If one uses Events, can one still copy and paste interesting bits into that as
one can do with notes?

Let me share an idea I got from Geoff Rasmussen. With the flexibility Legacy
offers, we can consider entering data in more than one place, then use
various options to only include what we want.
For example, the biography data could be entered both as an event AND in the
General Notes.

It¹s a good idea.
For me, however, I simply stopped using the General notes some time ago,
except as a convenient occasional ³parking spot² for some bit of info I was

Bob,
This kind of option has been touched on before - basically "personal
preference".
I am normally a "lumper". Obituaries go into Source Detail Text (if
transcribed) or Source Detail Multimedia. I don't expect to reproduce them for
everyone, unless there is something unusual, noteworthy,
Well, I made a custom event for obituaries. There is general one
already, but mine allows me to include everything from an obit, pall
