Some of the many new features in TimeMap 5 include:

Convey Fact Patterns Clearly With More Display Options

• Override the date text within fact boxes to customize your timeline. For example, edit a specific date to a more general “Fall 2000” or a more descriptive “10 times in June 2006.”

• The actual date will remain in the spreadsheet view for accurate fact management.

• Select options to globally hide the year, month, etc., as needed, to improve logical flow.
 

Save Time with the Search, Find & Replace Feature

• Now you can search, find and even globally replace facts, dates, names and more to reduce manual work.

• Go to the Edit menu and select Find or Replace.

• Enter the text you wish to find (e.g., someone’s name that needs correcting or a key fact you need to locate). If desired, enter replacement text. Click the appropriate action button on the right.
 

Increase Efficiency with the New Spreadsheet View

• To switch from the Timeline View to the Spreadsheet View, just click the tab at the top of your screen.

• To add a fact in the spreadsheet view, go to the cell that says “Click here to add a new fact” and start typing your time information.

• You can use your mouse or press the Tab key to move to the next cell horizontally and add your fact text.

• To edit text, just double-click in a cell and highlight text you want to replace—or place your cursor where you want to type.

• To create a new timeline, go to the File menu and select New.

• If your fact has an attachment, the TimeMap 5 Spreadsheet View shows the attachment as a paper clip to the left of the Date & Time column.
 

Make a Greater Impact with Customized Graphic Images

• Add graphics and photos to your Fact, Text and Picture Boxes for memorable timelines. TimeMap 5 accepts jpg, gif, bmp, ico (icon), emf (enhanced metafile) and wmf (windows metafile) images.

• While in the Timeline View, go to the Insert menu and click Picture. In the sub-menu, select Choose Picture (stock TimeMap images) or Clip Art to insert the desired graphic file from your collection.

• If you use stock TimeMap images, just click to select the image and it will appear in your timeline.

• If you use Microsoft® Clip Organizer, drag and drop the image you want into your timeline.
