Filtering Timeline Events

Combining Filters
You can combine multiple filters to create precise views of your Timeline. For example, filter by "Standup Update" summaries from "VS Code" to see only standup summaries that included VS Code activities.
Combining filters helps you find very specific workflow moments. Start with a broad filter (like event type) and then narrow it further with source or application filters.
