Hi John. If you have the Deluxe version of Legacy, you will see charting on the toolbar. If not right click on the tool bar and drag it up. Use help whenever. Select your primary person, then select charting. I think you would want a 'Ancestor Upward'. You can drag drop the boxes where you wish. Especially look at each tab for formatting the boxes, and the left side tools. You can certainly change chart types, information in the boxes, and backgrounds.
Hope that is what you may be after. If not, at least look at it. Tim Rosenlof Utah, USA Researching Southern Sweden Always --> Document<-- your work.
