Create a Timeline

When you first log into Preceden, or when you click Create Manually on your dashboard, you land on the create timeline screen.

To create a new timeline:

  1. Under Choose an initial layout, click one of the starting layouts: Simple, Multiple Layers, Gantt Chart or Classic.
  2. Keep the default color theme, or click one of the color options beneath the layout you picked.
  3. Under Name your timeline, type a name for it.
  4. Click Create Timeline.

Your new timeline opens, ready for you to start adding events. New timelines are private by default, so only you can see one until you choose otherwise. See Adjust Timeline Visibility if you'd like to share it.
