Overview
The Timeline view provides a Gantt-chart visualization of allocations across time. Each row represents an asset, and colored horizontal bars represent allocation periods, with colors indicating the allocation category. This view is ideal for quickly understanding the temporal distribution of downtime and maintenance across your fleet.
Navigation & Zoom
The Timeline provides intuitive navigation controls:
Zoom Levels
Control the time resolution using the zoom controls in the toolbar. Three levels are available:
Hour view — Shows individual hours; best for investigating specific events within a day
Day view — Shows individual days; good for weekly/monthly analysis
Week view — Shows weekly blocks; useful for long-term overview
Panning & Scrolling
Use the left/right arrow buttons to shift the timeline forward or backward
Mouse scroll on the timeline header to zoom in/out
Click and drag on the timeline to pan
Timeline Filters
The timeline toolbar includes several filter toggles:
| Filter | Description |
|---|---|
| Duration filter | Hide allocations shorter than a threshold: 1 min, 5 min, 10 min, 60 min, 120 min, 720 min (12h), 1440 min (1d), 2880 min (2d), 10080 min (1w) |
| Show Overridden | Toggle visibility of overridden allocations (allocations replaced by manual edits) |
| Show UTC Time | Switch the timeline header between site time and UTC |
Interactions
Clicking Allocation Bars
Click on any allocation bar to open a tooltip showing the allocation details (asset, category, start/end time, duration). From the tooltip, you can navigate to the override view for that specific allocation.
Context Menu
Right-click on the timeline to access context menu actions relevant to the clicked position (time, asset).
Add Bulk Event Mode
The Add Bulk Event button enters a special mode for creating events directly on the timeline:
Click Add Bulk Event to enter the mode
Click on the timeline to set the start time
Alt+Click to set the end time
The event creation panel opens with the selected time range
Color Legend
Each allocation category has a unique color. The Gantt chart uses these same colors from the category configuration:
Red — Typically repair/forced outage categories
Yellow/Orange — Warning or partial performance
Green — Full performance or operational
Blue — Weather-related or resource unavailable
Gray — Information not available
