February 2024 Tips and Tricks

For these and more, view Tips and Tricks for February 2024

Date heading only shows letter on some pages
My date heading shows some months with the full name and others with an abbreviation.  Is there a way to make it consistent?

Symbol text not aligned
How can I get the numbers, which are symbol text to line up?  You can see that the first one is lower than the others.

Can’t remove picture
I’ve put together a schedule that contains imported (copy-and-paste) graphics.  For some reason, there is a graphic towards the top of my schedule that I can’t get rid of.  I can’t even click on it.  Any idea why?

Expand width of some column titles
I see some samples which appear to have some column entries spanning more than one column.  What’s the procedure to do this?

EV line takes a sharp drop
I have attached a file showing EV calculations I am doing for a project. I notice that the EV curve takes a dive after the current date“ or close to it. For the life of me I cannot understand this behavior.

Showing trends with a bar
Can Milestones’ bars show trends?  If so, how?

Create your own symbol dates
If you build custom date headings, can you get the symbol date format to correspond to those headings, rather than a specific calendar date?

Copy and Paste: one Excel column to Milestones
Can I select one column of information in Excel and paste that column into Milestones?

Unique ID
Is there a way to quickly see the Unique IDs on each symbol while I’m working on a Milestones chart?

Using Templates
Every time I start a new schedule, I format it the same way, including color scheme, toolbox choices, number of rows per  page, etc.  Is there an easier way?

Display Numerical Value
My calculation/indicator column is only showing the symbol indicator.  How do I get the numerical value to show as well?

Printing by Time Period
My schedule spans 12 months. I would like to print a separate sheet for every 3 months.
