Re: Source Template for Obituary

You could take a look at a video I did some time ago on auto source citation (this pre-dated templates) and it deals with a US obituary. It may give you another way to enter them. https://youtu.be/PrBOcHAwc1o

FH stores my window layout settings fine. Can you post a screenshot of your layout that is not being saved? Do you have a project or are you just opening the gedcom from FTM?
