Timelines Dashboard Overview

The Timelines dashboard lists every timeline you have created. To get there, click the Timelines link at the top of the screen.

Creating a timeline

  • Click Create Manually to pick a starting layout and name the timeline yourself. See Create a Timeline for what happens on that screen.
  • Click Create With AI to describe the timeline you want and have Preceden generate it for you.

Opening a timeline

Click the timeline's thumbnail image or name.

Sorting your timelines

  • Click the Name link to sort alphabetically by name.
  • Click the Updated link to put the most recently updated timelines first.

Renaming, duplicating, and deleting a timeline

  1. Hover over the timeline to reveal the three-dot menu in the top right corner of its title bar.
  2. Click the menu, then choose Rename, Duplicate, or Delete.

For more on each of those, see Rename your Timeline, Duplicate a Timeline, and Delete a Timeline.

Organizing timelines into folders

  • Click the Create Folder button and give the folder a name. Folder names can be up to 30 characters and must differ from your other folder names.
  • Drag a timeline onto a folder to move it into that folder. A timeline can only be in one folder at a time, so moving it into a second folder takes it out of the first.
  • Click a folder to open it. The folder's name appears in a breadcrumb above the buttons; click Home in that breadcrumb to get back to all of your timelines.
  • To rename or delete the folder you have open, click the gear icon to the right of the timeline count and choose Rename Folder or Delete Folder.

A timeline you create with Create Manually while a folder is open goes into that folder. To take it back out, open the folder, click the timeline's three-dot menu, and choose Move Out of Folder.

Deleting a folder does not delete the timelines inside it. Those timelines go back to the main list on the dashboard.
