Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] How to get captions to stick
June, It seems that a long time ago, it was found that a caption entered
from an **individuals** picture gallery would be used by the program for
THAT application only.. i.e. if you link a photo from an Individual's
Picture Gallery, the next screen to come up is the "Display Picture" input
area where you can enter the date & caption. That information will stick
for that particular linkage/use, but if you wish to link the same photo to
another event or another person, the caption and date will not be
included.
OTOH, if you use Tools > Picture Center, you will be presented with a
little different screen and you can enter your caption data and date
information here, and it will stick to any event or any other person that
you link the picture to.
I hope my poor ol' rememberer recalls this correctly..., but it's late and
I can't get up the gumption to test it myself.
Jim

Anne, tku for you reply and I am sorry I have been so long in getting
back to you. I didn't get any replies other than yours so everyone else
is seems is not having any trouble! I think I am doing the things you
mention but sometimes the captions stick and some times they don't. I am
beginning to think it is because I don't always click the 'attach' button
I can see that sometimes (when in the Picture Centre although you aren't
talking abt doing it from there I realise. I used to click the 'attached
pictures' tab and think that is enough.) I really don't quite know what I
do wrong. Anyway I will go on trying this, that and the other until I
know what I am doing wrong.
Sometimes I change the captions elsewhere and whether that is the problem
or not I still am not sure. Sometimes I have put in quite a screed in the
description box - and then the next time I look at the picture it isn't
there :--((
I have only just got back to concentrating on photos - and family history
come to that - as I have been in and out of hospital in the past year so
am not in my stride yet. Tks agn anyway.
June
June,
I am not sure if I saw a reply to your message.
What do you mean getting captions to stick?
When I want to add a photo to an individual, I click on the Picture
Galley
icon below their name,
Then I click on the picture icon on the side
After I have selected my picture to add, I then add the caption in the
caption box and any information that I want to in the description etc
and
then click close (top right hand corner) and legacy saves the link and
any information added.
I hope that this helps you.
Let me know if you are still having difficulties.
Regards
Anne
