The source clipboard is one of the best 'labour-saving' devices in Legacy.
It is indeed, but it lacks one option which I would find really useful.
That is the option to add several sources to the clipboard and then select
which one(s) will actually be pasted.
When I find a new person/family on a Census I will follow up by tracing
the relevant entries in the Marriage and Birth indexes and will then want
to cite one or more of these Sources as I add the new information to my
database. If I find a man has now married and has a child I will be
wanting to Source a Census Event for all 3 of them, a Marriage for the
man, Births for the wife and the child and I also cite the Census as a
source for the name/age information for the wife and child. (This is to
show how I knew who to look for in the Indexes.
I usually find it quicker to add all the Sources to the clipboard, paste
them all and delete the ones which aren't relevant, but it would be nice
to be able to select just the ones I want to paste each time.
