[LegacyUG] Assigned Sources screen Column Width

2016-12-09 Thread ChasH
On the Assigned Sources screen (from the Family Screen > Source Icon 
>).On the table, is there a way to adjust the column widths 
semi-permanently. Currently I can set the width of each column so that 
the Detail column is expanded, but each time I get back into the 
Assigned Sources page I have to reset the column widths again?

Re: [LegacyUG] How best to keep track

2014-10-05 Thread ChasH
I like the event method that has been suggested. In addition to marking
it private and exclude from potential problems, you may also want to
exclude Show a description field  show a place'?  So I just record a
date. The date represents the last time I checked/verified FamilySearch
Family Tree with Legacy Family Tree. In addition, I then customized one
of the fields on the family page with my FSFT  LFT checked Event. I
use the display name, FS Checked. Now anytime I am on the family page
I can easily see the last time I did a through review between the two.
Of course if needed, once you have your event set up you could search
for that event-with a date or without a date etc. or go the tagging route.

 The To-Do list might suit your purpose, or using Events as Wendy suggested.

 Personally, I'd go with Events but the best thing is for you to try both
 and decide which suits you best.  Remember that you can mark an Event as
 Private or to be excluded from Potential Problem alerts, either on an
 individual level or globally for a particular Event Name which you might
 want to do.

Re: [LegacyUG] How do I find a specific Event ID #?

2014-05-20 Thread ChasH
I'm not sure but I think running Tools / Potential Problems report may
show the people with the bad event name.

 I have spent most of the day working on a problem in Legacy 8.0.0.427.

 It started with the discussion here about unlinking disproved
 people/lines.  Which made me think that I would really like to have
 the program put some kind of color/letter/designation of some kind
 next to people that you unlink since they show up in the Name List 
 when you are looking to see if someone you just found is already in
 your file it would let you know which ones are in or out.

 Made the suggestion.  Was told how to do it with tagging.

 Did the tagging, using tag#4 only to discover that only the first 3
 tags show on the Name List...I knew that...

 So...cleared out tag#2, tagged the unlinked people with #2, listed
 them again  went to each one to click on tag#4 to remove it.

 EXCEPT...I came to my 6th Great Grandparents...they are unlinked.  My
 5th G-Grandmother is shown as their daughter, she shows them as her
 parents.  The have a marriage date, they are shown as
 married...BUT...he is listed as my 6th G-Grandfather but she has no
 relationship shown at all and they come up as unlinked.

 So, I started delving into that when I realized that first I should
 do a Check/Repair of the file since a new update was added just days ago.

 Did that...I coming to it...have patience...

 The first item in the Error.Log says:

 There are 1 Event Name record (s) referred to that have a blank event
 name.

 We have added a new Event Definition '!Fix this Event Type-1' and the
 following records now point to this new Event Definition. From the
 Master Event Definition List you can edit this record and change it to
 the correct value.

 Event ID=5295, Event Definition Name=, Event Location=, Event Desc=.
 The Event Definition Name is now '!Fix this Event Type-1'

 I know I'm getting old and am aging even faster today but, would some
 kind soul please tell me how to find Event ID 5295?  None of the
 searches I have turned up seem to work with event numbers.

 Thank you for your patience,
 Sally

 Saving my settings is easy but having a list of them to then go about 
 Sherry's request would make it much easier to meet her diagnostic needs.

 Without that list, I'm not willing to spend that amount of time on

 Suspecting that Tech Support already have a tool to decipher cryptic USR

 select the main Legacy settings or any report or everything.

 Then, Sherry asked why I would ever need such a thing ...

Re: [LegacyUG] When to use AKAs

I customize the family view with AKA1 (1st alternate name) and AKA2 (2nd
alternate name), then I list all the different Given names and spellings
in AKA1 separating each with a space. (Heinrich Henry)I do the same for
Surnames in AKA2. (Ladendorff Landenderf) That way I can easily see all
the name variations used by the husband/wife on the family view. It
works for me.  Add sources to the Name as usual bolding the variation on
the source detail.

 A direct line ancestor, Heinrich Ladendorf, has been found listed as

 Ladendorff (an extra F), Henry Landenderf, etc. on different
 sources. There are several other variations.

 Would you list every spelling you find, or just the ones where it is

 Would you also do the same for those who are not direct line? Thanks

Couple of points, no you do not have to be a member of any particular

 But no - no one should be forced to upgrade immediately.

 Denise:

 Here are a few of the reasons you might want to upgrade to
 Legacy 8 - the new features:

 Origins Report

 Migration Report

 Migration Mapping

 Instant Duplicate Checking

 Potential Problem Alerts and Gaps

 Shared Events

 Family Bow Tie Chart -- Husband  Wife

 Descendant Chart -- L to R

 Source Quality

 Source Labels

 Source Clipboard -- 5 sources

 Pedigree Citations

 FamilySearch Integration

 Wall Charts -- Duplicate lines suppressed

 Chronology View

 User Interface -- New

 Tagging -- 9

 Automatic Sorting

 Statistics

 Media Relinker

 Media Gatherer

 Web Links

 Color Coding


 My favorites are:

 1. Automatic Sorting

 Legacy 8 sorts spouses, children, and events by dates
 automatically upon entry -- this is a major savings in time
 when it comes to data entry.  This option along is worth
 every penny of the upgrade.


 2. Statistics

The Origins Report, migration report, statistics and
 enhance mapping are great new features.


 3. The Potential Problems Alerts and Gaps  Duplicate checking

 These features are great and will definitely help keep a
 better, more accurate database of your family and events.


 4.  The Media Relinker and Gatherer are very powerful tools
 to bring your pictures together into a better structured
 location.


 5.  The new User Interface - probably should be #1 on the list

 The new modern user interface brings almost every option
 out to the user in a simple intuitive graphic icon format.
 It is so much easier to use and find what you want to do with
 this new user interface.  Without question, this is the
 single most important part of the new Legacy 8 that the user
 touches during almost any operation within Legacy 8.


 6. FamilySearch Integration

 This feature has greatly been improved and provides an
 enormous FREE resource to millions of family trees available
 at FamilySearch.org http://FamilySearch.org that is very
 nicely integrated into Legacy 8.  You can add new people to
 your tree from the FamilySearch Trees with sourcing with just
 a few clicks of the mouse. Sourcing is automatic when you add
 a person to your database from FamilySearch.org
 http://FamilySearch.org. You will find it difficult at best
 to do something similar at other websites like Ancestry.com
 http://Ancestry.com (Oh! Buy the way, that will cost you
 $300-400/year to have a membership to access their
 database).  The $30-40 price of Legacy 8 seems like a
 bargain, upgrading is even cheaper.


 7. Other new features

I won't spend time on them here, but each of them provides
 additional reasons for upgrading to Legacy 8.

In my opinion, Legacy 8 is truly the best genealogy
 software on the market today

How about a blank field or two on each template to but in the odd thing

 Terry, which BMD source template do you use?
 I've been looking for one that will work and can not find one suitable

 I agree with Jenny. I find using the BMD source tmplate just fine. I fill
 in what is there and then take a screen shot and add that to the media. A

 I concede that this would be a problem if one had to read down a long,

 limited choices at each level usually makes finding an appropriate
 template a fairly quick and easy task.

 Subject: [LegacyUG] A problem with shared events?

 I have raised a ticket about this with Legacy but that was 9 days ago and I 
 have had no response. Does anybody else have the same problem?

 The problem is this: I share a census event where the owner - head of 
 household - and one of his sons have the same name. When I do an individual 
 or family group sheet with the option to include event sharers set, then in 
 the Owner's shared list the son of the same name is missing. All others who 
 share the event include the full list. If I change the son's name, for 
 example, by adding Jr so that he does not have the same name, then he shows 
 up in the list.
