    The add-in will automatically change the language of all dates on your timeline. In addition, the task duration counts and Today marker will also be translated.

Advanced tip: With Timeline, you can set up custom timeline themes with your preferred language, and any timeline using those themes will automatically show dates and durations in said language.
