That only happens if you have them turned on in Customize/General/Popup
ToolTips and Popup Information boxes. You can also turn them off if the
boxes flashing up get on your nerves. They make me jump every single time.

Well, I have a strange thing too - so am wondering how it is for
others. I have found another thing that I didn't realise happens.
When I *rest* the arrow pointer on a child in the children's list
*sometimes* their spouse (or all of them, if more than one) will come
up and stay up in a small box below the other larger box which comes
up with the information to be able to edit eg: Name, dates and name of
spouse. Where appropriate the little box has said 'Spouse: None'. On
other occasions the small spouse box just flashes and disappears too
quickly to be read and then on other occasions it just doesn't show
itself at all. I had thought that it might be something to do with the
position of the child in the list or the fact of not having a spouse
but it obviously isn't that as it sometimes shows 'Spouse: None'. So
far it seems to be random. Wondering how it shows for other folk.******
*****AH well, it seems as if I may have answered my own problem - I
now find that there seems to be a very critical place (on the child's
name) as to where to rest the pointer for the small box to remain
showing; providing I find that spot it always does show the 'list' of
spouses(spice?????) in the small box whereas the larger Edit box only
shows the preferred spouse. Talk abt finding new things in Legacy!!

Strange - I was viewing FAMILY VIEW and my mouse came to rest between
the husband and wife. A little box popped up and - just by clicking
the space between husband and wife - one can see all of the siblings
of the highlighted person.
To be pedantic, the next sibling in sequence :-) down to the last,
when it beeps and goes back to the first.
Anyone discover any other "hidden" (or perhaps I just never
discovered) bits in Legacy?
When an individual has more than 1 spouse, clicking to the left of
the husband or right of the wife boxes, causes the next wife or
husband to come into the Family View.
Clicking to the left of the husbands parents or right of the wifes
parents will, if there is wore than one set of parents, cycle through
them as well.
