[LegacyUG] attaching webpages as source (L8)

I've recently added lots of webpages as source and consider it to be a great enhancement. I'm adding pages from Family Search, FindAGrave, WikiTree and others. I'm wondering what others think of it as I don't see much talk about it. Also, I've checked how these sources port to Families app for

RE: [LegacyUG] Calendar Creator

Thanks Tessa I don't have any private events either. I have asterisks in boxes where there is just one event so I don't think it's a size issue but if I change the paper size to A3 it works!. Graham -Original Message- From: Tessa Keough [mailto:murke...@gmail.com] Sent: 06 May 2014

RE: [LegacyUG] Calendar Creator

You were right - it is a size issue. The default page margins are way to big. G -Original Message- From: Tessa Keough [mailto:murke...@gmail.com] Sent: 06 May 2014 20:09 To: legacyusergroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Calendar Creator Definitely odd - I just ran the calendar

Re: [LegacyUG] pdf's

Hi Brian, When I checked on updated on Acrobat 10 it told me there were no updates. After your remark I checked the net and found XI - downloaded it and he presto all is back to normal. Everything is opening in Adobe XI on my files and in Legacy! In answer to your comment concerning right clicking

RE: [LegacyUG] pdf's

Before we confuse anybody, Adobe Acrobat XI is the full program which allows you to create and edit PDF files and sells for $299 for the standard edition. Adobe Acrobat Reader is a freebie but only allows you to view and read PDFs. I still find it strange why Legacy could not open your PDF

I have to agree with you, Cathy.  It was perfectly flexible before this change in v8. ;) At the very least, they could have had it default to checked in the conversion to v8.   --Paula  From: Cathy Pinner genea...@gmail.com To: legacyusergroup@LegacyUsers.com

[LegacyUG] failure to print most recent generation in descendants book report

I have obviously gone wrong somewhere and checked or unchecked the box I need to get my descendants book report to print, as a separate generation, the most recent generation of my family line. Some time ago it printed the sixth generation just fine. Now it stops with the fifth generation. Why? I

Re: [LegacyUG] Name List

Do you have display of married names and/or AKA's turned on? We have a problem report recorded in our system for the sorting order in the Name list with those options turned on. If you turn off those two options the names should sort in Chronological order if you are sorting by given or surname.

RE: [LegacyUG] Name List

With the cursor in the Surname box, the sort is by Surname, then Given Name(s), then date of birth. So all the John Does are sorted chronologically by date of birth, but John A. Does and John B. Does will sort after all the John Does with no middle initial/middle name. I assume that you are

re: [LegacyUG] failure to print most recent generation in descendants book report

Judy, 1. Make sure there 7 generations of descendants from the starting person. 2. Make sure that there are no broken links (disconnects) in the descendant line. 3. Check/repair your family file. Click on File File Maintenance Check/Repair and follow the prompts. If any error messages occur

Re: [LegacyUG] failure to print most recent generation in descendants book report

By default the report does NOT include any separate entry for a anyone has no children in the following generation. For example if a child of generation 2 is married but has no children there will be no entry for that child in generation 3, instead the details of their life, including any spouse

Re: [LegacyUG] Sequencing Children

Hi Chuck, You don't say which version of Legacy you are using. In Legacy 8 on Family View in the top right corner of the Children area is an icon to access a Child list where you can reorder, set status and parent-child relationships. One of the ways Legacy 8 is less reliant on right click menus.
