Tony, An program capable of capturing a web page in its entirety, including the part not seen without scrolling, is FastStone Capture. The resulting image may then be cropped and the result saved and/or annotated, etc. by the same program. John Zimmerman Mesa, AZ On 11/14/2011 9:10 PM, Tony Rolf

Regarding question 1, as far as I can tell, there is not a SPECIFIC source for a location. Instead, it looks as if you would have to use the source that goes with BIRTH, DEATH, etc., which can include both the DATE, LOCATION and NOTES about those items. It sounds like you are already aware there

Hi Tony Q2; I highlight the text on a webpage and paste it into Notepad, then clean it up (usually remove tabs and new paragraphs so that I have an easily read single paragraph for all the text) and then paste it into the source detail text (actual Source Text). That way it will print sensibly in

Tony, Re: Q2: The screen capture program I use (SnagIt) does capture the whole page by auto scrolling when it captures the web page - the final image is a longer one than when viewing through a browser. When you source a web page, also include an access date. Therefore if the page disappears af

Question 1. I have a few streets in censuses which no longer appear on maps. When I find out where the street used to be, I like to put that information into the notes field for the location. However, there doesn't appear to be a way to add a source to the notes field. In other words, when I go

Lots of different ways to manipulate this information. Here's mine. I use the census event more for research tracking and conclusion drawing. I enter the years in the event description field so that census is always the first event. This way I can see at a glance what years I have found (eg 1990

Sherry, Yes, that WILL show "direct line", but it will NOT show "blood line". In other words, it will not show if they are a blood relative or an adopted (or whatever) relative. We are, instead, looking for some way to indicate graphically if someone is a direct blood relative vs if they were ado

I've always recorded my Census information as an event; copying the Event to the clipboard (including all the sourcing) and then pasting it to all of the individuals shown in that census works very quickly once the event & sourcing has been entered that first time. Hope this is what you are asking.

Yes, it is true at the moment. Each Legacy user must make their own decision. There are plenty like myself who do use SourceWriter.For me it's not a problem since I don't exchange GEDCO's, only reports. Note, though, that time marches on, and I'm pretty sure this won't always be a limitation. On M
