You probably already know this, but I just learned it today and want to share it...
When you generate a report as a text (.txt) file, the number of characters per line (equivalent of the page width, were you printing it out) is dictated by the number in the box next to the "Text file" radio button. Seems really obvious when it is pointed out to you (thank you again, John!) but my brain isn't working that way today. I've been stumbling around editing a descendants' chart report that was generated at the standard 80-characters-per-line setting that has been set on my Legacy (probably forever!), which has always been okay before - until I came to a branch of the family tree that has at least 13 generations and that was too tight a squeeze. Now that I'm almost finished editing that file to what I want, I've learned I could have saved myself a lot of work by setting that to a higher number - 300 takes care of everything that was bugging me. Oh well, I'm not going to forget this lesson in a hurry (I hope!). :-) Wendy Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
