Larry - What I would like is the following in Legacy Charting Under Appearances > box items - to have the option of adding an event if desired. I have created an event named Occupation1 in which I have just entered the occupation of an ancestor in the description field. Most of my ancestors had only one occupation, but if they had more than one I enter them as joiner/undertaker. I can make this event private if I am creating a narrative report so it does not show up there. But I could uncheck private and add this event to a chart if the option was available, under the dates, formatted as desired. Family history magazines often show charts with the occupation under a person's date in their box and you can often see several generations of a family following the same trade and personally I think this is a useful addition to a chart. You can also see at a glance if occupations change in different families around the same time if looking at an ancestor chart, this helps suggest some social or economic change occuring at that time. Another events which could be used in this way if desired is Religion. I am sure people could think of others. Personally I would probably only add one event if the option was available, but again other people may disagree. I hope this makes sense.
