Soviet Timeline Example

<timeline>

1. All measures are in pixels

ImageSize = width:350 height:550 PlotArea = left:50 right:0 bottom:10 top:10 AlignBars = justify

DateFormat = yyyy Period = from:1919 till:1991 TimeAxis = orientation:vertical ScaleMajor = unit:year increment:5 start:1920

1. there is no automatic collision detection,
2. so shift texts up or down manually to avoid overlap

Define $dx = 25 # shift text to right side of bar

PlotData=

 bar:Leaders color:red width:25 mark:(line,white) align:left fontsize:S

 from:start till:1922 shift:($dx,1)    text:Vladimir~Ilyich~Lenin
 from:1922  till:1953 shift:($dx,1)    text:Josef Stalin
 from:1953  till:1964 shift:($dx,1)    text:Nikita Khrushchev
 from:1964  till:1982 shift:($dx,1)    text:Leonid Brezhnev
 from:1982  till:1984 shift:($dx,1)    text:Yuri Andropov
 from:1984  till:1985 shift:($dx,1)    text:Chernenko fontsize:XS
 from:1985  till:end  shift:($dx,1)    text:Mikhail~Gorbachev

Line Example

<timeline> PlotArea = left:40 bottom:60 top:10 right:10

TimeAxis = orientation:horizontal format:yyyy

Period = from:1939 till:1945

ImageSize = width:800 height:600

LineData =

 layer:front                                                  # all lines in front of bars unless stated otherwise
 at:1939                            color:yellow              # perpendicular to time axis full length
 at:1940                            color:orange  layer:back  # perpendicular to time axis full length but behind bars
 at:1940  frompos:50 tillpos:105    color:green               # perpendicular to time axis, with specified start and stop points
 from:1942 till:1945 atpos:50       color:red                 # parallel to time axis
 points:(100,20)(170,105)           color:blue    width:3     # from one arbitrary absolute position to another, extra thick
