Refresh text file missing
I upgraded to Milestones Professional 2025.  My old version (2023) used to put a file with the refreesh results in the Documents folder.  It doesn’t seem to be there in 2025.

Hide baseline summary bars
How can one use baseline task bars for sub-tasks but not display them at the summary level?

Allocate manpower for an upcoming project
I want to be able to determine how many people I might need for an upcoming project.  Does Milestones (Professional) have any capability in this area?

Gridlines showing on top of logo
I am trying to make my schedule look better.  I added some graphics but the horizontal lines and shading are showing up on top of the pictures.  Is there anything I can do about this?

Change fields of all symbol tags
I have a schedule that is linked to a MSProject file for Start and Finish Dates. I’d like to convert all of the lines I already have linked to Baseline Start and Baseline Finish instead. How can I do this in 1 step instead of line by line?

Add a missing Microsoft Project field to a schedule
I imported my Microsoft Project schedule but forgot one of the project fields.  Can I add it in?

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?

Work with dense schedules
I am trying to move and better organize the symbols and symbol text on in my schedule, which is very crowded.  Do you have any suggestions?
