# Time line

Time line is a visual tool for database filtering. Moving its slider defines a year and the list of persons displayed are only people who lived in that year.

Time line is useful on data analysis and source processing—you can view only people who lived in an affected year. You can combine time line filtering with general person filtering by locations and names.

Note: In this mode the "Age" column shows age calculated relative to that year.
