Hi Bob, It just occurred to me that the "Simile Timeline" might be better suited to your needs as it seems more event focused. It gives a rolling time line where events past and present can be easily found, includes graphics as icons and dialogues. I have seen a couple of TWs with a plugin installed and it sort of working. I haven't tried to install it so can't offer any help. Anyway here are some links that I found:
