Good news - I found an XML based dynamic timeline generator. I’ve plugged
in a couple dates on my local machine, and I’m testing for how to deal
with events and spans aesthetically. I’ll post it when I have a bit more
info filled in, then we can start seeing it come together.

Here is my working file of the timeline:

It’s not 100% to what’s in the spreadsheet, but it gives a good idea of
what’s possible.

I agree with you on each tool being a line, or at least groupings of tools
being together. However I haven’t figured out how to get the timeline to do
that just yet. It seems to me that it takes the next available space for a
line.
You post helped me clear up how to add versions - it would require a separate
event w/start/end for each version. Lots of extra coding, but definitely more
informative.
I’m going to start by continuing to fill the large spans just to get the big
picture. Then, we can play with how to get everything nicely in the rows we
want and at that point add individual versions.
Feel free to look at the Timeline documentation and see if you can find ways
to accomplish this. I’ve poked around quite a bit and yesterday I sent their
team an email, so we’ll see. I’ll look around some more myself, too.

I could not get the prog to do what I want.
It places the events on the line it wants, not like I want. I did not find a way
to tell the prog that I want some events on the same line.
I think for what we want to do this prog is not the right choice!
