Help finding “invisible” symbols
I have deleted some symbols from a schedule , but there are several blank symbols scattered around and I’m having trouble finding them.
Vertical connectors in the legend
Can I show a vertical connector in the legend?
Want the line to appear on top of the bar when graphed
I would like to have the red line appear on top of the blue bars. How is this accomplished?
Hide indicator symbols on blank lines
I have indicator symbol values that are “0”. How do I get Milestones Professional NOT to draw an indicator symbol on lines that are blank?
Add, Move, and Delete Freeform Text
Is there a way to add another header to the chart other than the title?
Copy the structure of a schedule only
Could you tell me if it is possible to copy the structure of a schedule without the data?.
Specifying print size
I have the chart size set to 7.5″ horizontal and 5.5.” vertical. However, when I print the chart, it fills the entire page, rather than printing at the size I have specified. How can I get it to print using my specifications?
Standard curtains for all my projects
I would like the same curtains to appear on all of my schedules. How can I do this?
Special symbol needed
I would really like to show a symbol that looks like this one on my schedule. Is it possible?
Show percent symbol on a task row
I see that it is possible to add a pie symbol to a task row as a normal symbol. Can you tell me how to set this up?</p
