**Inheritance:**
java.lang.Object
```
public class MilestoneHelper
```

MilestoneHelper to set property of milestone shape. Compatibility shell over [MilestoneProperties](../../com.aspose.diagram/milestoneproperties): the public API is unchanged (plus getters for the previously write-only properties), the cell access is delegated to the properties class, and [refreshMilestone(Shape)](../../com.aspose.diagram/milestonehelper\#refreshMilestone-Shape-) is rewritten:

    | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
    | /// Children without a master no longer crash the refresh (the old code dereferenced /// child.MasterShape unconditionally). ///                                                                                                                                              |
    | /// An existing local date field is updated in place; the old code appended a new /// field on every refresh. ///                                                                                                                                                             |
    | /// Positioning reads the timeline's left edge from XForm (the old code read /// XForm1D.BeginX, which does not exist on a 2-D group shape) and sorts the dated /// children with two parallel arrays instead of the SortedStringList, which has no /// Java counterpart. /// |
