in blue.

Where colour labels are further useful is on your Timeline page. By choosing a number of sub-timelines in the side menu, and activating the switch from combo to parallel, you'll now see this:

A spectral feast

All your events will now appear in the colours of its chosen sub-timelines, creating parallel paths throughout your chronology. This can be use in a plethora of ways, such as:

• Following the different branches of your family tree in your genealogical timeline.

• Compare the development of different topics throughout time.

• Visually divide your timeline into eras, such as presidencies or the reigns of monarchs.

• See multiple peoples' life stories alongside one another.

... and much more! Experiment and find how a colour-labelled timeline can best serve you and the story you want to show.

Good luck time climbing!

Cheers
