        • Object set: inputted object set definition that will be displayed for a timeline layer. The object set definition must be of a single object type.
        • Load data from scenario: select the Scenario to load data for a timeline layer. This input also affects what objects appear and their respective order in the Object Table.
        • Date / timestamp property: select the date or timestamp property to be used for visualizing and ordering the objects by in the Timeline widget.
        • Event title
          • Object title: sets the display title for the objects in the Timeline widget to be the object’s title.
          • Property title: sets the display title for the objects in the Timeline widget to a specified property.
          • Custom title: sets the display title for the objects in the Timeline to be custom-defined text.
