The Timeline API lets component developers add activity items to the WinGate Management Console Timeline. You can add time-ranged and instantaneous Timeline events and register types and subtypes that can be colour coded by users in the user interface.

Enable Options

When you register a TimelineSourceInterface with TimelineRegisterSource the framework uses this interface to ask you for enable/disable options that are available for your source. These options are displayed inside the user interface and allow the user to turn your source off and on.

If you do not register a TimelineSourceInterface you will not be able to provide enable/disable options to users but you can still generate Timeline activity with TimelineStartActivity.
