The map (the default) shows the parts and the messages between them:

A request that misses the cache, then hits the cache

The map and the rail (rail: true) adds one row for each message, with its payload:

An order checkout: the map of the parts, and a rail of the messages under it

The rail only (rail: "only") shows the order of the messages without the map:

The checkout messages as a rail, without the map

Swimlanes (lanes: true) give each role a lane and put the steps left to right in time order:

The refund process across Customer, Support and Finance

A long swimlane process wraps into blocks at the page width. An edge between two blocks becomes two labeled stubs:

A returns process in blocks of lanes, with labeled stubs between the blocks

The timeline (timeline: true) draws a roadmap with one track per team, dated bars, milestones and a today line:

A Q4 roadmap with three tracks, milestones and a today line

A state lifecycle marks the first state with mark: "start" and each final state with mark: "end":

An order status lifecycle with a start dot and two end rings
