Timeline allows you to view what your page will look like at a given time.

Timeline overview

The timeline takes the form of a bar representing the whole 24 hours of the selected day, from 00:00 AM to 12:59 PM (or to 23:59, in case of a 24-hour clock). Times when changes happened or will happen are marked with colored stripes (indicators) – green for past and purple for future changes.

Timeline

The time you are currently viewing is displayed on a slider on the timeline. You can move along the timeline by dragging this slider.

When you drag the slider to a future date and time, the Schedule blocks on the page will change to show the Content items which will be aired at the selected moment.
