Combo Toolbox
Symbols and horizontal bars are combined in symbol+bar+symbol
combinations. By using one of the small plus tools on the left to
select a combination, you can quickly click-drag-and-drop a start
symbol, bar, and end symbol.
Symbols and bars can still be added independently.
Standard Toolbox
Symbols and Bars are separated.
Symbols can be used by themselves or
in any combination with bars and other
symbols.
Flexible Symbology
Toolboxes
The Milestones Simplicity toolbox contains 3 tools, 32 symbols, 16 horizontal Bars, 8 Vertical Links, and 3
drawing tools to quickly build any schedule using the click-drag-and-drop method.
The Plus, Arrow, and Text tools exemplify the intuitive nature of Milestones Simplicity: Need to add a symbol or
Bar? First click the Plus tool. Need to move a symbol on the schedule? First click the Arrow tool. Need to type
text? First click the Text tool.
Two styles of toolboxes are available:
Use the drawing tools to draw lines, arrows, circles and boxes. Format the color background, shape outline,
fade effects and more.
Sidebar
The optional sidebar is an extra toolbar anchored to the left or right side of the
Milestones Simplicity window. The sidebar contains the toolbox (which is normally free-
fl oating) and a user-defi ned list of shortcut buttons for a variety of activities, including
navigating, sharing, and publishing your schedule.
