I am very interested in purchasing Family Historian. I have been a regular Ancestry.com user but now want to progress to producing a Wall chart. I want the wall chart design to include lines connecting people, but NOT BOXES. I have attached a sample of how I would like the wall chart to appear. Can you please confirm that Family Historian will produce charts that resemble this one.
Thank you

Re: Wall Charts
Hi Richard,
Yes, FH can print similar charts, although I am not sure if it can have a background like the one you have in your example. I am sure someone will come along and confirm that. You could download the 30 day free trial and give it a whizz to see if it suits you and whether the charts are what you want.

Re: Wall Charts
Yes, and to answer GeneSniper's question you can have a background picture, with various 'fade' levels. (Diagram Options>General tab>Background has a drop-down menu, the last of which is picture.)

Re: Wall Charts
Welcome to the FHUG Richard.
Here is a Diagram I've just knocked up quickly with a crude background image as an example.
You can choose any background image, choose a variety of box styles, choose the text & events to include, whether to include photos or not, add box icons like your ships, and many other options.
See fhugdownloads:contents:my_family_group_tree|> Diagram Type ~ Family Group Tree for a different example.
FH can produce a single-page PDF file of a Diagram Chart up to 200" x 200" or 5080 mm x 5080mm that can be printed.
