Timeline View

The timeline shows all events stored in a Gedcom file. An event is a special Gedcom-property like BIRTh, DEATh, RESIdence or GRADuation. This view puts all events on a scale starting before the first event and ending after the last event. The events are put into a layout from left to right (and top to bottom). Scroll around to inspect the events that happened around a specific time.

The toolbar at the lower/right offers additional functionality:

  1. You can choose a zoom-level by clicking on the zoom-widget (double-click restores 100%)
  2. The rightmost button opens the Settings View for this view
