Subject: [LegacyUG] Bugs still not fixed...
[resent when original post did not show up on lug after several hours]
Support:
Here is my list of bugs that have still not been fixed in the latest
update. These were reported long ago. If you do not consider some of
these bugs, let me know and I will remove them from my list. Otherwise I
will continue to track their resolution.
There is one other bug (not listed here) that has been around for a long
time that I am currently discussing with Dave.
[Sorry for the length of the post, but I thought it best to include the
details.]

Bug #1:
On the Individual screen, position the data entry cursor on an empty field,
say Baptism Location. Now, without repositioning the cursor, hover the
mouse
over the label for another field, say the "in" for Burial Location, right
click, and select a location from the pop-up. Notice that the cursor
remains
in the Baptism Location field? Wouldn't it be better to move the cursor to
the
Burial Location field? This fooled me today, because without looking at the
screen, I immediately hit ALT-2 to apply a source and it went in the wrong
field.
I suppose this might also happen on a few other windows, like the Add/Edit
Event window.
Bug #2:
In V6, I set the default location for family files to a directory in My
Documents. Then I open up a family file from that directory. So far, so
good.
Then I click on sample.fdb from the recently used files menu item.
Sample.fdb
(in C:\Legacy60\Data) opens. Again ... so far, so good.
But now when I go back to look at the default location for family files, it
has been reset to C:\Legacy60\Data ... no longer the My Documents directory
that I had set it to a minute ago. I would think that the default location
for
family files should stay fixed until I change it manually. It shouldn't
change
based on what file I currently have open, should it?
Bug #3:
The "Start each report section on an odd-numbered page" option in the
Publishing Center does not appear to stick.
Bug #4:
If I have a book open in the Publishing Center, then go to "Load a Saved
Book...", the "Load Book Definition" dialog pops up. If I click Cancel, the
Publishing Center appears to loose some of its current settings. The name
of
the currently open book between brackets [...] on the title bar disappears.
All the pages on the "Additional" tab revert to default (blank) pages. Etc.
I normally don't expect canceling an operation to behave like this.
Bug #5:
I have my Screen Fonts options set up to display Notes in a fixed width
font (Lucida Console). Data and labels use proportional fonts (Arial).
When I first open up an Individual Information window, the Events/Facts
list at the bottom of the window are displayed correctly using the
proportional font. I close this window, open up the Marriage Notes
window, which correctly uses the fixed-width font. After entering some
data and saving, the very next Individual Information window I open
incorrectly displays the Events/Facts list at the bottom of the window
in a fixed-width font. Closing the window and reopening it fixes the
problem.
Bug #6:
The Publication Center seems to be getting the caption from the Title
Page of the 1st chapter instead of from the Title Page of the book. But
even this seems to be behaving strangely. (I have to create the book
TWICE before the caption shows up.)
Bug #7:
Mark an individual "Never Married".
Go to the Family View. It should say ** Never Married ** in the marriage
info area. Now click the marriage info area and bring up the Marriage
Information screen. Immediately click Cancel. Back on the Family View,
notice that ** Never Married ** has disappeared.
Bug #8:
Is a GEDCOM export of the "Basic" tags supposed to include the CAUS (Cause
of
Death) tag? It does.
Should Title Prefix and Suffix be exported in a "Basic" GEDCOM export? They
aren't.
