Re: [LegacyUG] Mapping Function

Without going into details,  the Unicode problem could have been ‘fixed’ (those 
characters handled within Visual BASIC 6, the Microsoft computer language that 
Legacy Family Tree has been using long past its death-date); or by converting 
Legacy to be written with another Microsoft language (or more correctly, the 
framework supporting numerous computer languages on many different operating 
systems) – Microsoft .NET (using either C# or Visual BASIC .NET computer 
languages).

I think the merger/acquisition with MyHeritage would (have) complicate(d) 
things a little. See below.

Re the “Mapping Function”: It may be that the change in the last couple of 
years by Microsoft, that software incorporating the Bing Mapping API and which 
has a large number of users (which Legacy has) must now acquire licensing 
(costing significant $) became an issue intermingled with the MyHeritage 
takeover. I am guessing of course.

MyHeritage, if it is to incorporate a revamped Legacy Family Tree for desktops, 
has to rationalize its current desktop application that communicates and 
synchronizes with its customers’ online trees (I have it on my system – seldom 
used); and also to consider that the world is not all Windows (Microsoft) but 
includes iOS (Apple desktops) and even the mobile devices (tablets – Apple and 
Android) and the always-connected Google desktops running Android. Not to 
mention mobile phones (but why would anyone want to have a full-function and 
very comprehensive genealogy program on such a small screen? I think that is 
crazy).

My plan – if I were a Millennia programmer or software architect - would have 
been to transition to Microsoft .NET about 4 or 5 years ago. The NET Framework, 
which in its recent (last 3 years or so) manifestations is quite transportable 
across Windows, Unix, Linux, and the Apple and Android Unix-like operating 
systems, is powerful and versatile and of course understands Unicode and is 
available in many ‘spoken’ languages (not just English). This has been an 
obvious migration path for almost a decade.

If Millennia was/is still using VB6 for its Legacy FT, it could have considered 
Google Maps and it could have used the third-party tools (eg, a Japanese 
company) for making VB6 speak Unicode (for English and many other ‘spoken’ 
languages). The latter has been around and well-tested for 6+ years that I know 
of.  I think Google Maps would require non-free licensing.

In conclusion, I should say that this is all pie in the sky because 
circumstances have rolled over the top of one’s wish for a Unicode-compatible 
Legacy FT with close integration with Microsoft, Google, Here Maps, or Apple’s 
online mapping data and all the advantages of location  to genealogy.

Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Mapping Function


I am wondering whether this problem with the new Bing interface is related to 
the problem of Legacy not being able to accept data which uses Unicode 
characters, which most programs in this 21st century can, even Windows Notepad. 
I have raised the Unicode issue several times with Legacy in the past and have 
been told that it is because of the underlying database they use, and would 
require a major re-write of Legacy to fix, so, is unlikely to happen.

Legacy is an excellent and very capable genealogical program, but, unlike other 
popular genie programs, has this major weakness of not being able to support a 
wide range of characters in the data you enter. For example, I have ancestors 
in Hungary, but cannot enter names and places with their correct spelling 
because the English-speaking version of Legacy will not accept Eastern European 
characters, such as u-double-acute. It will accept only characters from the 
Western European character set. (Legacy versions in other languages would 
accept characters in their language of course, but only from the one respective 
256-character set ("code page"). But this is only one aspect of not being able 
to operate in a Unicode environment.

So, are we going to get a band-aid mapping facility, or is Millennia/MyHeritage 
going to bite the bullet and fix Legacy properly for the 21st century, or are 
they going to eventually fob us off on to MyHeritage's Family Tree Builder? At 
least that program can exist in a Unicode environment. Millennia's "Customer 
Service" certainly leaves its loyal users in the dark. Very sad. Come on 
Millennia, take your loyal users into your confidence - you might even end up 
losing less that way, if that's what you're scared of.

If you want to be totally depressed, check out this admittedly 2017 in-depth

Hi

The Tree Finder is identifying trees within your database that are 
not linked to any other trees. Having 198 of them is odd - I 
occasionally get an odd one, usually as a result of deleting the 
individual that joined them and left someone that was linked to him 
still in the database.


This does suggest that you have been removing individuals, but not 
other individuals linked to them. The question, of course, is whether 
that was a valid decision. If it is then it implies that the other trees 
are not related to yours and can be removed The Tree Finder allows you 
to tag each tree and Advanced Deleting allows you to delete the 
individuals by its tag. Obviously, clear the tag you want to use first 
and make sure that you have a backup.


Regarding the sources, I can follow your process and I can tag 
everyone using a specific source, but I do not get "All individuals who 
Use this Master Source 3735", I just get that without the number. In any 
case, I would then use Advanced Deleting to remove the tagged 
individuals.


HOWEVER, I WOULD NOT DO THAT without verifying that the selected 
individuals can be validly removed. If not, there is a very large chance 
of creating more trees in your database.


It would be better to verify that the additional trees are not 
required and then remove them first. Hopefully, that will remove most or 
all of the individuals using the source. If the remaining tree is then 
valid, you can remove the source, but not the individuals.

Chris

Subject: [LegacyUG] Questions regarding TREE FINDER (View>Trees) Legacy 
9 and deleting all parties in database that have one specific Source


I am trying to delete all parties and their relatives who have a 
specific Source as the people identified with this source as I do not 
want these people in my database (not in any way related to me). So I 
went to View, Master Lists and clicked on sources, found that specific 
source, and then clicked on Show List and tagged those people.  At the 
very top of the page listing all those people that are tagged, it says 
"All individuals who Use this Master Source 3735".  DOES that mean that 
I will be deleting 3735 people? I won't be deleting anyone until I get 
an answer from someone who definitely knows and has maybe tried 
deleting in this manner.




Now, how does the TREE FINDER fit into this, or does it? BTW, it shows 
that I have 198 trees and shows a count number ranging from a low of 1 
person in the tree to the highest of 9291 people, I think that's what 
it means! I tried clicking on the last person in the list (shows only a 
single person) and she does have the source I want to get rid of, is 
also a singleton entry and shows the correct tag number for those I 
tagged in the above paragraph.

Re: [LegacyUG] Mapping Function

2019-01-06 Thread Ronald Bernier
Missing from this post is the fact that Michele Simmons Lewis (Legacy
Staff) explained why she shut down the Facebook post - "The thread was
closed because I had answered the question".  "Mapping will not be coming
back in it's current form.  The developers are working on something new."

[LegacyUG] Mapping Function

2019-01-06 Thread ltsjdad
Hi, 
Found this on the Legacy Users group on Facebook:
We're approaching a year-and-a-half since the Mapping feature stopped working. 
It's way past time for Legacy to make a statement about whether they intend to 
make it function once again. Stating that they have a policy not to disclose 
what their programmers are working on is not satisfactory to the many users who 
have a legitimate interest in this feature. I'm not asking when it will be 
restored. I'm not asking what progress is being made to restore Mapping. I'm 
simply asking it Legacy has any intention of restoring the Mapping feature?
Admin has shutdown all comments on the post. 
Guess this answers the question as to whether Legacy intends to respond to 
their users.
Thanks, Steve Wilson.

[LegacyUG] Questions regarding TREE FINDER (View>Trees) Legacy 9 and deleting all parties in database that have one specific Source

2019-01-06 Thread kinhunter25
I am trying to delete all parties and their relatives who have a specific
Source as the people identified with this source as I do not want these
people in my database (not in any way related to me). So I went to View,
Master Lists and clicked on sources, found that specific source, and then
clicked on Show List and tagged those people.  At the very top of the page
listing all those people that are tagged, it says "All individuals who Use
this Master Source 3735".  DOES that mean that I will be deleting 3735
people? I won't be deleting anyone until I get an answer from someone who
definitely knows and has maybe tried deleting in this manner.



Now, how does the TREE FINDER fit into this, or does it? BTW, it shows that
I have 198 trees and shows a count number ranging from a low of 1 person in
the tree to the highest of 9291 people, I think that's what it means! I
tried clicking on the last person in the list (shows only a single person)
and she does have the source I want to get rid of, is also a singleton
entry and shows the correct tag number for those I tagged in the above
paragraph.
