Elsie, you make my point: "having to reset relationships or opening the relationship > calculator every time I add a new related person is very time > consuming." Imagine the program automatically doing that every time you added > a new name.
I do not reset after adding every name, even if in a direct line, just every now and again when I either need to do it or just want to look at something. In fact, at the moment I think it's still set to my sister's husbands family for whom I've been doing some work rather than mine, which I have been working on for the past 3-4 days.
