[LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

[Jan Roberts]

Aaarrgh!  I think I have just discovered something I didn't previously
realise about the source clipboard.  I know there has been a lot of
discussion in the past about the removal of the option to add more than one
source to the clipboard - and I have been among those who are glad you can't
do that any more because of the risk of adding a source to the wrong event.
But I often use the source clipboard to add the same source to more than one
event - for instance a newspaper article might give me info about a person's
name, birth date, death date, and say burial location.  So I add the source
to the clipboard, click on the three bar icon and quickly add the source to
every field that has information.  I normally only add a source this way
when I first enter the info because most times the source won't be relevant
to all fields that have information.  In that case I use the single bar icon
to add the source just to the relevant fields.  All that by way of
explaining that I understand how to use the single and triple bar icons.
What now bothers me is that by accident I have just discovered that "all
fields with information" includes any additional events, not just the vital
events of birth, death, baptism etc.  So let's say I had added numerous
events to a person, including name, birth date and death date.  I then find
another source which confirms all of this information re birth and death -
no other fields in the information screen have any info, so I can safely use
the three bar icon to add the source to all the fields with info.  But no -
because it will also add the same source to all events as well.  As I said -
Aaaarrrgh!  There may not be many instances where this has happened,
because, as I said, USUALLY it is only when a source is giving me
information about a newly added person that I use the three bar icon, and a
lot of people don't have additional events added anyway, but how often have
I done it without realising this unwanted consequence?  And how on earth do
I find where it might have happened?  Aaaarrrgh!

Cheers
Jan

I remember when this topic was raised here before and I think a few
people have been caught out.  I think it's the position of the bar icons
which leads to the misunderstanding, but I can't see that there is
really anywhere else to put them, unless perhaps positions of the Anc &
Des (British people at least will know why I always want to call them
Ant & Dec!) gubbins and the bar icons could be swapped over.

In fact, I think I will put that forward as an enhancement suggestion.

It doesn't sound like it's the position of the bar icons that bothers
Jan.  She used the triple bar intentionally.  It was not knowing that
"all used fields" meant other than vital statistic fields such as
events.  Now she is looking for a way to determine where she may have
applied these sources to fields she really didn't want sourced.  I
would like to know this also.

Re: [LegacyUG] Filing Systems Obsolete?

[Connie Sheets]

I think the extent to which one goes "paperless" is (or should be) a function 
of how your brain works, the extent to which you have published your work, and 
the extent to which you have arranged for (and trust) your potential survivors 
to save your work.  (IMO, most people will have to think harder about pitching 
your paper files and binders than they will about ignoring or throwing away 
your computer).

While I no longer print everything, I certainly continue to maintain paper 
files.  I particularly need to have paper copies of documents to analyze 
complex problems of identity, resolve situations of conflicting evidence, and 
identify potentially useful indirect evidence.

Your brain may work differently, but I would suspect that unless you are under 
30 years old or have a highly visual or technical way of thinking, you may miss 
a lot of clues or errors if you never print out and compare relevant documents 
side-by-side.  I see things missing or incorrect on printed family group 
sheets, for example, that I never notice onscreen.

As for filing, a simple alphabetical system works just fine for me!

Larry,

It seemed to me that Jenny understood the problem quite clearly, but since
there is no known way of identifying misapplied sources was suggesting a way
of drawing attention to the potential problem. Another way is to read the
Help Files where it is spelt out.

Re: [LegacyUG] Filing Systems Obsolete?

[cranberryfrog]

The way I file my hard copies of documents is that I have a binder for each
TYPE of document and then I file them alphabetically.  For example, I have a
binder of death certificates.  He death certificate is is in one of those
see through sleeves.  On the outside of the sleeve and put a large label
with the info on it so I can go through the book quicker and find what I am
looking for.

I know that there are people that use the Legacy ID field to number their
documents and file them that way.

So chastise Kristen, who originated this thread, and Michele, who responded

IMO, my post WAS relevant to the use of Legacy. If how (or whether) one 
maintains paper files in addition to Legacy is not relevant, I'm not sure what 
is.  Particularly if Legacy is advertising webinars on organizing.

My comments were not to any one person in particular but to the
pending thread in general.

And I have just recently broken into another thread stating that it
was off topic - and numerous persons continued to post anyway.
Starting a new thread about the same thing doesn't change the fact
that the post didn't even mention Legacy nor ask how paper files could
be linked to the Family File in Legacy.

If you feel that it's relevant to Legacy when you make a post,
indicate *how* it could be relevant to Legacy.  Michele referred to
the User ID in Legacy.

Discussion about the webinars is fine as long as everyone knows
you're discussing the webinars and not just coming in with an
off-topic post.

RE: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

[Mary Fowler Leek]

"THANK YOU", Jan, for bringing this to the users attention. I obviously missed 
the first discussion regarding this issue and had no idea this was happening.

I cannot for the life of me understand why this is now working as it is. To me 
it is illogical that it should apply to the events. I would have to say my 
sources are pretty much useless now, as I've no idea when this 'change' was 
applied. What a heartache, to say the least.

I sppreciate that Jan used the triple bar intentionally.  She did so not
realising that the triple bar pasting applied to both the fields in the
top of the screen (vital events) *where the icons are located* and those
in the bottom of the screen (Events/Facts.)

I have suggested to Legacy that moving these icons to the bottom of the
screen might mean fewer people make the same mistake as Jan, as I know
has happened before.

Re: [LegacyUG] Filing Systems Obsolete?

[Marc Scott]

I would think it would depends on how one stores their images. I scan using 
TIFF and PNG, and have a few downloads using PDF and GIF. This makes my 
computers files rather "heavy", so to speak. JPG is made "light" for 
portability, but isn't very good for archiving. a largw collection of TIFF 
images could easily take all the space up in any flashdrive. I'm not sure how 
much space Legacy has to store large files, anything besides JPG would most 
likely have to be stored externally, making portability not as easy as with JPG.

I used to print a great deal and file it all in 3-ring binders.  After
switching to Legacy some years back I found myself printing less and less.
Now I rarely print anything at all.  There are many reasons for going
paperless, but I think a major factor in the change has been Legacy itself.
My old software was clunky to navigate and had far fewer features.  I
believe that anyone who learns to use Legacy to its fullest potential can
see a way to do without most of that paper.  And if you have your data on a
portable device you don't need to haul binders along on research trips
either.  Filing is a pain, and the binders, dividers, and ink get expensive.
Much better to do with less.

Re: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

Which some would take to mean Vital events. The others are often added
later, one at a time, with perhaps more thought given as to how  best to
source them. And the symbols are to the immediate left of the primary

Re: [LegacyUG] Filing Systems Obsolete?

[1eagledad]

Marc said "I'm not sure how much space Legacy has to store large files."
 
This is like the line from Men In Black, "Size does not matter."  Legacy does 
not care how big the files are or how many you have. The only limit is the size 
of your hard drive, whether that be an internal hard drive on your computer or 
and external drive, or both.

I would think it would depends on how one stores their images. I scan using 
TIFF and PNG, and have a few downloads using PDF and GIF. This makes my 
computers files rather "heavy", so to speak. JPG is made "light" for 
portability, but isn't very good for archiving. a largw collection of TIFF

much space Legacy has to store large files, anything besides JPG would most

Re: [LegacyUG] Filing Systems Obsolete?

[Gene Adams]

Storage [i.e. memory space] is a function of the computer disk or flash drives 
used.  Not Legacy itself.  Legacy only stores a pathway link in the database to 
the appropriate TIFF, JPG, PDF, etc., telling the program where it is to be 
found and then allowing display of the document.

Re: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

[James Cook]

I feel your pain and frustration, as I brought this up at least once
in the past.  I had to open the source list for all the folks I though
I might have done this to.  I may still have some hanging around, but
I think I got most of them cleaned up.

I don't know about you, but being told 'Tsk, tsk, you should have read
the manual' didn't help me fix my data.  Software should be intuitive,
and these buttons are not (this is just another problem with Legacy
being built on an antique platform).  It would be nice if Legacy heard
our pains and frustrations with using the software, and somehow
reflected that back before telling us off.

Just my $0.02

Have you considered asking Dennis for a custom ltool. I would think it

RE: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

[Jan Roberts]

I fully realised that - hence my statement that I would normally use the single 
bar icon when I have already put information in the vital event fields and was 
using a source to update only some of the fields.  What I didn't realise was 
that ALL, included all events AS WELL.  In a way I agree with Jenny that it is 
the placement of the icon that is confusing as it seems to be associated with 
the vital events fields, whereas the additional events seem to be separate and 
in some cases you can't even see all of the events without having to scroll 
down.  And logically, how often would one have a source that applied to EVERY 
event listed, whereas having a source that applied to every field of vital 
events, where all those fields are visible at the one time to me seems quite 
likely.  Mind you, if I had customised the individual view and changed one of 
those events displayed to say, military service, then I would be unlikely to 
have ever used the three bar icon to add a source.

Cheers
Jan

RE: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

[Jan Roberts]

I think the problem is the words "every field on the Information form" - what 
you can 'see' on that form are the primary, or vital, event fields of name, 
birth date and location, baptism date and location, death date and location and 
burial date and location (unless one has customised this view).  The additional 
events don't actually show the fields which can include description, date, 
location and notes - in fact in the case of multiple events you can't even see 
all of the events without scrolling.  They aren't "on the Information form" as 
such.  Other hidden fields are in the notes areas of the vital events - does 
the use of the three bar icon also add the source to the notes?
I have read the Help files to learn the difference between the single bar and 
three bars - just misunderstood the implications.

Cheers
Jan

Re: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

[cranberryfrog]

The only time I use the 3 bar thing is when I am adding a new person.  For
example, let's say I am adding a new child found on a census records.  I hit
the 3 bar to source the name, and date of birth.  The event will already be
sourced because I set up the event on the head of household's page and then
just copy the entire event.  I have to manually source the relationship to
father and mother because the 3 bar won't source that.

RE: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

[Mary Fowler Leek]

Well, then, double shame on me :-) Goes to show the truth of what my husband 
used to tell me, "you know what happens when you assume".

I've gone back and checked some of my entries and find events that do not carry 
the same source citation as the vital events so I must have used it correctly 
at least some of the time. Still doesn't ease my pain, though, as I'm certain I 
also used it incorrectly many times. :-(

Anyway, my thanks for the tip, going forward. My bad; I certainly should have 
known, I didn't, but do now.

Mary

Note the information in the parentheses."(This also includes all

That's not something I added to clarify the Help topic. This what's
written *in* the Help topic.

Re: [LegacyUG] Filing Systems Obsolete?

[Wes]

When I scan a document or picture, I do so using the highest possible
resolution.  I then place the actual document in an album dedicated to
that person.

In Legacy, when I link to either a JPG or PDF copy of the scan, I
document the strorage location of the actual document.  This is usually
the name and location of the "album."  The original scan in PDF or TIFF
format is stored on a set of 6 TB disk disk drives that are
automatically backed up every day.

My children know how to get into my computer and find the Legacy files,
but I have no confidence that the technology in 20, 30 or 40 years will
even be able to read our current formats.  So for me at least, the paper
files are the best way to preserve my research fro future generations.

I do everything possible to make sure all documents are acid free and
inks, albums, pictures, and all other items are archival.

Wes

Re: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

[Sherry/Support]

I find it *very* useful.  Let's say you're adding a new individual
from a census record.  You have not only birth info, but can also add
a census event, residence event, occupation event, maybe property
event (to show the value of personal and/or real property), schooling
(yes, the person went to school or can read/write) etc to an
individual.

Or you have a book and have been able to add all the vitals on an
individual but have not yet added any events

Do you want to do one click to add that source to all the new things
you just added or do you want to click several times?

Honestly, this thread is the *first* complaint I've seen about the
three bars that I can remember. I started using Legacy with v2 in 1997
and have been doing support since v4 in 2002.

Sherry

Because, like the old multiple source clipboard and the "dancing icons", as 
soon as they changed it, 3 times as many users would complain about the change.

Re: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

Jerry,

Please do not assume that because some users have misunderstood the workings
of the three bar icon that others do not use daily - I know that I do.
Removing it would certainly make my work take a heck of a lot longer. Please
leave it alone.

RE: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

[M. Brenzel]

I believe that we've only heard from a handful of users who don't like this 
feature.  It clearly states in the pop-up Tool Tip which items the source will 
be added to.  Likewise, the Help topic also says "all events in the event list".

Let's not make changes to a feature just because a few people have struggled 
with understanding what it does.

Re: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

[Gene Adams]

I for one like the triple bar and use it exactly the way Sherry does when I add 
a new person to the Legacy file.  Saves a lot of "clicks" on an individual's 
vitals and events.  And I have been using Legacy since version 3.5

RE: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

[Charles Apple]

I would like to add my voice to those that DO like the three bar icon, and I 
use it regularly. When I was learning Legacy, I made the mistake of using the 
three bar icon when I shouldn't have and added sources that I didn't want to my 
events. After cleaning up my mess, I learned when to use and when not to use 
the three bar icon. Mistakes are excellent tools IF we learn from them, Success 
never taught anyone anything. Just my two cents worth.

Jerry,

Please do not assume that because some users have misunderstood the workings of 
the three bar icon that others do not use daily - I know that I do.
Removing it would certainly make my work take a heck of a lot longer. Please 
leave it alone.

RE: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard

[Jan Roberts]

Don't get me wrong, I'm not *complaining* about the three bar capability - I 
also find it very useful - at least I did until I realised that it adds the 
source in places I didn't expect it to.  I still say the Help file is not 
really clear - certainly I misunderstood it.  By 'all events' I presumed it 
meant all the vital events which is what you can see on the individual 
information screen.  To add a source to any of the other events individually I 
have to physically go to the screen for that event - I didn't think the three 
bar icon would be any different.
I will still use it, but I'll be more careful in my future use.  And I do think 
it would be a good idea, and therefore even more useful, if it only applied the 
source to the VISIBLE fields of VISIBLE events that happen to contain 
information.

Cheers

I find it *very* useful.  Let's say you're adding a new individual
from a census record.  You have not only birth info, but can also add
a census event, residence event, occupation event, maybe property
event (to show the value of personal and/or real property), schooling
(yes, the person went to school or can read/write) etc to an
individual.

Or you have a book and have been able to add all the vitals on an
individual but have not yet added any events

Do you want to do one click to add that source to all the new things
you just added or do you want to click several times?

Honestly, this thread is the *first* complaint I've seen about the
three bars that I can remember. I started using Legacy with v2 in 1997
and have been doing support since v4 in 2002.

Re: [LegacyUG] Using Source Clipboard- a cautionary note

[Anne Hollingshead]

I think a cautionary note in the Help file would assist.

If there is a common problem in using Legacy  that this list has
highlighted (e.g. that has difficult to retrieve consequences)then that
would be a good source for taking this step. Perhaps those who have
fallen into this trap could suggest some wording for a cautionary note.

I find it more useful the way it is. I pretty much ONLY use it when
adding a new individual, which is 99% of the time from a single source.
As a matter of fact, I think it would be more useful if it also sourced
the General Notes, Research Notes, Cause of Death, and Medical Notes (if
populated). But I have learned how it works and that is now engrained in
my brain.

I suppose you could always submit a suggestion to make the behavior of
the three bar button configurable by the user ... thus satisfying
everyone.

I believe that we've only heard from a handful of users who don't like this 
feature.  It clearly states in the pop-up Tool Tip which items the source will 
be added to.  Likewise, the Help topic also says "all events in the event list".

Let's not make changes to a feature just because a few people have struggled 
with understanding what it does.

[LegacyUG] Single Source Citation link to multiple People and Events

[Paul Gray]

I read with interest today's long thread on the source clipboard and the
'three bar icon' copying the source to all used fields/events. It does
emphasize the duplication of data inherent in the current Legacy database
design. If the data is identical from one source citation to another, an
argument can be made that it is by definition a single citation.

It would be so nice if we could create a single citation and then link it to
multiple people, fields and/or events.

I think a census entry provides a good example of where a single citation
linked to multiple people, fields, and events would be helpful. Let us say
one created a citation for an entire family from a census, and used that to
document residence, age and occupation for all family members.

Using a single citation which is then linked to multiple people/events, one
can explicitly see which individuals and events are related to that census
entry.

With the current design, one needs to look for 'identical', separate
citations.

Although it would probably require database changes and is therefore not
something we would see soon, I hope Legacy will consider it in a future
release.

I like and use the three bar button as well, but I would make one small 
suggestion:  Move it down about a 1/4 on an inch so that we do not accidently 
fat finger it.  Or in other words click it by mistake.

Re: [LegacyUG] Single Source Citation link to multiple People and Events

[P Kristine Hurd]

When I enter a Census record, I use the 2 icons, "Copy Event to Clipboard"
and "Paste Event from Clipboard".  I think that is a wonderful tool so much
better than copy and paste because you do not need to type the event titles
or add the source or any media attached.  It copies and pastes everything.
 I love it and use it all the time.

I also use the 3 bars as intended, usually when you add a new person, you
get the information on them from one source (usually). So it is very handy
to create the source and enter all the events, name, dates and source them
with one click.

Just my opinion, did not mean to jump in . . .
