Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Cutomising family view information

Hi Jennifer

No need to move from Legacy for what you want. You can save a number of
different display settings and easily switch between them as you need to.

In Family view, right click on the frame where the display names are, and
click customise. First Save your current settings and give them a name to
suit - you might call it 1 = "people". Then change the names to the ones you
want for the dogs, and save them - eg 2 = "dogs". You can then right click
and switch the display by selecting from the list of your saved settings.

You can also use the saved settings for changes to the display more "subtle"
reasons.

Cheers, Brett

Apparently if I change the family view information on one file it changes it
on all of them. Is there any way around this? I want to use one file for my
daughters dog breeding and use more appropriate display names, such as
changing "Christening" to the dog's registration number.

Maybe I will have to use a different program altogether, but I was hoping to
use Legacy. It need not be too fancy.
