Historama project - sorted view in the Timeline?

Q & A
1

Hello there,
first, thank you for the hints in my first thread about this project. I made a first set of settings and as you see in this screenshot it works.

My question is if there is a possibility to have the items “sorted”, let’s say by color.
I have this project in Illustrator and also there there is a timeline, here a screenshot:

Perhaps there is somewhere a setting and I didn’t found it.

Thank you very much

You can sort the events in Timeline View into vertical groups by either using Split View or the Group By functionality.

You can read about how to do that here: Alternatives to Timeline View Group By - Aeon Timeline 3 Knowledge Base

However the group by functionality only does it for entities such as Character, not for colour. However you can still create split screens and filter each screen by colour to get the desired effect.
