Options: This is the area where action connections and data binding operations are performed. After the action connection is made, new fields are opened in this Property. In order to see these fields, first a table must be created in Datasource. Then, SQL Actions must be created. The created SQL Actions should be added as Initial Action by clicking the button.
Mode: It is the field where the display settings of the data in the Timeline element are selected with options such as “right”, “left”, “alternate”. The Timeline element added to the screen comes in “Alternate” mode by default. You can select from the mode pop-up window to display the Timeline element as you want.
For example:
Create a Datasource named “Timeline Datasource”. In the table you created, define the variables “title”, “description” and “color” in string type.
Then click on the “CREATE” button.
Then, click on the “New SQL Action” option by clicking on the “+” icon in the “Actions” section on the left panel. Create SQL Action as “Select * from timeline datasource” and click on “CREATE” button.
Click on the “+Add Action” button to link the created SQL Action to the page. Call the action by typing the action name (for example, “Timelineall”) in the “Searchbox” box. The action you called will be displayed in the “Options” field in the Properties panel of the Timeline element. After selecting the action, the data related to the selected action must be matched.
