Re: [LegacyUG] Pressing escape in Notes exited and lost my added typing
I'm sorry you lost your work. Next time something like that happens, try pressing Ctrl-Z as your first step - the universal command to 'undo'. May have to press it more than once; do it step by step and wait for a response before pressing it again, so you don't undo too far and lose your work. This works in many text editor area - word processors, spreadsheets, etc. Very useful tool. Wendy J.M. Jay Ingalls said the following on 14/03/2014 5:55 p.m.: Bumped my mouse while typing in new info in an individuals general notes, got garbage on the screen, pressed escape to get rid of the on-screen garbage, and Legacy 8 exited the notes without a warning or option to save what I had typed. Not nice.

Re: [LegacyUG] Pressing escape in Notes exited and lost my added typing
In Legacy version 7.5 and before, there was a warning Are you sure you want to exit YES or NO. A suggestion was made. CTRL-Z, avery good information.

[LegacyUG] Ancestor Colors
I was checking out the various ancestor colors and testing what they would look like in the pedigree chart. Now I am unable to get them back to my original setting which was Group 1, track 4 grandparents with 4 colors. I'd like to keep 4 colors for now, since my hard files are set up this way. The name boxes in the pedigree chart are in 8 colors two-tone with light on the left side and the dark tone on the right side (split down the middle of the box). Is this a programming error or is there something I can do on my end?

Re: [LegacyUG] Ancestor Colors
You are seeing the two colour boxes because Legacy 8 now allows you to set two starting people for the ancestor colours. When a person is in both lines they will have two colours in their box. The pale colour is for the ancestors of the first person, the darker colour is for the ancestors of the second. If you set both groups to start at the same person then everyone with a coloured box will have two colours. Go to Tools Set Ancestor Colours Select the Ancestor Group 2 tab Click Clear all Group to colours That will remove the second set of colours on your boxes. Select the Ancestor Group 1 Tab Set the starting person you want to use for the ancestor colours if his/her name is not already shown Select track four grandparents option Click apply the Group 1 Colours To reset to the default ancestor colours Click the Edit Colours button Click the Reset button and choose Reset to Legacy defaults Brian Customer Support Millennia Corporation br...@legacyfamilytree.com http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com On 14/03/2014 10:08 AM, Sentz wrote: I was checking out the various ancestor colors and testing what they would look like in the pedigree chart.

(from February anyway, ) and in the last 2 days, when I go to try to select a source from the drop down choice list, I get an outline box(empty) on top of the choice list and symbols in the entry line on the top and the whole program freezes and I have to log off and start over. I have run check/repair, and it told me some source citations were empty but the repair didn't help the problem; is this a known bug or a particular issue with my computer that I need to contact support for? Thanks for any info, Pam 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).

[LegacyUG] Live or Temple Ordinances
For quite some time I have noticed that the LDS Baptism and Confirmation locations default to the wrong setting. This is happening also with data pulled from Family Tree with LegacyFS. If one of those ordinance dates is during the life of the individual, then the Live button should be set. If done after the death of the individual then the Temple button should be set. If done prior to age 8 of the individual or after the current date it is an error and should probably be detected by Potential Problems in the LDS tab. Likewise, the incorrect location setting should be reported in the LDS Potential Problems. The following SQL scripts only fix ordinances that have dates recorded. More work is needed to 1) identify sealings that were done for children that should have been recorded as BIC. 2) sealed to parents without having the parents sealed as spouses. 3) detect ordinances done before age 8. 4) ordinances performed the same day in different temples. 5) several other combinations that might prove beneficial to report in Potential Problems. This SQL script will correct the Live Baptism if birth and death dates are recorded. UPDATE tblIR SET tblIR.BaptismKind = 0 WHERE tblIR.IDIR0 And tblIR.BirthSD0 And tblIR.DeathSD0 And tblIR.BaptismSDtblIR.BirthSD And tblIR.BaptismSDtblIR.DeathSD And tblIR.BaptismKind=1; This SQL script will correct the Live Confirmation if birth and death dates are recorded. UPDATE tblIR SET tblIR.ConfirmationKind = 0 WHERE tblIR.IDIR0 And tblIR.BirthSD0 And tblIR.DeathSD0 And tblIR.ConfirmationSDtblIR.BirthSD And tblIR.ConfirmationSDtblIR.DeathSD And tblIR.ConfirmationKind=1; This SQL script will correct the Temple Baptism if death date is recorded. UPDATE tblIR SET tblIR.BaptismKind = 1 WHERE tblIR.IDIR0 AND tblIR.DeathSD0 AND tblIR.BaptismSDtblIR.DeathSD AND tblIR.BaptismKind=0; This SQL script will correct the Temple Confirmation if death date is recorded. UPDATE tblIR SET tblIR.ConfirmationKind = 1 WHERE tblIR.IDIR0 AND tblIR.DeathSD0 AND tblIR.ConfirmationSDtblIR.DeathSD AND tblIR.ConfirmationKind=0; If BaptismKind=0 then IDTRBaptism points to the Location Record in tblLR If BaptismKind=1 then IDTRBaptism points to the Temple Record in tblTR If ConfirmationKind=0 then IDTRConfirmation points to the Location Record in tblLR If ConfirmationKind=1 then IDTRConfirmation points to the Temple Record in tblTR I did not find any of the location pointers in error in my databases but there is a possibility for that error. The SQL scripts might include tblIR.IDTRBaptism = 1 or tblIR.IDTRConfirmation = 1 to clear erroneous ordinance locations when Live is switched to Temple or vice versa. Then the location would have to be re-entered if possible. These scripts corrected over 35,000 of these errors in my large database so the problem is significant.

[LegacyUG] Relationships
I've reported a number of issues/errors about how Legacy handles relationships but have just come across another strange occurrence. I have all my 4th Great Grandparents entered and one entered recently now shows on family view as 'Wife of 4th Great-Grandfather' rather than '4th Great-Grandmother' as are all the others. He only had one spouse and all their children show correctly. I've done a check/repair. Has anyone else seen this? Graham PS I would have thought correct relationships was fairly fundamental to a genealogy program but have seen no indication when the problems of incorrect relationships will be fixed.
