Hi Laura, > 2. I already have it set to show direct line in BOLD - not able to see > any difference > 3. I already have each direct ancestor appear as the preferred child - > can't see any asterisk next to the name
I had forgotten, until you mentioned it, that the bold didn't show on my computer for a long time. I never knew why. I can't remember now what triggered its appearance, but it was either switching to a new computer or a Legacy upgrade/update. I use the Arial font, and the bold is very obvious to me, in the children listed in Family View, and in the Names List. For the asterisk, do you have checked the box that says "Indicate Preferred children in Child List (*)"? Options > Customize > Data Format. I wouldn't have thought from the wording that would affect it showing in Family View, but perhaps it's worth investigating. If you've got everything set as it should be, and it's not doing what it's supposed to, you should probably contact Support for assistance. In case anyone is wondering what the bold lettering and/or the asterisk should look like in Family View, I've taken a screen shot and uploaded it to my Facebook account so I can share it here.

Child #7, Susan Mary Craske WATSON has the asterisk and is in bold.
