[LegacyUG] Missing Captions in Legacy 8 (imported from FTM 2014)
Hello. My Legacy 8 found and linked to the images in the GEDCOM file I imported from FTM 2014. But only some of them have captions! The images will a filename such as 023567890.jpg or Media 0152 came across with their respective captions such as 1901 Canada Census - George Martin and Will and Ethel Potter. But images with filenames like William Potter 1926 that also has a caption in FTM William Potter 1926 came across to Legacy 8 will no caption. I'm at a loss to explain why some do and others don't have a caption. When I go to a person's Media file in FTM the caption's are all there. When I go to the same person in Legacy 8 only some captions are there. Does anyone know what I can do to have the captions dhow in Legacy 8? If not it looks like I will have to open both programs and copy from FTM and paste into Legacy - a job I would like to omit if possible as I think I have a good 1500 to 2000 images without captions. Thanks!

Re: [LegacyUG] Land records and Legacy 8
Do these land records work as shown at http://tinyurl.com/lrzcvcr for Canada? Seems to me there are far easier ways of obtaining records for some provinces even if the LDS offers them. I enter them as an event entitled Land Ownership and attach the original copied documents in the Pictures area. I've found so many errors at Family Search and a stonewall attitude when pointed out to them that they're almost a waste of time except for official records. Even then, I'd prefer to find the record on Ancestry, if possible, so I can have a copy of the original document.

Re: [LegacyUG] Shared Events - is this a known bug
Jenny, Make a report for the person/family which contains both the main person and someone who shares the event and see what appears there before submitting your problem report. From your explanation it may be that what you are calling an error is only the sentence preview at the bottom of the screen which in Legacy 8 for shared events is NOT taken from your actual entry. The notes portion is only a placeholder representation of where your note will be in the sentence. If there is a problem you are going to have to submit it to supp...@legacyfamilytree.com. Include screen shots of what you are seeing and where.

On the latter screen, you get Shared Event/Fact, Description, Date, Place Notes at the top of the screen, and if you select Add the main event notes to the sentence the full sentence appears at the bottom of the screen.

[LegacyUG] What's In This Update File
I've seen this response to several problems that have been reported and the fact that the remote support personnel are being told what's included in the next patch is the very thing that I asked about two weeks ago. That idea didn't seem to go over very well with Millennia support claiming it would be too much of a requirement to take the programmers off task yet it appears that such a text file of What's In This Update does exist. Why can't the users see the planned upcoming fixes then so they won't have to report on problems already in the queue? Am I missing something here or does such a text file already exist?

Re: [LegacyUG] What's In This Update File
The fixes pending in a new release is part of our bug tracking/reporting and we do NOT advertise that list. It changes as bugs are reported fixed, tested and bug reports are closed or reopened if the testing fails so it is a moving target. It is also not a text file it is a web site where the status of individual issues are recorded. I can say the issue in this case is in the next release from the status of that one issue.

From your explanation it may be that what you are calling an error is only the sentence preview at the bottom of the screen which in Legacy 8 for shared events is NOT taken from your actual entry. The notes portion is only a placeholder representation of where your note will be in the sentence. Just to cover all bases, I just ran a Report because I couldn't remember whether I had done so before, but I knew I didn't actually need to because I was not only seeing the These are Event Notes in the Sentence Preview, but looking at the original Event for the Sharer the Event Notes I originally entered had been replaced by These are Event Notes.

[LegacyUG] Legacy interface to Family Search: 2 potential Problems/bugs
When I am in the Possible Match tab window the (I) icons on the Family Search pane are there but not available. It makes it difficult to accurately determine whether the individual is a match or not because you cannot get any detail. When in the Possible Duiplicates tab window, the (I) column disappears behind the vertical scroll bar. You can grab the column and resize it to show, but when you move on to the next or other individuals, the column disappears again. It appears random - sometimes the column remains for following individuals. Normally one would be able to save the layout so the column always shows, a la Excel or Access. Using Win 8.1 on a 14 inch screen laptop.

Re: [LegacyUG] Chronology Tab screen display.
Wendy, The List style is fine but in my Report stye the font is much smaller than yours - it takes about 40 lines of text to fill the screen, and I can't find anywhere to change the size (other than CTRL-mouse roller, and that doesn't stick). In the List style it takes only takes about 21 lines to fill the screen and the size is OK. Screen fonts under Customise 10.1 and 10.2 don't seem to make any difference. I wonder why your report style is different? In L7.5 it was the same small font on this screen, ant it seems well out of line with all the other main screen fonts.

Re: [LegacyUG] Quick Viewing of some Reports
Wendy, What Mary was talking about I think is in Legacy7.5, when you generate a pedigree or descendant chart using the icons on the toolbar, there is a brief flick through the Pedigree or Descendant Chart setup screen and the the chart appears. If you generate these charts in L7.5 by going through the reports menu then your case occurs - you need to hit Preview to get the chart. The toolbar icons she is using were probably not in the default setup but she has added them from the icons available. Pedigree and descendant charts initiated from toolbar icons in Legacy 8 take you through the same path as if you started from the Report Menu, and you must hit Preview to see the chart. I prefer this new system because in L7.5 I often had to go back and reset some of the setup parameters and have a second go at the chart.

[LegacyUG] Shared event question
I've just started to play with the shared events in V8 and have hit a small snag. Under V7.5, whenever I had a marriage certificate I would enter the marriage details for the couple. Then I would add a marriage event called Witnesses where I would list the witnesses names. If the witnesses were in my tree I would add a Marriage Witness event to the people concerned. This bit is easy to replace with the shared event. I would also add an event to each of the couples fathers. This was an occupation event and the sentence reads (in part) [OnDate] [Notes] said he was a [Desc] So we might get On 16 Jun 1896 his son George's marriage certificate said he was a labourer. This is the bit I can't see how to replicate. I tried setting up a Groom's father role so I could build the basic part of the sentence but I can't see how to get the occupation into the shared event. Essentially, I need to add information from the certificate which isn't in the base event. I'm guessing that this is impossible, but I live in hope. Advice would be appreciated.

The sentence would be something like On 16 June 1896 he was the Groom's father at the marriage of George Smith and Sally Jones.

This was an occupation event and the sentence reads (in part) [OnDate] [Notes] said he was a [Desc] So we might get On 16 Jun 1896 his son George's marriage certificate said he was a labourer. This is the bit I can't see how to replicate. I tried setting up a Groom's father role so I could build the basic part of the sentence but I can't see how to get the occupation into the shared event. Essentially, I need to add information from the certificate which isn't in the base event. I'm guessing that this is impossible, but I live in hope. Advice would be appreciated.
