FreeForm Text at an Angle
I would like to show Freeform Text Vertically down the right side of the schedule. Is this possible?

Place a date and time stamp as a footer
How can I place a date and time stamp on the schedule, in the lower left corner (as a footer?)

Make symbol text transparent for all symbols
Is there any way to setup Milestones so that every symbol always comes up in transparent? I have to change them constantly and would like to know how to set the default up permanently.

Indentation for outlining
When I increase the outline level of a task, the column text automatically indents, and the text no longer fits in the cell. How can I prevent this?

Import Microsoft Project files directly into PowerPoint
I want to bring my Microsoft Project data into Milestones and then create a PowerPoint presentation. Is there a quick, easy way to do this?

Show date and text on same line for a symbol
I have a few symbols on my schedule for which I would like to display both the start date AND the text on the same line on the left side of the symbol. Is there a way to combine the symbol text and the date?
