Re: Report sources not showing some fields
It Thank you for your advice. Do you think that the 2021 plugin mentioned in the responses, and shown below, will work with fh version 7? I had a quick look in the Plugin store and couldn't see it.

Re: Report sources not showing some fields
Change citation template for an existing source (20337) may help, or Mike may have a better idea.

BTW: Once you create a Query it is immediately saved. You would have to specifically delete it.
You can use any existing Query to interrogate the Fields DRA without affecting the Query.

Re: Problems with Individual Tabs
I was wondering about video driver updates. It's worth checking you've got the most up-to-date versions of the specific drivers for your device (not the generic Microsoft ones).

Re: Getting Display Resolution
I usually set the size of a Dialog to HALF x HALF, knowing that will fit on the screen, and have scrollbars where needed, plus the ability to resize the dialog.

Re: filling out a source template
Just to add, to record the equivalent of 'Source of a source', I would put 'Ancestry.com' in the URL field of the template and 'Berlin, Germany, Births, 1874-1908' in the Collection field. The template needs modifying to include those in the footnote, however.

Re: Question about citations added to Media records
If you have (say) a photograph of an individual, you can use the citation to record its source etc. 'Betty Boop provided this via Ancestry; I don't know the original photographer and am on the fence about whether this if Great Aunt Ada or not...'
