To create a timeline, go to the Tools menu, and select "Create Timeline". A timeline will be created for the collection that is open on your desktop. You can navigate laterally on the timeline, change the default option "date published" to "date added" or "date modified", or highlight a specific search term in one of the 4 colours provided.
