Basically what you said in your 2nd paragraph is what I do in One note. I
was not interested in adding extensive info on just a couple of

Syble,
I don’t think that is anything that the programmers would be able to format
because it is too complex and has too many variables. Chromosome mapping is
very complex and to try and record which chromosome and which segments two
people match on is just not doable. In this case it would be best to have a
way to consistently document this on each person.
I would create a DNA event and here is why. One big reason is you can attach
an image file of the chromosome map to the event. I think this would be a great
idea because you would have it at your fingertips without having to access the
website every time and have to input who you want to map it every time. If you
do a chromosome map on two people you then would copy that event to both. If
the map shows 5 people then you can copy it to all five (FTDNA allows up to 5).
The chromosome map itself is color coded and there is a legend right on the
page. You could have as many DNA events as you want for each person showing
different comparisons. There is also plenty of room for notes.

Basically, say if I have a match, 2nd cousin once removed, the common ancestor
is a Great uncle & his wife, this person matches on more than one chromosome
number and segments, we do Not know as of yet which is the match, is it the
uncle or his wife, someone married cousins way back. So this is a person I
don't know, maybe someone e-mails me months from now on a particular line or
maybe I'm scrolling through Legacy name list and open that person's file (which
in my setup is the Family Page), I'd like have something on that screen about
the DNA match, maybe DNA -Smith/Brown just something noting that her/his line
goes back to my common ancestor Smith/Brown. Obviously, to show on that
screen, it's going to be something I have entered from the Individual's
information screen.
I'm not wanting Legacy to keep tract of my DNA records, as I said in a previous
e-mail, I use One-Note for that and I've been very pleased with it), (others
use EverNote). I do add a DNA Event on some in Legacy, but I make those
"Private", so I've just decided One-Note is best for that. Yes, sometimes our
needs/wants change and I know that Legacy can't change with everyone's wants.
Thanks for at least responding.Syble
