+Currently, HTML tags such as <em>, <strong>, <sup>, <a>, <ul>, and <li> are supported in Flowchart and Class diagram labels but not in Timeline diagrams. This change introduces support for basic HTML formatting in Timeline labels, enabling richer text formatting and better usability for multi-line content like descriptions, footnotes, and styled annotations

+> `static` `optional` **prepareStackTrace**: (`err`, `stackTraces`) => `any`
 
-Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/@types+node\@22.17.2/node_modules/@types/node/globals.d.ts:161
+Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/@types+node\@22.13.5/node_modules/@types/node/globals.d.ts:143
 
-The `Error.stackTraceLimit` property specifies the number of stack frames
+Optional override for formatting stack traces
-collected by a stack trace (whether generated by `new Error().stack` or
-`Error.captureStackTrace(obj)`).
-
-The default value is `10` but may be set to any valid JavaScript number. Changes
-will affect any stack trace captured _after_ the value has been changed.
-
-If set to a non-number value, or set to a negative number, stack traces will
-not capture any frames.
-
-#### Inherited from
-
-`Error.stackTraceLimit`
-
-## Methods
-
-### captureStackTrace()
-
-> `static` **captureStackTrace**(`targetObject`, `constructorOpt`?): `void`
-
-Defined in: node_modules/.pnpm/@types+node\@22.17.2/node_modules/@types/node/globals.d.ts:145
-
-Creates a `.stack` property on `targetObject`, which when accessed returns
-a string representing the location in the code at which
-`Error.captureStackTrace()` was called.
-
-```js
-const myObject = {};
-Error.captureStackTrace(myObject);
-myObject.stack; // Similar to `new Error().stack`
-```
-
-The first line of the trace will be prefixed with
-`${myObject.name}: ${myObject.message}`.
-
-The optional `constructorOpt` argument accepts a function. If given, all frames
-above `constructorOpt`, including `constructorOpt`, will be omitted from the
-generated stack trace.
-
-The `constructorOpt` argument is useful for hiding implementation
-details of error generation from the user. For instance:
-
-```js
-function a() {
-  b();
-}
-
-function b() {
-  c();
-}
-
-function c() {
-  // Create an error without stack trace to avoid calculating the stack trace twice.
-  const { stackTraceLimit } = Error;
-  Error.stackTraceLimit = 0;
-  const error = new Error();
-  Error.stackTraceLimit = stackTraceLimit;
-
-  // Capture the stack trace above function b
-  Error.captureStackTrace(error, b); // Neither function c, nor b is included in the stack trace
-  throw error;
-}
-
-a();
-```
