I can't find a place on the marriage screen to indicate this woman was not

Please note that the time element is in tenths of a second. If you change
it to 99 tenths of a second you have to wait quite a while for the popup.
It is a convenient feature, in my opinion, so I don't have to change to the
child to see his/her stats.

You can change the size of that screen by clicking on an edge or any
corner when you mouse cursor is a double ended arrow. Click and hold the

This is a problem with the Windows Installer. Even though you may have
