It works for me. First go to options, customize, click on the view tab. About half way down the left side of the page is a box for Ancestor Color Coding. Put a check in the box and click Save. Next go to the Tools menu and click on Apply Ancestor Colors. Make sure that your name appears in the box. Click on Apply Color Coding. When you've done that go to report, Pedigree, chose the Color Text and Boxes option, On that screen you can choose the 4 Line Colors option. Click Save, then go to Report Options. The option for putting boxes around individuals will be available.
I hope this works for you, Barb Krecklow -----Original Message----- From: Dave Johnson Sent: Friday, November 04, 2011 12:43 PM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Cc: ge...@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: [LegacyUG] Printing colors on Pedigree Chart While watching today's webinar, I tried to replicate the color coding on a printed pedigree chart. The color coding option works for family group sheets but not the pedigree chart. It is my understanding that one need to select reports, chose the "color text and boxes" option and then select the Format Tab and select the first option: "Put boxes around individuals". For some reason, the "Put boxes around individuals" is all grayed out and not selectable. Can someone tell me how to make that option selectable? I'm running Legacy 7.5.014. Thank you. Dave David L.
