[LegacyUG] Printing charts

2007-08-27 Thread Bill & Dorothy Samson
From: Bill:

 

I would like to print an ancestor wall chart with all the
family members in the file, including all the siblings, partners and
children in the data base.

The only way I have found of including everyone is to
generate a multiple line of decent report. Does anyone know a way of doing
this? 

Hope to hear from someone soon.

Siblings, Children of the siblings, and partners of the siblings have no place 
in an ancestor chart as they are NOT your ancestors (unless a cousin marriage 
is involved and if so a regular ancestor chart will handle that automatically). 
They are mere relatives of your ancestors. Your ancestors are your parents, 
grandparents, great Grandparents, etc.

Not currently with Legacy 6. You can do it with the addon Legacy TreeDraw.

We've been told that Wall Charts are coming with Legacy 7
(See in archives - subject was "Sneak Peek of Legacy 7")

Sounds like you are really looking for multiple descendant charts.

Re: Re: [LegacyUG] Printing charts

2007-08-27 Thread the_verminator
Funny that... and there I was thinking I was discribing the imprecise usage of 
a specific genealogical term, i.e. "Ancestor Chart"

There may well be a chart that shows the relationships the person wants, but 
whatever type of chart it will be it will NOT be an Ancestors Chart; just as a 
descendants chart should not include stepchildren, foster children, or adopted 
children. While there is no doubt that they are members of the family; no amout 
of paperwork, wishing, praying or loving will make them actual descendants.

Perhaps it is long past time that the family historians got together and 
decided on real names for these kinds of charts instead of usurping and trying 
to re-define regular standard genealogical terms.

There are certain lines that divide genealogists and family historians.. the 
lines of Ancestor and Descendant charts.

Incidentally, referring to your example of the Lancashire location, my 
previous genealogy program, Ancestral Quest, would have dealt with that 
issue simply by searching on all entries like the one with the 
shortened version of Lancashire, and replacing them with the preferred 
version.  Does Legacy have a similar capability.


Yes, it does!  But if you had used Search and Replace on the Tools menu 
to replace all instances of "Liverpool, Lancs, England" with "Liverpool, 
Lancashire, England" and you already had a location of "Liverpool, 
Lancashire, England" you would then have TWO locations the same and 
would need to do the Combine operation!

Susan Daily wrote
lots of times in the address field I use the privacy [[brackets]] to 
list stuff that otherwise won't print (like a town name, when I already 
put the town in the location field).


Oh, I'm not alone, then?!

I hate to have a report which reads something like "...was baptised on 
27 February 1828 in Eynsford, Kent, England (Baptist Chapel, Eynsford, 
Kent England)" so I just put "Baptist Chapel" in the Name field of the 
Address - and if I knew it I would enter the street address also - and 
in the City field I enter "[[Eynsford]]".


I can appreciate that this would not suit a lot of people, but it works 
for me!

Valerie, one suggestion for you if you have more than one family in your
file is to create a focus group using Search and tag your focus group
with an unused tag no eg 8 or 9, then create your gedcom by exporting to
Gedcom all individuals tagged with 8 or 9 (whichever you've chosen to
use), remember to exclude any information like addresses private notes
etc that you have in your file or others will have access to them too.

More details:
Search > Miscellaneous search > Focus group > 'View/select focus group'
button - add as many people and descendants that fit your criteria, save
and close your list
- Back at Miscellaneous search, 'Create list' button > Options >
Advanced Tagging - select 'Everyone in Search list' button, select an
unused tag no eg 8 or 9, close your list
- Go to File > Export to > Gedcom file, choose all the settings you'd
like to show as much or as little detail in the Gedcom, go to 'Record
selection' button, choose 'All records with an individual tag" of # use
the tag no you allocated for your focus group.

Hope this helps.
Cheers
Tracy

Hi Cathy,
Thanks for taking the time to help me. I do use pack on one line. It seems 
there isn't an option to just have name, birth and death dates. I do not see 
a way to eliminate the locations. Otherwise it does look somewhat like the 
Descendant View.

[LegacyUG] Where do I enter the age at death.

2007-08-27 Thread Valeris Garton
1.  in the death notes section

2.  as a death event.

What are the repercussions when printing out reports ?

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of
arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to
skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body
thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO - what a
ride!"

Re: [LegacyUG] Where do I enter the age at death.

2007-08-27 Thread Heather Stovold
well, I put it in the source details of the birth (or alt. birth) myself...
- I bet that wasn't what you would expect!   But I would take whatever
document gave me that age, and then calculate the birth date.  If I didn't
have a birth date before, then I would enter CAL 1822 (or whatever) in the
birth field, and use this as a birth source - and in the source notes it
would say Age 30 in 1852 - birth calculates to 1822. If I had a birth
date of something in 1822 from another source, I would still add this new
information as a birth source, as more proof.   If I had a different
birthdate, say 1815 then I would create an alt.birth event, and use this as
the source.   If I was SURE of the 1815 birthdate, then I think it was
advised somewhere that you can change an alt.birth event to something else -
maybe disproved birth?

I wouldn't put the age in the death notes or anywhere else, in case I found
a different date later, and forgot to change it!  The program calculates the
age at death for you automatically, and I'd find it confusing if they didn't
match!

Anyway, that is what I would do  I'm sure there are a lot of different
thoughts out there!

When you open an individual, the age at death (in years) is displayed out to the

I think I remember seeing discussion on this board of how to get it to calculate

[LegacyUG] Bug on Ages Report Option?

2007-08-27 Thread Susan Daily
I played with Ctrl-A again, and this time was curious what a report
would look like. So I clicked on the bottom left "Print Report", then
clicked on Preview. I then unchecked both RINs and Shadowed boxes, but
noticed the shadowed boxes remained in Preview and in the generated
PDF.  (Shadowed boxes presumably being the shading in the headers. If
it meant something else, then no shadowed boxes are showing up to
begin with.)

Can anyone verify?

[LegacyUG] Legacy v7 - Sources based on _Evidence_ by Mills

2007-08-27 Thread Gail Nestor
Hi user group and Legacy staff, I listened to Geoff's interview with
Dear Myrt and carefully read Renee Zamora's blog entries about the v7
Sneak Peek.  All the information on sources and bibliography creation
sound very promising!

I know that _Evidence Explained_ just came out this month, but I truly
hope that the powers that be will make sure the v7 source template
incorporates as much of this second book as possible.  There is so
much more information here and the source components are carefully
described and laid out.  Mills' first book certainly still stands on
its own merit, but the new book expands to many other types of sources
and does justice to all the online resources people use more often
these days.

Renees' post said that there will be bibliography output capability
and I really look forward to this.  The formatting is different
between a footnote and a bibliography.  While v6 will provide a master
source list, it does not put the components in bibliography format,
which has periods instead of commas and does not include the citation
detail.

I'm seeing the need to break the author field into first and last name
so that the bibliography can sort by author's last name.  I'm sure
this is all part of migrating one's sources over to the v7 format.  I
just want to make sure every effort is made to pull as much from
_Evidence Explained_ as possible because it is such a great resource.

Thanks,
--

Hi Richard,

I'm glad that this exchange of information made clear to us all what the 
multimedia backup in Legacy actually accomplishes.

Although I initially expected Legacy to back up _all_ multimedia files, 
I like this format better, where only the linked images are backed up.  
If there were a move to change that format I would hope that there would 
also be a switch to make it optional.

Re: [LegacyUG] Another cry for help

Ann Parsons,

To print what is displayed on the screen this method works very well for me.

I use a small image editing program called "IrfanView" which can be downloaded 
free from:
http://www.irfanview.com/

First install IrfanView on your computer, then follow these steps.

1. In Legacy (or any other program), get things/people lined up the way you want
2. Hold down the "Alt" key and press the "Print Screen" key
3. Open Irfanview
4. Click "Edit", then "Paste"
5. Use the left mouse button to draw a rectangle around the part of the image 
you want to print
6. Click "Edit", the "Crop Selection"
7. Then you can print the image, or save it to a file, or Copy and paste it 
into another application.

Hope this helps.

Len Garber

RE: [LegacyUG] Legacy v7 - Sources based on _Evidence_ by Mills

2007-08-27 Thread ronald ferguson


Gail,

Whilst have no feeling one way or the other about Legacy accomodating a 
format compatible with Mills's latest output, I would hope that it will 
maintain the flexibility that has characterised the program.


One of the strengths of Legacy is the way in which it can be used to suit 
different countries, cultures and individual ways of working and in my 
opinion it would be most regrettable if this is sacrificed on the altar of 
standardisation. In particular I have no wish whatsoever to have to redo all 
my web pages because of a change in the format of sources, or anything else 
for that matter.

Date: Mon, 27 Aug 2007 12:30:01 -0400

Hi user group and Legacy staff, I listened to Geoff's interview with
Dear Myrt and carefully read Renee Zamora's blog entries about the v7
Sneak Peek.  All the information on sources and bibliography creation
sound very promising!

I know that _Evidence Explained_ just came out this month, but I truly
hope that the powers that be will make sure the v7 source template
incorporates as much of this second book as possible.  There is so
much more information here and the source components are carefully
described and laid out.  Mills' first book certainly still stands on
its own merit, but the new book expands to many other types of sources
and does justice to all the online resources people use more often
these days.

Renees' post said that there will be bibliography output capability
and I really look forward to this.  The formatting is different
between a footnote and a bibliography.  While v6 will provide a master
source list, it does not put the components in bibliography format,
which has periods instead of commas and does not include the citation
detail.

I'm seeing the need to break the author field into first and last name
so that the bibliography can sort by author's last name.  I'm sure
this is all part of migrating one's sources over to the v7 format.  I
just want to make sure every effort is made to pull as much from
_Evidence Explained_ as possible because it is such a great resource.

Re: [LegacyUG] Names in Address List

2007-08-27 Thread ronald ferguson


Rich,

Broadly speaking it is equivalent to your American Nursing home. We have two 
types, one of which is operated by the private sector (and in this I include 
voluntary (charitable) and not for profit) and also those in the state 
sector which are usually run by the local authorities.


The above relates to the current situation and has varied over our history 
from the times of the old workhouses, through nursing homes when nearly all 
were state controlled, to the present mixed position.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy v7 - Sources based on _Evidence_ by Mills

2007-08-27 Thread Gail Nestor
Hi Ron, don't get me wrong - I'm all for flexibility!  I would
definitely not want that sacrificed either.  As much as Ms. Mills has
tried to bring a bit of standardization to sourcing, she even freely
admits that it is an art as much as a science.

I still grapple with sources and all of mine seem to still be
different than the ones in 885 pages of her book!!  My main goal,
before having "the perfect format," truly is to just ensure I and
others can find/retrace my research steps.

I also grapple with the sometimes competing needs of database
efficiencies vs. formatting for possible later written publication.
I'm still aiming to do both, but it's a hard road.

My hopes for Legacy v7 are just things like needing to split the
author name input into two fields so that a report could print first
name first (for footnotes) or last name first (for bibliographies).  I
definitely do not want to be limited with the templates and am hopeful
that Renee was right when she said we could create our own templates.
I'm sure I'll be hand-crafting a few.

My final thought is that I don't want to come across as a sourcing
snob - a sourcing nerd maybe! - but not a snob.  As long as I can
follow someone's footnote to its source, I will never be the one to
say the format is not good!  I still feel like a total novice with all
of this and I'm just striving to do a good job for my two little
descendants and their future descendants.

RE: [LegacyUG] Legacy v7 - Sources based on _Evidence_ by Mills

2007-08-27 Thread Denise Levenick
I too listened to the Myrt interview this weekend and read Renee's blog - it
sounds like Geoff R. is trying keeping to keep V7 very hush hush until the
last minute. Of course, all this speculation builds anticipation and
interest ;>).

This group has really inspired me to be careful and consistent in my own
sourcing through Legacy, but I do look forward to what Geoff said was a more
user-friendly interface for sourcing. It is hard if you are a beginner to
figure out how to enter information in the program so that it will develop a
logical citation. In some ways, I think writing a Works Cited entry from
scratch is almost easier. While "old pros" might feel comfortable with their
personal system, whenever I am tackling something new I tend to rely on the
advice of those who have gone on before so I don't get hung up trying to
reinvent the wheel.

I love Dear Myrt's blog and podcasts by the way. Very informative and fun!
Are there other great ones out there?

  I think this is a wake up call to include Source
  photos, etc. in the backup list for the future, if not
  current. For myself, I add the documents to both the
  source and an individual or two. For the present, I
  have created a person named Fake Name, and he would be
  perfect to add ALL photo/documents into until this
  situation is resolved. This is not a quick fix,
  depending on quantity.

Rich,

Broadly speaking it is equivalent to your American Nursing home. We have two
types, one of which is operated by the private sector (and in this I include
voluntary (charitable) and not for profit) and also those in the state
sector which are usually run by the local authorities.

The above relates to the current situation and has varied over our history
from the times of the old workhouses, through nursing homes when nearly all
were state controlled, to the present mixed position.

I have to agree with you. I do not want Ms. Mills or anyone telling me how

Gail,

Whilst have no feeling one way or the other about Legacy accomodating a 
format compatible with Mills's latest output, I would hope that it will 
maintain the flexibility that has characterised the program.

One of the strengths of Legacy is the way in which it can be used to suit 
different countries, cultures and individual ways of working and in my 
opinion it would be most regrettable if this is sacrificed on the altar of 
standardisation. In particular I have no wish whatsoever to have to redo all

my web pages because of a change in the format of sources, or anything else 
for that matter.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy v7 - Sources based on _Evidence_ by Mills

2007-08-27 Thread Gail Nestor
I sort of think that some might be missing part of my point.  I made
not have made it very clear in my earlier note and if so, I apologize.
 I'm actually asking for much *more* flexibility with source citation
than we currently have.   Right now, the output order, format, etc. is
totally set and you cannot change it to suit your needs.  The author
goes in one spot, the title in another, and the publication facts in
their own.  There can be no blending of master source fields with
citation detail fields in the output from v6.  I'm asking for and
hoping for much more flexibility in v7 to create whatever output order
I want (Mills style or not).

Although Geoff's interview highlighted the templates as a way to take
out the guesswork with sources and make them standardized, I do
believe the new source templates (and ability to create one's own
custom template) will give this much-needed flexibility, yet not force
everyone to start with a blank piece of paper if they don't want to.

I do respect everyone's desire to do sources their own way and don't
want to push one method over another.

Without giving away "too much", the v7 will allow you to continue with the
existing sources, or use the new templates. Like Gail mentioned, they will
offer the additional flexibility that v6 currently does not have. You will
have the ability to create your own templates, adjust the existing ones,
etc. Personally, I can't wait to have them fully operational. For years we
have had to wonder exactly what goes where to attain the desired output. In

Ann Parsons,

To print what is displayed on the screen this method works very well for me.

I use a small image editing program called "IrfanView" which can be 
downloaded free from:
http://www.irfanview.com/

First install IrfanView on your computer, then follow these steps.

1. In Legacy (or any other program), get things/people lined up the way you 
want
2. Hold down the "Alt" key and press the "Print Screen" key
3. Open Irfanview
4. Click "Edit", then "Paste"
5. Use the left mouse button to draw a rectangle around the part of the 
image you want to print
6. Click "Edit", the "Crop Selection"
7. Then you can print the image, or save it to a file, or Copy and paste it 
into another application.

Hope this helps.

Without giving away "too much", the v7 will allow you to continue with the
existing sources, or use the new templates. Like Gail mentioned, they will
offer the additional flexibility that v6 currently does not have. You will
have the ability to create your own templates, adjust the existing ones,
etc. Personally, I can't wait to have them fully operational. For years we
have had to wonder exactly what goes where to attain the desired output. In
v7, you won't have to wonder.

I sort of think that some might be missing part of my point.  I made
not have made it very clear in my earlier note and if so, I apologize.
 I'm actually asking for much *more* flexibility with source citation
than we currently have.   Right now, the output order, format, etc. is
totally set and you cannot change it to suit your needs.  The author
goes in one spot, the title in another, and the publication facts in
their own.  There can be no blending of master source fields with
citation detail fields in the output from v6.  I'm asking for and
hoping for much more flexibility in v7 to create whatever output order
I want (Mills style or not).

Although Geoff's interview highlighted the templates as a way to take
out the guesswork with sources and make them standardized, I do
believe the new source templates (and ability to create one's own
custom template) will give this much-needed flexibility, yet not force
everyone to start with a blank piece of paper if they don't want to.

I do respect everyone's desire to do sources their own way and don't
want to push one method over another.

For years we have had to wonder exactly what goes where to attain the desired 
output. In
v7, you won't have to wonder.


Geoff,
thank you, thank you, thank you, and I have only been waiting for  a few 
months. A week or so ago I asked if anyone had developed a chart showing where 
the various input locations actually did or did not come out. I haven't yet 
received a response. Perhaps this could be included in the help system? At the 
moment I am entering some cemetery records and with my limited knowledge of the 
program, I can find 13 different places where the whole or parts of this info. 
could go. The downside of flexibility for the inexperienced.

[LegacyUG] Free Printscreen Program

2007-08-27 Thread hwedhlor
There is a free printscreen program that allows the user to capture all, 
or part of a screen, with, or without the cursor showing, and place the 
results in the clipboard, or anywhere else on the computer they desire.  
The resulting captured image may be pasted into the location of your 
choice, as is, or with a shadow, etc.


The program may be downloaded from Gadwin Systems, Inc. at:

http://www.gadwin.com/printscreen/

I've used it for years at home, and at the office, and can recommend it 
highly.


I am also familiar with Irfanview, and recommend it also.  The 
printscreen program just eliminates the steps of using Irfanview to crop 
the screen capture by allowing the user to drag a rectangle over the 
area of the screen they wish to capture right from the start.


Gadwin Printscreen also allows the user to select what keystrokes 
activate the program.

Yes, it does!  But if you had used Search and Replace on the Tools

Actually, all you have to do is push the "PrtScn" button on your computer
and it copies whatever is on the screen to your clip board. If you want just
the active window copied, hold the Alt button down while pressing PrtScn.
Then just paste into Wordpad or anything else.

Re: [LegacyUG] Free Printscreen Program

Faststone Image Viewer also has a variety of screen capture options 
in its File Menu.
You can choose to capture part or all of a screen - rectangle or 
freestyle and save to clipboard or file or image viewer.

So no extra cropping needed.

I actually use another program for screen capture (Clipmate - which 
isn't free but sits on my Taskbar and I just have to click the 
partial screen capture pic on it and draw around the part I want and 
it's on the clipboard)


Faststone is free, small and fast and will minimise to a bar on your 
screen. I find it easier to use than IrfanView which I used to use 
constantly as a quick viewer. I now usually only use it to view odd 
file formats.
