Shifting milestones in Apollo
Hello there,
Milestones are a central part of Apollo. Sometimes I feel that we should discourage the use of specific dates in tasks, and highlight the fact that the "real" deadlines in projects are set by their milestones.
For example, users forget that tasks might not have a date set for them, and therefore won't appear in the calendar. On the other hand, milestones always have a deadline, and always appear in the calendar of users assigned to that project.
Since milestones are very important, and projects normally have several milestones, we have now added the option where changing a milestone's date will also shift subsequent milestones in the same project.
You can also tick a box so that any milestone automatically changed won't fall on a week-end (which is handy, as nobody wants an important deadline to happen on a Sunday!).
Finally, as an eye-candy bonus, milestones that are not connected to any tasks have a slightly different progress bar:
Enjoy!
