For example in diagrams that contain a number of siblings (e.g. All Relatives Diagrams) the siblings appear in the order of entry. Similarly, spouses and facts will retain the order of entry unless you adjust them. Don’t be fooled by the Facts tab that by default lists facts in Date order regardless of their database order.<\/p>\n
Methods for Reordering<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n In many cases the ‘Normal Timeframe’ (version 6 and later) will improve ordering.<\/p>\n Time<\/span>\u00a0frame<\/span>s may also be used when Family Historian orders events and attributes – for example, in reports, or in the Facts tab of the Property Box. Where ordering can be determined by dates alone, these will always be given priority. But suppose there is no date, or none that determines the ordering? For example, a person’s baptism, birth and death might all be recorded simply as 1910.\u00a0Time<\/span>\u00a0frame<\/span>s will be used to ensure that the birth is listed first, followed by the baptism, and then death.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Finally, time<\/span>\u00a0frame<\/span>s are also used in the Facts tab of the Property Box, to determine whether or not age information should be calculated, if not provided. Age information is always calculated unless the\u00a0Time<\/span>\u00a0Frame<\/span> is Birth, Pre-Birth, Post-Death or none.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
