Your timeline's narrative automatically syncs with your draft or manuscript: no need to pick and choose individual items to sync.Syncing with your favorite writing programs is faster and more powerful than ever before: Turn on automatic resolution and we will do the hard work for you and keep everything lined up. Constraints provide greater control, and allow you to specify exact alignment (no earlier/later than, or exact matches) to specific dates or other events.
They are fast and flexible, and unlike version 2, do not enforce exact dates and offsets.
Dependencies signify tasks that are blocked by other tasks: that is, tasks that cannot start until other tasks complete. Our revamped dependencies are easier to use and offer greater flexibility. Want to move events from your back story into your narrative? Just split your screen, and drag the event from timeline to Narrative View.Īdding an existing person into a mindmap?

So now you can plan your story (or presentation, or legal argument) independently from the strict date-based order that events actually occurred. Narrative Order: represents the order in which events (and other items) are introduced within a narrative or presentation of the timeline data. Chronological Order: represents a date-based, sequential order of events as they actually occurred (even for items that have not yet been allocated dates). Mindmap View: a free-form space to brainstorm ideas and create visual representations of relationshipsĪeon Timeline 3 supports two different approaches to ordering events within your timeline:. Outline View: a spreadsheet-like outline display of your narrative structure. Narrative View: a graphical depiction of an independent narrative order and structure. Subway View: shows how individual threads of people, story arcs and concepts are intertwined. Spreadsheet View: rapid data entry to get down your ideas.
Relationship View: a matrix showing how your events relate to people and places.Timeline View: a graphical representation of events across time.New VisualisationsĬreate your data once and visualize it any number of ways: With a cleaner, more modern interface, faster data entry, new visualisations and greater flexibility, Aeon Timeline 3 is the result of 3 years' hard work by a growing team.
