I have to admit I do not know why this occurring for you. But do you feel up to doing a test? Please try this:

1. Make and save a copy of your family file, please!
2. Go to Tools » Set Relationships. Click the Clear Relationships. This should remove all your relationships.
3. Go to your preferred starting person.
4. Go to Tools. » Set Direct Line as Preferred. Click that person as your preferred line.
5. Still at the preferred starting person, go to Tools » Set Relationships.
6. It's up to you, but I set my Blood Relationship value to 50. You can go higher. Just don't go to the max- I have problems myself when I use 999 for this value.
7. I set my Non-blood Relationships to the max- 10.
8. Click "Set Relationships."
Of course, you know all this already. :-) But I am wondering if going through this

rigmarole will correct the problem immediately for you? Could you let us know? This works for *me* but I am hoping it will work for you by correcting whatever the problem was.

Thanks.

Robert

Another quirk.  When I set the blood relationships to closest 1 and
non-blood to any number, the ancestors specified in the first case are no
longer related.  What?  That parameter was not changed!

Subject: [LegacyUG] Relationships not working - AGAIN

I am again having relationship problems with the database.

Bad enough that the relationship that shows in Family View and o Pedigree
View are not the direct relationship but the closest relationship.  Many
agree with me that THAT should be the default or, at the VERY least, an
option!

However, I now have ancestors that are listed as NOT direct ancestors by
Relationship Setting or Calculating.
They are correctly shown as direct ancestors by Ancestor Colors and by
direct ancestor tagging.

I have a 29th GGF and GGM who had two children.  One is shown as 28th GGM,
but her full brother is shown as 28th GGU and his wife as Wife of 28th GGU.
Right clicking on the + next to the Relationship to see other relationships
does not list as another relationship the fact that they are my 28th GGF and
29th GGM.  And, all their descendants are incorrectly calculated by
Relationship Calculator!

I have my Relationship Calculator set to find the closest 20 relationships
and closest 2 paths, as Brian had me do when I last had this problem.

It must be a bug if Ancestor Colors and Ancestor Tagging can make them
direct ancestors but Relationship Calculator cannot.

Anyone help?
