2. Select the project you will work on from the Apps screen.
3. Enter the UI Design module.

4. From the Elements panel on the left side, drag and drop the Timeline element under the Display category onto your screen.

You can configure the properties of the Timeline element in the Properties panel on the right edge.

• Options: This is the area where action connections and data binding operations are performed. After an action connection is made, new properties are displayed in this field.

In order to use this field, you must first create a table in Datasource and then create SQL Actions.

• Mode: Determines how the Timeline data will be displayed on the screen. You can choose from the following options:
  
  • Right: All events are displayed on the right side.
  • Left: All events are displayed on the left side.
  • Alternate: Events are displayed alternately on the right and left side (default setting).

In this example, the Timeline element will display data by connecting to a SQL Datasource.

1. Creating a Datasource

1. Enter the Datasource module.
2. Create a new table and define the following variables:
   
   • title (String): Title of the event
   • description (String): Description of the event
   • color (String): Color code to be used for each event
3. Create the table by clicking the CREATE button.

2. Create SQL Action

1. Click on the + icon in the Actions section in the left panel.
2. Select New SQL Action.
3. Create a new SQL Action by entering the following SQL command:

SELECT * FROM timeline_datasource

      4. Complete the process by clicking the CREATE button.

3. Binding SQL Action to Timeline Element

1. Select the Timeline element.
2. Click the +Add Action button in the Properties panel on the right side.
3. In the Search Box field, type the name of the SQL Action you created (for example, TimelineAll) and select the action.
4. The selected action will be displayed in the Options field of the Timeline element.
5. At this stage, match the data as follows:
   
   • Title: title
   • Description: description
   • Color: color

Important Notes
