Hello,
I saw Geoff’s great presentation on Sources on Friday great Geoff by the way! Anyway, it looked like, from his demo, now? we can pick and choose which of the 5 sources on the clipboard we want to “source”, instead of them ALL being pasted at once. . is this new since the lastest build(s)? Or did I misunderstand him? What he showed (e.g. select one source from list), doesn’t work for me, ( I am using the build from March 9, is that build 367? (not listing correctly in my download but that is another issue). It still pastes all sources to whatever event or person is applicable where I am working. So did I misunderstand his demo . .or I’m not doing it right? I know they’ve been working on this issue, but hadn’t read about any changes. . .if this is not true, how do people handle having to go back to another previous source WITHOUT pasting/copy/retyping multiple lines of information?). I know I could make a SEPARATE new master source for everything, (I do it for census items, it’s not that hard to redo w/ cut/paste w/ census information) but for individual family sources, I was trying to combine sources that are similar and easily copy specific data(e.g. a specific case or ID #, multiple line items) relevant to that particular family or situation, instead of adding thousands of similar master sources, just to prevent having to do a search and find and retype of the same source again later, when I already have it detailed for another family member. (not sure if I’m explaining myself very well. . feel free to ask for a better explanation) I also tried double clicking on the previous (duplicate) source, for example, for that previous family member in the individual assigned source detail line, brings up the source, but that doesn’t save to the clipboard(would that be an easier change from a programming standpoint than changing the multiple source function on the clipboard?) Or, how do other people do this differently? I can figure out my own workarounds if there isn’t a better way, but wondered if I’m missing something. Or, maybe, if this is as shown in the seminar, I just need the newest build?
