Is your internet really slow?
I use Opera Browser but just opened in IE and I saw it pop in after the 
rest of the page.

I emailed you privately showing it.

John,

Check Research Guidance for the people you are wanting to find. You'll 
find some links to Electoral Rolls there.

Re: [LegacyUG] TO LINK THE MEDIA FOLDER/FILES

2017-03-14 Thread Jane Linkswiler
Also, if you don’t keep all your pictures in one place, you can find the 
location of individual pictures by highlighting the picture in that person’s 
media gallery and see the path on the bottom of the media gallery screen.

Wam,
To see where your media attached to Legacy is, see either View - Master Lists - 
Media Folder List or go to Options - Customise 6.2 and click View Current List 
of Media Folders.
These may show the full path or use codes that reference the folders at 6.1 
[Family File Folder] or 6.2 [Default Media Folder]

Option 6.2 should reference your parent media folder. You set this yourself.

What is unusual with your folder setup is that you don't have your data at a 
different level in your folder hierarchy. More normal is Data and Media at the 
same level with Pictures, Documents etc under that or Data as the parent folder 
with Media under it.
Data\Media\Legacy Pictures\
However that shouldn't be a problem.

With your folder setup you are right that 6.2 should reference
D:\Dropbox\legacy-myname\

The default locations are
...\Documents\L egacy Family Tree\Data\
and ...\Documents\Legacy Family Tree\Media\ 
but you don't have to use these. You just set 6.1 and 6.2 to the folder you are 
using.

However you do have to have
...\Documents\Legacy Family Tree\_AppData\
This folder holds your Legacy Settings. You cannot change the name of any 
element of that path. 

RE the data. Note that your family file is .fdb. This is 
the file that holds your data. The .tc is just a minor 
associated file. The more features of Legacy you use, the more associated files 
you'll have

S electing Options>Customize I search in 6. Locations for my family file:

However, from reading the “Help” for 6.2 I had expected that just the 
path "D:\Dropbox\legacy-myname" should suffice:

-

*6.2 Default Location of Media Files*

Legacy keeps track of all the folder locations from which you have 
loaded picture, sound, and video files. If the file cannot be found in 
any of these locations, the /Find File/ window is displayed and offers 
to help you find it or let you browse for it yourself.

As y ou link pictures, sounds, video, and other documents into your 
family file, Legacy automatically records their location folders
