Time line fork

[tommVS2MB]

Has it ever been discussed or considered to provide a forked time line? That is a time line that goes in two directions after a point. I think it would simplify some parametric flows and create other possibilities while improving the readability of the flow.
It could simply always fork or based upon a parameter name?/value conditionally follow only one fork direction.

Have you experimented with Derive?

I found derive I think; a 3d math plotting program. But I don't know how
to relate that to a f360 timeline fork.

Uhhm, nope 😉

 
Also, just because the timeline is displayed in a linear arrangement does not mean it is necessarily linear in how geometry is constructed.

Yes, that is true.
Each item on the time line is something that is not a descendant (sketch
or import or ...) or is a descendant of a prior item.
Maybe a branched timeline would make descendency clearer or maybe it
wouldn't have value. Maybe instead "go to progenitor" for an item;
progenitor:what I descended from. I have had that question before.
