Good point. When Direct Line has been set, the direct line ancestors ought to show up as bold on the Marriage List (like they do on the name list).
Ancestor colors on the name and marriage lists would also be nice as an option. Curious. I just found a start at an Advanced Tagging for the marriage tags. Its under Marriage List -> Options -> Advanced Tagging. Lets you specify what you are using each tag for, shows a count of how many of each tag are in use, and lets you specify the 3 default tags. There’s also a choice back on the Marriage List -> Options menu to clear any of the 3 default tags. Unfortunately none of the other advanced tagging options are there yet (tag ancestors, etc) From: Bernd Hornung [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, January 11, 2014 11:43 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Tagging marriages Your solution, Ron, is actually going the wrong way for what I wanted, moving up the lines not down. There is probably a solution for that using your methodology. Legacy appears to "tag" individuals for the purposes of marking the direct lines (bold names and +) as well as colour coding the grandparent lines.  If any of these showed up in the Marriage List, I wouldn't need to ask. I could just scroll down, see the appropriate indication, and do what I need to do. These are the same pieces of data but seem to be divorced from each other (pun somewhat intended ). I don't know anything about how the programming works, but is there a way to have this relationship? Bernie On 10/01/2014 8:29 PM, Kathy Thompson wrote: That's Easy?????? Aside from that - not everyone uses (or wants to use) LTools - and I'd rather not clear my UserID's just to set reminders or tag more than one marriage at a time.
