Thanks for the clarification.

Just noticed that the Splash screen (or intro screen) used when running the Ancestral Sources Data Entry Plug-in, still says V4.7, even though I am running 5.3.

Many thanks for the confirmation and explanation

I've been doing quite a lot of editing of the Emigration and Immigration facts. Now that I've finished, I've spotted an issue I just want to check. I've created an emigration for a lady, and added her husband, and her brother as fellow travellers. In the Individual Records window, the lady has an em...

Thanks, seems a sensible way forward.

I made nor make no comment on the number, I was just interested in what size the company was.

As you say, unit price is not high.

I suspect like some users, I have no real plan for output. My challenge is the hunt for data, and the ability to source/verify it. I do know however that I will not be producing DVD's, a book, or a website. I am interested in Family History as a hobby for my own benefit, Any benefit for others is in...

Not quite sure what I expected, but CP's latest accounts, submitted Nov 19 for yr to 31 Mar 19 records that they had an
average of 3 employees during the year!

I'd like to follow up a post by Helen in this topic. 17791|New user requesting confirmation that I am following best practice I like the idea of dealing with military service in the way she suggested, as it seems to simplify matters significantly. I did have a look at the downloaded (I think) Milita...

Thanks for confirming my thoughts. Reported it to Calico Pie.

I needed to delete a few Media today and spotted a strange behaviour. 2020-05-30_10-07-13.jpg When I click on the red X, the pop-up dialog box appears, and the focus is on the top box "Unlink only". Since I wanted to delete, I pressed the down arrow on the keyboard, but the result was that the focus...

Thanks I was looking at the paragraph above. Makes sense now.

I've got a diagram set up as 100% scaling, with page width 44.8cm & height 411.02cm. pdf.jpg Both these dimensions appear to me to be within those specified in how_to:creating_a_single_page_pdf_of_a_diagram|> Single Page PDF of a Diagram and yet when I ouput, I'm getting a two page document. If I ch...

Ok thanks I misunderstood what part 2 was. Thanks

I've added another item to the Property Box, but so far I can't make two items share the same line. I can't see anything in the help file but ....

Thanks

Thanks for comments, I will look to switch to Nicknames.

Given Name used is already well used in my tree

Thanks for the answer and the explanation. I got that working perfectly for what I want. nick.jpg However it has raised a second question, in that I have probably been mis-using the Add Name field, but my wife and I have just had a great debate as to whether I'm actually discussing Names or Nickname...

Is there any way for the Focus Window (or the Property Box) to display any AKA names. Whilst many of these aka's are obvious (eg Bob for Robert), many are not (eg Dick as an aka for George, Bobby for Henry as two brothers out of 6 all but 1 with obscure aka's) and I can never remember who is who in ...

Hi

Thanks for the response!

You were absolutely spot on in your thinking. I can go and delete it now. I set it up when I was adjusting Sentences. I will check it is not used anywhere before I delete.

Many thanks.

By chance, I've spotted that in the Individual Events section of the Query Window, I have two similar entries titled Death & Death 2. Death.jpg They appear to be almost identical apart from Death 2 not having an entry for Descriptor. So far I have not opened all the other entries to see if there is ...

Thank you Jane

That was exactly what the problem was. I must admit that is a completely new one on me. I'd never have suspected that.


Thanks again

Two days ago, I was quite happily using AS to enter a mix of Birth , death etc records. In every case, the first thing I did was to click on Add Images at the top right. Then I simply dragged the relevant jpg file from screen 2 onto the appropriate area on the AS Image Viewer Screen. Yesterday, when...

I have had a response from Calico Pie regarding the initial issue of a short form for place. Their solution seems to work The FACT tag only allows reference to tags which are common to all fact types - which _PLAC is not. So _PLAC is not supported as a sub-tag of FACT in a data reference. I see from...

I have reported the inconsistency as a bug.

I have also registered the issue that there should be no Override Templates included at installation, and that if an override is in use, it should be highlighted clearly on the relevant screen.

Sorry, but you are conflating the two problems here. The first point is related to the use of Short place name for the two places in the Emigration fact. You have confirmed that the bug report should be extended to confirm the issue in the overide for the principal fact. I will report that as well. ...
