2.2.6.3.2 Timeline Styles

  • Article

Timeline styles specify the formatting to apply to visual components of timeline views (section 2.2.15.2).

The style attribute of the CT_Timeline element ([MS-XLSX] section 2.6.111) specifies the timeline style to be applied. A timeline style can be either built-in or user-defined. Built-in timeline styles are specified in CT_Timeline element. User-defined timeline styles are specified in the collection of records beginning with BrtBeginTimelineStyles (section 2.4.289).

A timeline style is an extension of a table style (section 2.2.6.3). A user-defined timeline style is specified by a BrtBeginTimelineStyle (section 2.4.287) record and the BrtBeginTableStyle (section 2.4.280) record it references. A timeline style consists of a collection of table style elements (section 2.2.6.2.2). For user-defined timeline styles, these elements are specified by the collection of BrtTimelineStyleElement (section 2.4.838) records following BrtBeginTimelineStyle and the table style elements specified by the user-defined table style referenced by stName field of the BrtBeginTimelineStyle record.
