Preferences Dialog: Property Dialog Tab

Fields

Default Size When Opening Property Dialog

The Property Dialog has 3 sizes: small, large and full. ‘Full’ means that the Property Dialog is in Large Mode and that the Source Pane is visible. You can specify how you want the Property Dialog to open, by default, in 3 contexts:

  1. When you simply open the Properties dialog for a given diagram node (box)
  2. When you click and drag on a diagram node to add a relative for that person (Diagram-based Editing). The Property Dialog always opens to allow you to enter the person’s name and other details.
  3. All other contexts
Display Spouse Note in Main Tab of Property Dialog When displaying records for Individuals, the Main tab of the Property Dialog also displays information about the Individual’s spouses, if any (and children, if any). If you wish the first record note for each spouse to be displayed in the Main tab, check this option. The note will appear instead of the spouse’s place of death. By default, this option is unchecked.
Property Dialog Captions Configure how captions are displayed in the Property Dialog. See Property Dialog Captions.
