How to sequence resources
In this tutorial, you will learn how to sequence a resource by using the milestone timeline.

Summary
Note: Previously, a resource was sequenced by specifying an install and remove date from a calendar.
- Access the Properties panel, shown while actively editing a resource
- This will automatically open upon placing a new resource from the library (under Resources & Equipment), or by editing an existing resource
- Under 'Map to Milestones', define the duration of visibility by specifying the milestone "From" and "To" when it will show
- By default, From will be selected as the milestone on which the resource is placed on
- By default, To will be selected as "End" i.e. visible until the final existing milestone
- Click the drop-down to select the milestones
- Click Done to implement changes
Things to know:
- The selected start and end milestones are inclusive, and the resource will be visible on those milestones
- If a resource is to be shown for the duration of one milestone, select from and to the same milestone
- The current active milestone is indicated by a 'dot' when selecting from the drop-down

Tips & Tricks:
- Use the key shortcut Ctrl + L/R arrow keys to change milestone while editing
- Use the 'x' in the milestone field to deselect the milestone
- From the dropdown:
- Use 'Set to Current' to select the current milestone
- Use 'Clear all' to deselect milestones and default to the first ("Beginning") and last ("End") milestones
- Note: The search bar will only return based on the name of milestones (not dates or index numbers)
