Adjust task row height with automation
Is there a way to change the height of a row using Milestones Professional Automation?
Symbols above the bar
I am trying to show symbols above a bar, like this example. Can you tell me what the trick is?
Number of Vertical Links
How many vertical links can start from a single symbol?
For timing charts Heading frequency only goes to 60
We use milestones for schedules and also for machine timing charts. When doing timing charts, we usually use 1 day as equal to 1 second. When cycles are really short, then we use 1 day equal to 1 millisecond, so 1000 days is equal to 1 second. We have a header type (within Date Headings Dialog Box) of Daily 1,2,…30, 31,32,33… Even though the frequency settings allows entry of numbers above 60, it seems to not change anything on the header. So the time breakup in header for frequency of any value above 60 is always 0—-60—120—180…… and is not readable due to everything running together. Is there a way to change this so that the header is 0–250—500—750—1000?
Save version 2021 schedule in an earlier version’s format
My coworkers still have Milestones Professional 2019 and I need to share my schedule with them. How do I do this? I have version 2021.
Track deliveries
I have a schedule I am importing from Microsoft Project. Each time we do a delivery we have a task in Microsoft Project which has the word delivery. I would like to create a schedule which displays the delivery dates and also shows the total number of deliveries per month. Is anything like this possible?
Tasks omitted from curtain shading
When I use the curtain/shading option, certain tasks are omitted from the shading, why is this?
Move symbols ahead by 2 months
How can I move a group of symbols about 2 months to the right all at the same time?
Horizontal bar has white stripe
I am using Milestones Professional to build a chart for our management. The task bars I am inserting (which should be solid) have a white stripe through the middle of them. Here’s a picture.
Custom Headers and Footers
I need to display custom header and footer information on all pages of my schedule. Is this possible?
What can affect Fill to Status Date?
I have the Symbols: Fill to Status Date and Bars: Fill to Status Date options toggled on. However, it is not working. What could be disabling this feature?
Dashed line for symbol
I want my symbol to look like this. Is it possible?
Remove all baseline or status symbols
I want to remove all of the baseline symbols and status symbols on my schedule. Is there an easy way to do this?
Show curves and bars in DataGraph
I need to create a data graph with both bars and lines on the same DataGraph area. It appears that DataGraphs can either be bar graphs or line graphs, but not a mix. Suggestions?

Best way to set up a schedule for easy updating
What is the best way to approach creating a schedule in Milestones Professional so I can make global changes to symbols and horizontal bars currently on the schedule?
Can’t pick Project file name when refreshing
Usually when I go to refresh a Milestones Professional schedule from Project, I am asked to select the Microsoft Project file name. I have one schedule (only one!) which never prompts me to select a file and I wonder what’s going on. Any ideas?
Fiscal and calendar quarters
How can I have fiscal quarters and calendar year quarters, as shown above?
Hyperlink from schedule to document
I need to add a page of text explaining why any scheduled date has changed. Is there a way I can link “Milestones” to a “Word” document?
Find a string in one of my Milestones files
I often forget where I put my Milestones schedules and have trouble finding them. Help!
Remove password on my Milestones schedules
I would like to remove the password on all my Milestones Professional charts. I have approximately 12. Do I really have to send them to you to remove the password.
Password protecting your schedules
We keep our schedules in a shared folder on our server. Can we control who has access to each Milestones schedule?
Filter to bring in just part of a Microsoft Project plan
When I am importing an Microsoft Project plan, Microsoft Project loads all tasks (and Milestones) of the plan. That’s too much because the plan consists more than 2500 tasks. Only the major work packages, not every task are relevant to the report I want from Milestones Professional. Is there a way to only load certain tasks such as up to level 3?

Line thickness in PDF files
Why are the line weights so heavy when creating a PDF? It really makes the schedule hard to read and is not good for presentations. Is there something I can do to fix this?
Bar colors change unexpectedly after refresh
I have a schedule with several joined bars. P3 is supposed to be filled blue but stays white. Then, after I refresh, the bar for P2 disappears and P3 fills as expected:
See bar status color in toolbox
My bars are all the same color before status, but they have a different after status color, how do I tell them apart in the toolbox?
Get list of all Project UIDs in Milestones schedule
I’m using Symbol Links to an MS Project file. Is there a way to get a list in Milestones Pro of all the UIDs I am linked to?
Numbers or letters inside symbols
I need to have numbers inside my triangle symbols. Right now I am using symbol text and the text is pretty small and hard to re-size when the symbol sizes change. Is there an easier way to do this?
Force a symbol to be “on top”
I have two different symbols that appear on the same day. I want to be able to choose which symbol appears on top. Is this possible?
Need to change UIDs in Milestones as Project UIDs have all changed
A significant number of tasks in my Project file have been reassigned new UID’s, and I need to manually re-establish them in Milestones Pro. I can see them in the automation tag report, but is there a way to mass-delete them, without having to click every symbol and remove the tags manually?
Change the font size of many symbols at once
I want to change the font size of all symbols of a certain type. Do I need to select the symbols individually and change them one by one?

Distorted symbols in PowerPoint

Link a Microsoft Project schedule to my Milestones chart
I generated a Milestones Professional schedule from scratch based on the data in one of my Project Files. (I didn’t import them.) So now that I’ve done this, is there a way to link the symbols on the schedule back to the right tasks in Project so I can later update the Milestones symbols and bars whenever the dates in Project change?
Legend and DataGraph Placement
Is it possible to have a Legend and DataGraph(s) shown at the same time?
Lines on ends of bars not showing
When I print my schedule, the lines at the ends of the bars are missing. What could be causing this? I am using symbol shape #28 (blank symbol). On the screen the bars look fine.
Move a symbol and keep the same date
When I move a symbol to another task row, the date changes. I really don’t want it to change. Is there a way to prevent this?
Move Milestones to primary monitor
I am using Remote Desktop to access my computer at work. Sometimes my Milestones software is not visible. I think it’s because it is on my secondary monitor. Is there any way to force it to my primary monitor for Remote Desktop?
Move one symbol only
When I move one symbol on my schedule, other symbols are moving too. Help! I only want to move one symbol.
