The disturbing fact is that ONE user caused this change. CE From: Brian/Support <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wed, June 27, 2012 4:50:55 PM Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] scrapbook photo layout
The old layout placed the pictures left to right across the page then down to the next row. The space for each picture was fixed and any descriptions that took more than the allowed space were truncated. The new layout is a column format where pictures are added down the page in the first column then change to column 2 and fill that. This continues for as many columns as specified by your pictures/page setting. The height of a particular picture is now driven by the length of the description which are no longer truncated arbitrarily. The new sequence is required to figure out when the picture plus text needs to be started at the top of the next column or carried to the next page if it is a picture in the last column. There is no option for concise vs verbose for descriptions because there is only one description field. The verbosity was the way that one user filled out the description field. He had long paragraphs describing when and where the picture was taken and who was in the photo if there was a group. I cannot remember now if his list of people was one person per line or if his descriptions were organized into multiple line entries. I only remember that in some cases his descriptions were 10 or 15 lines long. <snip> Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
