Reference 427
Title Hard copy diagrams cross boundary referencing
Category Diagrams
Description CLOSED - Merged into WL#289

Research reference copies or distribution copies are often more
easily handled as multi-sheet packs, but this format can be more
difficult to navigate due to lack of clarity of branch routings across
page boundaries.

A solution to this problem could be to apply a technique used in
industrial Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) or computer
function charts where interconnections across page boundaries
are cross-referenced at both the source and destination page
boundaries.

Such cross referencing is essential as charts can often include
several hundred pages.

For Family Historian, the reference could comprise the
interconnecting page and person ID numbers. A software switch
could be included for printouts where such cross-referencing is
not required.

As far as I am aware, there is currently no family history software
that provides such a solution, unless someone can advise otherwise?
