Bob, The 4 line colors work for me. There are a few steps involved in getting the 4 generation line colors to work in the Timeline report:
1. Turn on the option for color coding ancestors. Click on Options > Customize and select the View tab in the Customize screen. Next check the box ‘Display custom generation line colors on screen.’ (I do this because it makes it easy for me to see the staring person for the colors in Family View.) 2. Apply color coding to the starting person for generation line colors in your family file. (This is usually yourself.) Click on Tools > Apply Ancestor Colors. 3. In the Timeline reports screen, click the ‘Color Text and Boxes’ button to open the Custom Color screen and select the 4 line color option. Usually when a timeline report coloring is not right it’s because you need to reset the starting person (step 2). Good luck, Jim Terry Technical Support Legacy Family Tree -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bob Janice Sent: Saturday, September 17, 2005 3:47 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [LegacyUG] Color Text and Boxes in Timeline Report Can anyone confirm a problem I am having with the "Color Text and Boxes" settings for the Timeline Report . . . When I choose "Male/Female Colors" I get the expected blue and red boxes on the report. When I choose the "4 Line Colors (Blue, Green, Red, Yellow) I get no colors at all on the report.
