Today, we're stoked to introduce the arrival of **Milestones** to all Aphex Projects ⭐ But that's not all! April also brought massive improvements to **linking tasks**. The new **Link Search** finds what you're looking for in a flash, and the mighty new Link Button on the Gantt will allow you to **create any link**, **from anywhere**.   ## Milestones and Target Dates ![Aphex Milestones (Blog Quality)](https://blog.aphex.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Aphex%20Milestones%20(Blog%20Quality).gif?width=760&height=571&name=Aphex%20Milestones%20(Blog%20Quality).gif) ###### 1. Create Milestones It's finally here! You can now create **Milestones** directly inside Aphex, or import them from P6, Asta, or MS Project. ###### 2 - Set Target Dates Plus, connect your team to the bigger picture with **Milestone** **Target Dates** - as everyone reviews their plan, they'll see in **real-time** if their individual updates are pushing you towards the target, or away from it. ###### 3 - Milestones Panel The new Milestones Panel will **automatically build** **the** **history** of where each Milestone has **slipped or improved over time**, giving you a week-by-week comparison of how you’re tracking. ###### 4 - Export And it’s not just bottled up in Aphex - you can drop all the data out to a CSV 😎 5 - Improved Critical Path Instead of highlighting all Critical Paths to all Milestones, you can now pick & choose the specific paths you need visible at any time.

Introducing the new **Successor & Predecessor search**. Loaded with plenty of filters and a clever search bar, locating and connecting tasks (and Milestones!) from opposite ends of the plan has never been easier. ## Create Links from Anywhere ## ![Aphex Link Button Gantt](https://blog.aphex.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Aphex%20Link%20Button%20Gantt.png?width=680&height=510&name=Aphex%20Link%20Button%20Gantt.png) And to help celebrate the arrival of the new link search, we've put loads of extra power into linking directly on the Gantt as well. Until today, trying to draw a link between two tasks sometimes meant dragging lines all the way across the page(!) But now, there are no interruptions, no wild lines, just drag and drop onto the 'Link Button' and you're away.  ## Similar posts Product ### [What's New in Aphex: April 2023](https://blog.aphex.co/post/whats-new-in-aphex-april-2023) Multi-Select: Edit, Duplicate or Link together heaps of tasks at once.
