If you enter her as a child of you and your wife, she will not have the 1/2. If you also enter her as a child of your wife and her father, she will be listed both as 1/2 and regular under each family.
You can enter her as a child of you and your wife. Then right click the list of children, and click on "Children's Settings..." Highlight her name and specify Relationship to Father: Adopted, and Relationship to Mother: Biological. You can also enter her as a child of your wife and her father. In Children's Settings, specify Biological and Biological, respectively. She now shows up twice under each family, once as 1/2 and once as regular. Hope this is clear.
