Changing layout settings

You can change the layout design of fact and text boxes in your timeline. You can choose whether to display the date portion of a fact box or whether to display text. You can also add images (pictures, drawings, icons) to the text area of both fact and text boxes. For fact boxes, you can also choose to display only an image and no text.
