Timeline Canvas Creator

Description

The Timeline Canvas Creator plugin simplifies the process of building timeline-structured canvases by automating the placement of cards. Instead of manually arranging each element, you can generate a full timeline by specifying a start date, end date, and interval. This functionality is especially useful for visualising chronological data, planning projects, or outlining historical events without the repetitive task of positioning cards one by one. The plugin integrates directly with the canvas feature, enabling quick setup through a command palette action or the ribbon. It caters to users who need organised visual timelines for workflows, research, or storytelling.
