[LegacyUG] Re: Gathering media files in Legacy 8
I managed to sort out this problem, I have many files archived on various external US drives so I plugged in one of these and set off the Media Relinker it found all except for about half a dozen so I printed out the list then let it Gather all these files and the ones scattered around my internal drives. I now have all the files in one folder. I will go back some time and find the missing files as I will have copies somewhere.

[LegacyUG] Photo Printing in Reports
I have looked through the help menu but either can't find or have overlooked the information I am looking for. I am printing various reports and I note that all the photos are printing on the right hand side of the page. Is there any way to place the photos at random while still keeping them within the event they relate to. Thank you.

[LegacyUG] Edit in family tab
Hello Group, I have my legacy opened to family Tab and I'm viewing a cousin and in the section for Dth Cau I want to add her cause as Ventricular Heart Failure. How to I add the change? Also, if my grand father had an Italian first name, but he went by an American name how would I make note of that?

[LegacyUG] Lengthy notes in Legacy 8
While online, I met a man who had been studying the Civil War for years. He wrote a rather lengthy story that was likely to be a very interesting true story of my great grandfather's experiences in the Civil War. It seems to me this story should be placed in the general notes section, but I want to be sure I'm not mistaken about this. Or maybe it really has no place at all being there?? It is possible that the man he wrote about is not my great grandfather (because of spelling variations), but has a high percentage of being him. If it should not go in the general notes, where should it go? Thanks for any suggestions.

RE: [LegacyUG] Edit in family tab
Richard, Click on the Medical Notes tab on your cousin’s Individual’s Information screen. There you will see the field for the cause of death as well as space to write any additional notes. I would record your grandfather’s birth name (that which was recorded on his birth certificate or baptismal/christening certificate) as his main name and then I would add his Americanized name as an AKA. I might also write a little note explaining that he preferred his Americanized name. Another thing you can do is use a name in quotes in the given field. If you go to the Help file and type in quoted names you will see how to do this AND when it is appropriate to do this instead of using the AKA field.

Re: [LegacyUG] Photo Printing in Reports
No, the picture location is hard-coded in and can't be changed.

Version 8 will install quite separately to 7, so you can keep both if you want to. STRONGLY recommend that you allow Legacy 8 to install to its default location. It will put your data, media etc into a folder within My Documents. Once you've installed, tell it to open an existing file and navigate to your current family file. Legacy 8 will offer to copy (copy, not move) this to the new location and then convert it. This is also the recommended method. You cannot open the Legacy 8 family file in Legacy 7, but you will have your old version of the program and the file if you want to keep them. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).

Re: [LegacyUG] Just getting back to Legacy
Before you install version 8, make a backup file of your database on another hard drive or on a CD, just in case something goes wrong! I did not follow the steps in the install procedure, but have it workingG. Version 8 installs in a different area if you follow the standard install steps. Quite easy. Version 7 will still run, but do not use it! Just install version 8 then go through the normal operations. The menus are much different, and I dislike many of those changes, but can adapt. At your direction, it can search for and find existing Legacy files on your computer and convert them to version 8, and will also find gedcom files. Be sure you select your latest files if you have more than one. I have many databases and that has caused me some problems in the past. The new options for media re-linking and copying the media files to one location in the Legacy folder is a good idea, but not working correctly for me yet.

Will the ver 7 ver 8 installations interfere with each other? Version 8 will install quite separately to 7, so you can keep both if you want to. STRONGLY recommend that you allow Legacy 8 to install to its default location. It will put your data, media etc into a folder within My Documents. Once you've installed, tell it to open an existing file and navigate to your current family file. Legacy 8 will offer to copy (copy, not move) this to the new location and then convert it. This is also the recommended method. You cannot open the Legacy 8 family file in Legacy 7, but you will have your old version of the program and the file if you want to keep them.

I like the show ½ kids feature, I think it's good, but I'm puzzled as to why they do not show up in date order. I understand and agree that any children of the current marriage should show first, but why do the ½ kids have to be separated quite so starkly with all of his kids shown first, then all of her kids. I personally think it would be nice if the children could actually display in birth order regardless of full or ½ relationship with the shown parents - especially since the Show ½kids is an optional thing What do other people think Am also interested in comments from the Legacy programmers or support as to whether it's something that might be possible to implement or not.

Re: [LegacyUG] Children View - Show ½ kids
yes - and that part is fine - but why should the half kids of each former / subsequent marriage be separated? Basically, I'd like to be able to see easily what kids of each marriage are a similar age to each other, and therefore who is likely to still be at home at any one time.. Having the 2 kids of the current marriage born 1880-1884 first is great, but then having the 8 kids born between 1862 and 1877 from his first marriage and then having 5 kids born between 1865 and 1879 from her first marriage - just looks messy - especially when it's very likely that all the kids born between 1869 and 1884 are living at home at the same time.

RE: [LegacyUG] Children View - Show ½ kids
Inferring from your post, your couple married about 1879. Many times children from separate marriages where not all living together in the new blended family. Some were on their own, many were with the family of the former spouse, et alia. A genealogical program needs to account for all these possibilities, not just your own particular ancestral circumstances. I, for one, have a surfeit of mediaeval families in which children remained with the families of the former spouse or elsewhere. Home was definitely not with the latest couple.

[LegacyUG] Endless Loops and Ancestor Book
Completed my research in Quebec and want to make an ancestor book. My lines go back to some of the first inhabitants of Quebec, hence I have numerous common ancestors for a variety of descendants. Ran the program and I have 40 endless loops. Question 1: Is it the common ancestors that are causing the endless loops? Question 2: I need suggestions of how to be able to put into the ancestor book format. Thank you, Diane Please revise my email address to: dia...@wavecable.com.

Re: [LegacyUG] How to add children?
You don't have to put anything down for the father, if you don't want to. You can have just the mother, and Legacy will put a 'placeholder' father in to deal to the necessities of the database, but you won't have an actual person to deal with. When/if the time comes that you find out who the father is, add him as a husband to that woman, and you'll see a checkbox asking if he should be also added as the father of the children. But if you do want to put a person in for the unknown father, if it were my database I'd give him a first name only (no surname), and put it in privacy brackets so it can be omitted from reports when desired. Something along the lines of [[Husband of Elizabeth]]. My personal preference would be the first option - no father entered at all. You may find out later that the kids have different fathers, and it would be easier to update the data if they didn't already all have the same phantom father. Hope this helps. :-) Kind Regards, Wendy Richard Falzini said the following on 22/02/2014 5:23 p.m.: Yes I know I can add the children with the mother in family view.

Re: [LegacyUG] Children View - Show ½ kids
If you want to create a report that accommodates your special circumstance, that is quite easily accomplished. How? please explain further? On 22 February 2014 14:44, CE WOOD wood...@msn.com wrote: Inferring from your post, your couple married about 1879. Many times children from separate marriages where not all living together in the new blended family. Some were on their own, many were with the family of the former spouse, et alia. A genealogical program needs to account for all these possibilities, not just your own particular ancestral circumstances. I, for one, have a surfeit of mediaeval families in which children remained with the families of the former spouse or elsewhere. Home was definitely not with the latest couple.

Re: [LegacyUG] Children View - Show ½ kids
Kathy, If you can explain how you would accomplish that logically in the programming side, it might be doable. But your are asking to see something that is technically almost impossible considering the real genealogical links (via biology) and the family group as a living unit. How is the program supposed to decide who belongs where?? Legacy is already so versatile overall it can accommodate recording all the variations into a database.

Re: [LegacyUG] Children View - Show ½ kids
yes, create an event called Census and then use one of the parents as head of household then via shared events add all the others who were living in the house at that time But you cant expect the pc program to know who from the first or second family was still living with the third family. , unless you create some new rule like all children from a former marriage automatically get blended into a new marriage would you want that as a global rule for your file now???, I doubt it. ..
