How to display data as a timeline in a table with correct timezone?

I want to display my data as a timeline in a table. However, I noticed that the information that I'm analyzing has a timestamp that corresponds to a different timezone. I want to be able to display the time in my current timezone, which is US/Central. Is there a shortcut to modify the time? I thought about just subtracting the hours, but I don't know how to take into account when it is daylight saving time.

Go to <Your Name> -> Preferences -> Time zone and set it to whatever you like.

Times still don't match. Is there another way to change the time through the search?

You are looking at the wrong thing. The raw text of the event will not change but notice that there are 3 fields in your search results: i, Time, and Event. The one that adjusts is Time.
