Default is long location names. You can set to short location names in Options > Customize > View by selecting "Use short location names on screen views"
You just need to remember when you add a location, go to the Master Location List and shorten up the short name! By default, the short name is the same as the long name. In the Master Location List, click on Options > Expand/Contract Location Parts to shorten (most) all of the location names. How well it works depends on how well you follow the default pattern for locations using city, county, state, country (or something similar for non-US locations) Sincerely, Sherry Technical Support Legacy Family Tree On Wed, Jul 6, 2011 at 6:42 AM, Jenny M Benson <[email protected]> wrote: > On 06/07/2011 14:24, Marc Scott wrote: >> lso in customize, you can also have either displayed in the program >> windows. long form is the default in both. > > Short form shows in Family View and then expands to Long form when you > open an Individual's window.
