Re: [LegacyUG] Separate a tree

[Cathy Pinner]

Diane,
Read the message I sent almost at the same time as Carrie. I gave you 
more information on how to tag this branch.


Tagging and exporting will not delete. That's another step that I'd be 
very slow to do. You are crippling your ability to share his family 
history with your grandson.


However, if you must, you use Tools - Advanced Deleting. Make sure you 
first a) make a backup of your data file and make sure you know how to 
use the backup.

b) untag his mother.

Thank you for replying, how do I tag all of the lines? There are quite
a few.. Sorry I don’t know how. I am assuming if I do this it will
delete what I tag. And how do I create this part as a stand alone tree?

I am wondering if it is at all possible to separate a tree? I have my
grandson as the main person and would like to remove the paternal side
and make it it’s own tree, right now you can see the paternal side and
maternal side and I no longer want it that way. I hope this makes
sense. Thank you

Diane,
You can change your start person (Options - Set Startup Family).
You can unlink your grandson from his paternal ancestors if you want to 
- that makes them a separate tree within your family file.
Both I think are preferable to making another family file which is 
probably what you mean by "a separate tree." But if you really want to 
export them to another file, you can go to his father and use Advanced 
tagging - Ancestors - Entire Ancestor line. That will just tag your 
grandsons paternal tree unless there are more links between the branches 
than his parents. His mother will also be tagged as part of this but you 
shouldn't be.

You then export the tagged group to a new Legacy file.
That doesn't remove them from this file.
