No I was asking for an hourglass-ish report that shows my parents ancestors and their descendants (for at least a couple generations). A number of the commercial sites do this and I had hoped that Legacy Charting would as well. Your solution only shows me as a descendant of my parents, and puts

Did that, but the ancestors are only for one person, not the couple at the center of the chart. I played and played with that chart before I first wrote, hoping it did what I was describing, but it does not. For example, it shows my parents descendants, but only my father's OR my mother's

I was very disappointed to not be able to find a way to make any marriage-centric charts in the very nifty and beautiful charting software. Legacy often lets you select marriages in its software to generate information. I would like to be able to pick a particular marriage and generate a

The ability to sit down at a program and use it quickly without a massive learning curve is a great advantage when you get a new piece of software. This is why there is are standard GUI Guidelines for windows development from Microsoft. Although it would be lovely if each new piece of software

Personal feelings about the morality or Homosexuality or other topics should not impact the feature set of genealogy software. Legacy has a place to record divorce although some people feel is it wrong. It records Wars although some people feel they are immoral. It lets us record children born

I think almost all genealogical information could be construed to be intrusive. Birthdates, why is that any of your business? Marriage date and place, very personal for some and what if we did not actually choose to get married? I would prefer not to tell you if I was married before and to whom.
