I’m trying to set up the timeline to work like how Chubai’s chattree feature works, where every new message is a circle, and you can switch between any message branches and swipes circles on the chattree or create a new circle when a new reply is generated, using the arrows to navigate between swipes, no matter where in the chat the message is. There doesn’t seem to be any arrows to switch between earlier swipes once there is a reply. How do I Add create the features/functions I’m wanting to implement, if they already exist? I figured something like the a custom quick reply, except triggered automatically by an added < and > on each message in the chat to create and navigate between swipes and chattree nodes and branches.

Also, is it possible to add customization option for each character’s chat circle nodes to be their profile picture or upload a specific picture? I fiddled around with the customization settings but didn’t see an option to upload a picture for the character nodes.

If these features aren’t already in timelines, or some other SillyTavern extension, could these please be added as an update to Timelines extension to make it more user friendly and intuitive?
