Re: 1921 England Census Military template

Sorry I should have mentioned that It overwrote the original template that can then easily be restored once you have entered the military census. I had looked at the XML file and didn't find an obvious way to differentiate this to the standard England 1921 Census. Thanks @Mike for suggesting changin...

1921 England Census Military template

I came across a census page for one of my relatives in the military in 1921. The military census pages are different to the usual Englan census pages so I modified the template to suit. Attached here in case anyone else needs it. (Note: this is the latest version of the template as at 10 December 20...

A little anomaly in 7.6.4 in a Win 10 VM.

If you enter a Note before you do Auto Text you get a warning that it will overwrite an existing entry when there is nothing there.

Unfortunately no luck with v7.6.4. Clicking continue just brings up the same error when you try to access an individual.

Error with v7.6.3 under Crossover on Mac

Nick

I have v7.6.3 up and running on Crossover on a Mac. Yesterday it was working fine with the same Gedcom. Today I am getting the below error. I have the debug details saved if they help.

The last update to this plugin removed the ability for editors to have access to the icon. I have done a code change and that icon is now available to you and the other editors.

Re: Testing Ancestral Sources v7.5.3

I know what you mean, but it is standard behaviour for a grid like this to highlight based on the actual column header being clicked rather than a cell within the grid, even it the cell represents a heading. This is how Excel works for example. To implement the change I'd also have to alter the way...

Re: New FindMyPast Premium Subscription

Finally got my subscription sorted with FMP Customer Service so back to the proper Ultimate but it is showing the upgrade to Premium at $45.17 including a 15% discount not the £19.99 that has been mentioned. It seems that FMP has various prices for everyone which seems odd.

Re: Testing Ancestral Sources v7.5.3

I can confirm that the problem I reported with templated sources is now fixed.

A UI comment to consider:

If I want to delete a column I need to select the grey box above the yellow column header box more naturally I would expect to highlight the column name and not the box above it.

Just FYI neither the 64bit or 32bit will run in the current version of PlayOnMac. The 64bit says it is not running on a 64bit processor and will not install. The 32bit installs but crashes on running.
