私はArne Meierのパッケージを使用しておりtimeline、タイムラインコネクタの高さを制御したいのですが、GitHubタイムライン コネクタの色をカスタマイズするオプションが利用可能です。添付の画像をタイプセットするには、次のコードを検討してください。
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{timeline}
\definecolor{Wyellow}{cmyk}{0.15,0.05,0.84,0}
\definecolor{WrandomI}{cmyk}{0.66,0.07,0.13,0.0}
\definecolor{WrandomII}{cmyk}{0.33,0.04,0.44,0.05}
\definecolor{WrandomIII}{cmyk}{0.55,0.15,0.54,0.0}
\definecolor{WrandomIV}{cmyk}{0.44,0.65,0.14,0.1}
\begin{document}
For changing the height of the timeline connectors by using the \verb|timeline| package.\\
\begin{timeline}[Wyellow][WrandomI][WrandomII][WrandomIII][WrandomIV] %where WrandomIV is the color of the timeline connectors.
\timebar[3]{|}{0}{2000}{2013}{1}{|}
\entry{2002}{entry}{no opacity}
\entryshift{2003}{entryshift}{no opacity}{4mm}
\flipentry{2004}{flipentry}{no opacity}
% \flipentry{2005}{Anotherflipentry}{no opacity}
% \flipentry{2005}{Anotherflipentry-I}{no opacity}
\flipentry{2005}{NoOverlapIsExpected}{no opacity}
\flipentryshift{2005}{flipentryshift}{no opacity}{4mm}
\entry[0.5]{2008}{entry}{opacity}
\entryshift[0.5]{2009}{entryshift}{opacity}{4mm}
\flipentry[0.5]{2010}{flipentry}{opacity}
\flipentryshift[0.2]{2011}{flipentryshift}{opacity}{4mm}
\end{timeline}
\end{document}
次のような結果が生まれます。
期待されるのは、手書きの絵が描かれたタイムラインの取得です。
タイムライン コネクタの高さを制御できれば、重なりを避けることができます。コネクタ ラインは同じアイデアを表すため、ドット (手書きの図ではコネクタ ライン) はドットである必要はありません。タイムラインを取得するために使用されるスタイル ファイルは次のとおりです。

タイムラインの両側（上と下）にラベルを付けるという側面はすでに考慮されていますが、手書きの図にはそれが存在しません。ラベルの角度を変更するには、スタイル ファイルに変更を加える必要があります。
この質問を投稿する主な理由は、ラベルが重ならないようにタイムライン コネクタの高さを調整する方法についての推奨事項を得ることです (たとえば、このパッケージを使用すると、同じ年に同じ位置に 2 つのイベントを作成することはできません)。パッケージにはコンパイル可能なマニュアルもあり、マニュアルには関連すると思われるコマンドが記載されていますが、このコマンドを使用してラベルの高さを制御することはまだ完了していません。
\maxof{\heightof{#3}}{\heightof{#4}}+1.5mm
timelineのスタイル ファイルにいくつかの変更 (「connectors」という単語のスペルの使用など) が加えられました。timeline.sty望ましい結果を得るためにファイルを変更する提案があれば、ぜひお知らせください。
乾杯！
