When you have the map up, place your cursor where you want the pushpin. Right click. Answer the pop-up question and the pushpin will move to that spot.

If these questions are answered in one of the new videos, let me know and I will buy today! Question 1: If you have a street address for the cemetery, it is properly entered in the Burial Address field, which is accessed by clicking the arrow at the end of the Burial location field. When you put it in the proper place, then Map My Places only finds the location entered from the Master Location list. It does not find the specific cemetery. I have read several suggestions about how others enter this, but if you have to enter the specific street address for each location, won't this make your Master Location List rather long and cumbersome? If this is the only way, I have lots of work to do to get the mapping feature to work properly. Question 2: For some reason, the push pin for my parents' hometown comes up on the same street they live on, only five blocks south. I have NOT entered their address, so I'm guessing this is just where VE has decided to put the pin for their town. It "feels" like we should be able to click on the push pin and drag it to where we want it to be, but I know that doesn't work. Is there a complicated reason why that is not an option? I'll take a simple "not even possible." I don't need a detailed explanation as to why not, since I probably wouldn't understand it anyway! :) Thanks to all of you who have taught me so much about Legacy (and genealogy!) -- Dede Holden Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp **************Get trade secrets for amazing burgers.
