"The ultimate goal of creating a large chart is to print it and hang it up for all to see and enjoy. " I disagree with that. The majority of charts that I produce are never printed out and just a visual representation of a particular part of the tree. I like to save in PDF format in as large a page format as I can manage then send to someone for them to view.

Charting Companion Help says "Sometimes it is more efficient, taking fewer pages, to orient your paper to landscape rather than portrait mode before printing.

Re: [LegacyUG] Nephew - don't know who the father is ?
Not sure how others would do it, but I'd make an unknown sibling then add William as a child of that person with a note explaining why I did it attached to William. You could just add William as an unlinked person until you find the link. The only reason I wouldn't do that is that I'd be afraid I'd loose William in the shuffle. Finally, be sure to remember that William could be a nephew-in-law as well. A lot of people call their nephew-in-laws, nephews. I just thought I'd throw that in there, just in case. :) Good luck!

Re: [LegacyUG] Adding Illegitimate Children
I've had to use this as well. The best way I know of is to create the marriage and add the child. Once done then select the member of the family, click Edit > Marriage and check the box near the top left that says, "This couple did not marry". On reports it will now say "Jill had a relationship with Jack" instead of something like "Jill married Jack". There is no real reason to worry over it being listed as a spouse within the application, so long as the report gets it right. It's the print version that needs to eliminate it as a marriage and as long as you check the box, it will. > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of W Gurney > Sent: 03 March 2008 23:34 > To: legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com > Subject: [LegacyUG] Adding Illegitimate Children > Need help adding an illegitimate child to a father who later marries another > person and has several children by her.

[LegacyUG] Legacy 7 Charting
I have had very little experience using any of the charting programs, I downloaded the free program and tried doing a 9 generation ancestor chart. I like the ability to add pictures as well as all the other features. When I printed off a standard ancester chart, I found that the starting person was placed about half way across the page, I would like to see it placed closer to the left side of the page. I also noticed that some of the earlier generations landed on the left edge of a page and as a result part of the block of information was lost. Later on I used the drag all individuals of the same generations and the drag only one individual features to reposition these generations, by doing this I was able to print off a good chart without losing any information. I would like to see the program have the ability to make adjustments automatically to position a generation so that it does not land on the edge of the page (top or side).

One feature that I have always thought would a good addition is, in a descendant tree, to be able select to add the parents of a spouse. Also to be able to add a previous/later marriage of a spouse with the children from that marriage. If done through a right click then you could decide just how much extra information to add on the chart.

[LegacyUG] charting pre-edition
Yet, one more opinion on the new charting program: Although there is an option to print charts as images, I'm not sure why. When blown up large enough to be seen the resolution of the text is too low and consequently blurred. Are the charts only meant to be printed on multiple pages, taped together and then looked at through a microscope? I've only experimented so far with the fan and bow tie. I've read several people so far saying that they like the Microsoft-look. I am flummoxed once again. As I was when Version 6 changed all its icons to looking like Microsoft. Even more notable for the fact that the rest of Legacy kept on looking like Legacy. It took months for my vision to adjust. With unlimited creativity available for designing graphical interfaces, why would Legacy be imitating Microsoft, unless there is intent to be the default genealogy program in one their future operating systems?

[LegacyUG] Legacy Charting Pre-release
I was working on a Standard Descendant Chart and noticed the boxes for my uncle's 3 wives were not in the correct order. When I checked on my Legacy file I do not have a date of marriage for his 3rd, and last, wife. The Chart that had been made had her first -- presumably because the lack of date means she is sorted first. Can anyone duplicate this?

Re: [LegacyUG] Adding Illegitimate Children
The way I've been doing it is to set them up as married, but when the marriage page comes up, I set them as "never married." This way it doesn't list them as a spouse, but as an unmarried relationship with issue. Joseph MagnoliaSouth wrote: I've had to use this as well. The best way I know of is to create the marriage and add the child. Once done then select the member of the family, click Edit > Marriage and check the box near the top left that says, "This couple did not marry". On reports it will now say "Jill had a relationship with Jack" instead of something like "Jill married Jack". There is no real reason to worry over it being listed as a spouse within the application, so long as the report gets it right. It's the print version that needs to eliminate it as a marriage and as long as you check the box, it will.

[LegacyUG] May not be the right place for this, But
I just recently signed on to this group when I downloaded the latest update to Legacy and also I noticed that the Legacy people are on here from looking at all the mail that has come in. Since downloading the update 6.0.0.190 I had trouble on my computers. Maybe was a bad idea on my part to keep up with the updates but was doing it anyway. My old computer is running ME and I use Eudora 5.1 for email and the new one has XP on it and has Eudora 7 for email. Both computers were working fine until after downloading the update and then Eudora on the old computer will download mail but when I try to pay bills via on-line banking I discovered I can no longer get into secure sites and all I get is the message "page not found" from any secure site. I then went to the newer computer and tried to use it and found that I can get Eudora to sign on to my server but when I go to download email nothing happens and so I went to outlook express and I can download the email ok. Then I tried to go to the on-line banking site and I can get into the site but the computer will not sign onto the site. Tried to go in to reset Id and the site does not accept the information it asks for when I type it in. I know this is wild but it is the only thing in common as I just done the update yesterday morning on the new computer and the old one was a couple of days ago. Found the problems later when I want to do the new tasks. By the way I am on dial up so hard to talk to someone and check the computer at the same time. DSL is not available to me, told it is 2 blocks from me. Any suggestions to the assumptions I have made. By the way the new computer's Legacy program was installed from a new program disk I ordered that was to come with version 7 when it was released and it would save all the updates that would have been needed if had used the old software disk. Ordered out a couple for people that wanted to get something else besides PAF.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Charting Pre-Release Edition Now Available For Free Download
Have just had a very quick look at this (15 minutes so far, but going back for more!), and I must say I like it. Some things I liked: 1. The general lay-out/look/feel of the screen, i.e., the MS Office 2007 style; 2. The ability, after creating a chart, to change the starting/current person dynamically, without having to create a new chart each time; 3. Also the ability to change the chart privacy options, chart type, Etc., Etc., in the same way. Some things I've noticed may need tweaking/improving: 1. When I ran a Y-DNA Descendants chart, for my grandfather, it included the adopted sons of my uncle, i.e., my cousins. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding what this chart should do, but these people obviously don't share the same DNA as their adoptive father. When this charting option is built-in to V7, I assume the child-parent status will be picked up and not include these individuals in a Y-DNA chart. 2. I'd rather that you could zoom in an a particular individual/marriage/part of the chart, rather than always the top-left. As I play with it a bit more, I'm sure I'll come up with further things in both lists which i could comment on. If any of them haven't been raised here, I'll bring them to yoru attention. Thanks, Geoff, for bringing this out, it may keep some of us quiet while we wait for V7. BTW, your family looks great on the samples, what beautiful children! Regards, Dermot.

RE: [LegacyUG] Legacy Charting Pre-Release Edition Now Available For Free Download
Mary, The way I have done this is to go to the Home page and adjust the size of the chart so that I can see all the pages. My objective was to stop splitting a box or marriage over a page break and by using the options on the bar on the left it was reasonably easy to move the boxes around to avoid this and optimise the pages. I have not found a "Page Set-up" as such but maybe this is what it means.

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Charting Pre-Release Edition Now Available For Free Download
Geoff, I attended your presentation in Tucson a few days ago and when you displayed the descendants chart, the pictures were large with small descriptions below. When I use the default settings the pictures are on the left side and the description is on the left. Your help section says The *Picture Settings* tab is part of the main Ribbon of Legacy Charting. It only appears when you have a picture selected within your chart. I cannot get it to appear on the Ribbon. How do I select a picture within the chart?

Any unlinked individual will show with a count of 1, i.e., a tree with only one person in it is, by definition, an unlinked individual.

Yes, t'was using the descendant chart and yes, it would print albeit still giving me the error message and of course, no notes would print as they aren't meant to print in this Chart.

[LegacyUG] Time Lines
Perhaps I'm not understanding this whole timelines thing. I cannot figure out how to include a timeline or timeline event in a report. The Help file says "To select a timeline for use in a Timeline or Chronology report, highlight the desired timeline in the list and then click OK." I have gone to View > TImelines and selected a timeline and clicked OK, it then closes the window and does nothing. I then went to View > Timelines > Edit and selected a date then clicked OK, then once again it closes the window and does nothing. I've tried selecting several different kinds of reports after having both selected a Timeline and clicking OK, but the Timeline still doesn't show up in the report. I've searched all over the options in the reports, but I cannot find anything which mentions the inclusion of a Timeline. I've gone to an individual to try and add a Timeline event, but again, I can't find anything there either Can someone please tell me what this feature is supposed to do, and how to do it? I understand what a Timeline is, but I cannot figure out how to include it in a report, or attach either part of a timeline or a whole timeline entry to an individual. To explain why I'm trying to do it, I was reading the archives and came across this post: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/msg19753.html Am I misunderstanding something?

[LegacyUG] Legacy Charting - where to print your charts
For those that have starting using the pre-release edition of Legacy Charting, you'll notice on the Publish tab that the Order Chart button does not yet allow you to order a wall chart. We're putting the final touches on this. We will release this in a free update. In the mean time, you could generate a .pdf of the chart and have it printed at Kinkos or other printing places.

Why on earth should the parents of a spouse or children of a spouse's previous/later marriage be included in a descendat tree of a person who is *not* the ancestor of those children? - Original Message From: Martin Briscoe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Wednesday, March 5, 2008 2:04:25 AM Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Legacy Charting Pre-Release Edition Now Available For Free Download One feature that I have always thought would a good addition is, in a descendant tree, to be able select to add the parents of a spouse. Also to be able to add a previous/later marriage of a spouse with the children from that marriage.

G.C., Legacy Charting doesn't yet have the ability to lock in a specific page size, such as 11x17. Legacy Charting provides you with the page size in the lower right of the screen. I see that when you adjust the sizing of the chart that you can get it to size at 11x17 or 17x11. So it should work as you desire. There's not currently a way to suppress spouses, but we'll add that to the enhancement request list.

Claire, Regarding the tiling of background pictures - when you click on the Background button (on the Appearance tab), try the Stretch to Frame option in the Display options. This will stretch the image to the entire chart. Using the Themes button on the Appearance tab you can create/save templates.

What I particularly like: The Office 2007 style. I'm sure there will be those that dislike it because it's a bit of a change, but having been using Office 2007 for several months I was very happy to see this style being used, it is, IMHO, much more intuitive than the 'standard' windows menus lists. The drag and drop options. It looks like this is very straight forward to use, especially with the generational and familial group options. I like how it auto-draws the drop lines, rather than some other programs where you have to specifically tell them to pick them up, or have to reposition them by hand. The selection of charts. I love the father and mother charts. I didn't see an "all people in db" chart, but I'm not sure what I'd do with it anyway. Looks like a pretty good selection to me. Unexpected behaviour/Niggles The background pictures don't tile as I would expect. When I have a slim chart up (for instance the father ancestor chart) the background I chose tiled vertically, but only the centre portion of the picture was visible. I would have expected the whole picture to be used and then it would be tiled vertically and horizontally as appropriate When starting the program new and with a new chart all the previous settings are kept, including the background picture. I would have expected them to reset. Leading on from that, the possibility to set templates would be really nice - set up different colours + background + info per family, or per chart. Items to display box: a select all/deselect all check box would be nice to quickly change the viewed information settings. Using the scroll wheel always zooms into the top left corner. I was hoping there might be a scroll into the selected person on the chart, or based on the mouse position. OK, perhaps I'm being greedy, because niggles apart there is a lot that I like about this software. Thanks Geoff for the chance to get the charting module ahead of schedule. I'm looking forward to hearing what the other list members' first impressions are!

Re: [LegacyUG] charting pre-edition
Because it is easier for people to learn to use a program if it has an interface that is "standard"... ie, one used by other programs. As Microsoft (rightly or wrongly) has the most people using its programs, it is a main standard to follow. I well remember the days when in one program, to get help, you would press , another program it was , yet another it was , and another it was (I think), etc etc. Another wide variation on how to save. etc, etc. It is a lot easier to use programs if most of the programs use the same keystrokes to do common things - and the same with the menus and toolbars, and other graphical interfaces. I for one am glad that Legacy is using a commonly used interface for the toolbars and menus. > months for my vision to adjust.

Select the Icon in the upper left hand corner to the left of the words HOME, there you will see what you want.

RE: [LegacyUG] charting pre-edition
The ability to sit down at a program and use it quickly without a massive learning curve is a great advantage when you get a new piece of software. This is why there is are standard GUI Guidelines for windows development from Microsoft. Although it would be lovely if each new piece of software could be a new work of art, consistency in behavior and look and feel is about Productivity (what you can get done). Every Windows app could also define its own collection of keyboard shortcuts (Cut =Ctrl+X in windows but why not use Ctrl+Shift+2 in Legacy and Alt+Shift+R then Enter in Photoshop, etc., etc.) giving each programmer a chance to creatively express themselves artistically in their choice of keys too but in the long run this slows down new learners or those who use more than one piece of software. The more consistency in the App with other apps users are used to, the more quickly new adopters get up and going and the more likely they are to stick with the app and keep using it (and to pay for the Deluxe edition). The real place Legacy Programmers should be flexing their creative muscles are in the areas that make Genealogy Software unique and powerful, Legacy or Genealogy specific features. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of JLB Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2008 2:28 AM To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Subject: [LegacyUG] charting pre-edition Yet, one more opinion on the new charting program: Although there is an option to print charts as images, I'm not sure why. When blown up large enough to be seen the resolution of the text is too low and consequently blurred. Are the charts only meant to be printed on multiple pages, taped together and then looked at through a microscope? I've only experimented so far with the fan and bow tie. I've read several people so far saying that they like the Microsoft-look. I am flummoxed once again. As I was when Version 6 changed all its icons to looking like Microsoft. Even more notable for the fact that the rest of Legacy kept on looking like Legacy. It took months for my vision to adjust. With unlimited creativity available for designing graphical interfaces, why would Legacy be imitating Microsoft, unless there is intent to be the default genealogy program in one their future operating systems?

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy Charting Pre-Release Edition Now Available For Free Download
I have tried repeatedly to download the Charting program, all goes well until the "Click Here to Download" and nothing seems to happen. I have tried repeatedly, I have received 4 - 5 emails thanking me for downloading along with the password but no indication that it actually downloaded. When I go back, my email address, etc. is still present in the Download Form. I am still running Legacy 5 DeLuxe.

Re: [LegacyUG] Nephew - don't know who the father is ?
Continuing with Ron's suggestion, I place the nephew as the son of Andrew adding a suffix to the nephew's name [nephew].

RE: [LegacyUG] Time Lines
Cindy, I have no idea when this will be published by LUG, as some I posted this morning (over 6 hours ago) still haven't arrived! However, from your description you are trying to enter it from the wrong place. After you click the Chronology tab you then need to click the Options button on the right and at the bottom of the screen you will see a bar for entering a timeline.

Re: [LegacyUG] Printing in landscape
You should be able to do it from you Printer menu - not through Legacy. Printing won't happen until you press 'OK' but before that happens, go to Preferences in the Printer controls.
