Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 7.4 now available
I just downloaded 7.4. I had been using the Family Search ID field as a storage field, and now the program will not let me empty the field. It will allow me to edit the User ID and AFN. I have only 3 people with something there, that I know of. What I had there, is the word NONE with the RIN of the person. I actually put that in the AFN field (until I find the AFN), but a few slipped in. It has apparently locked the field.

RE: [LegacyUG] Legacy 7.4 now available
It is stored in the .fsd file located in the same folder as the data file (.fbd).

My wife and I have a research database, which I keep synched by using Intellishare. I will probably go through the database with nFS, but I will want to share that information with her. Will drag and drop bring the nFS info along? How about GEDCOM? Will I need to integrate her data then just transfer her database? Or is there some other file that stores that data? -- Carlct...@centurytel.net 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/legacyusergr...@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp 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/legacyusergr...@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 7.4 now available
I have been trying 7.4 on the newFamilySearch. It works great except for one problem: The list of names on the left that are being worked on can be scrolled by the wheel on the mouse. But I often wish to scroll the screens on the right, and am used to using the wheel. When the mouse cursor is on the data screens on the right, I expect that screen to scroll with the wheel, but instead I move a name on the left list and the program obediently starts to retrieve the new data. I recognize that the wheel works that way in many programs, and I can have that problem in those programs, but it seems that the wheel would be more useful in moving the data rather than selecting a name on the list. Am I being too picky? -- Carlct...@centurytel.net 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/legacyusergr...@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 7.4 now available
Carl, I don't quite understand your question. Can you not scroll the list in the nFS screen ? Whatever the problem, you should not need to exit nFS and reload it. Possibly change your filter at the top left. You may be just looking at direct line ancestors ? If so, change your filter. Take a look at Geoff's video listed below.

RE: [LegacyUG] Legacy 7.4 now available
Carl, For now, yes. Your question reminded me that we need the ability to change the root person upon whom the percentages are based. I'll see what we can do. Regarding the scroll wheel, I, too, agree that it'd be nice to enhance this as you suggest.

I don't quite understand your question. Can you not scroll the list in the nFS screen ? Whatever the problem, you should not need to exit nFS and reload it. Possibly change your filter at the top left. The names the filter works on depend upon the one that was highlighted in Legacy when you choose nFS. Filtering just uses those same names. I have 18000 names in my database, so selecting all the names is not an option. Similarly, tag or focus requires working on the Legacy database, which requires exiting the nFS screen then re-establishing it. All I want to do is change the original highlighted name so I can use a different snippet of names to work on, but I don't see how without the exit and re-signing in. -- Carlct...@centurytel.net 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/legacyusergr...@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
