EventTimeline (Type of variable) In french: EvénementTimeline
The EventTimeline type is used to define the advanced characteristics of an event. This event will be dispayed inside a TimeLine control. The characteristics of this event can be defined and changed using different WLanguage properties. The corresponding event can then be used with WLanguage functions for Timeline control management. Remark: For more details on the declaration of this type of variable and the use of WLanguage properties, see Declaring a variable.

Remarks Properties specific to TimelineEvent variables The following properties can be used to handle an event: | | | | Property name | Type used | Effect |

If this property is not specified, the event is associated with no category. | | Content | Character string | Detailed description of the event. The content is displayed in the TimeLine control. If this property is not specified, the event has no description. | | End | Integer | End of event. This property must use the same unit as the one used to display the TimeLine control (second, millisecond or microsecond).
This property must necessarily be specified. | | ID | Character string | Identifier associated with the event. Allows you to store the identifier of an element that must be associated with the element in order to use it later in programming. For example, this identifier can correspond to the identifier of a record in a database. | | Image | Character string | Image associated with the event. This image is displayed in the TimeLine control (in addition to the logo that represents an important element if necessary).
This property can correspond to: - the path to an image accessible from the current computer,

- an Image control containing an image,
- a drawing performed in an Image control with the drawing functions and saved in memory.
If this property is not specified, the event has no associated image.Remark: An internal window must be used to display an image in the event. The simple style (proposed by default) cannot be used to display an image. | | Importance | Integer | Importance of the event. If this property is equal to or greater than 1, an icon (  ) will be displayed in the TimeLine control to indicate an important event. If this property is not specified, its value is set to 0. | | Note | Character string | Note associated with the event. If this property is not specified, no note is associated with the event. | | Repetition | Repetition variable | Advanced parameters of repetition. This property is taken into account only if the WithRepetition property is set to True. | | Start | Integer | Start of event. This property must use the same unit as the one used to display the TimeLine control (second, millisecond or microsecond).
This property must necessarily be specified. | | Title | Character string | Title of the event. The title is displayed in the Timeline control. If this property is not specified, the event has no title. | | Tooltip | Character string | Tooltip displayed when the event is hovered.
