Well These have been around since at least version 6….seems like “other Priorities” are more important.
This subject was hashed out among testers extensively… but, never evolved into what is should have become!

It’s not only the burial pictures but pictures assigned to birth and death events as well. For some strange reason, Legacy has never included these “vital events” pictures in reports but they remain locked up to be viewed only from within the Legacy program. Shout loud enough and long enough and we might get some changes without having to resort to work-arounds. Brian in CA Water, water, everywhere, but not a drop to drink. From: Gene C. Harris [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, July 21, 2015 9:09 AM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] Include information on generated Web Why should we have to go through all this when there is already a notes field and a cemetery address field and cemetery lookup on the buried in line in Legacy? It was designed into the system. Why can't it be included in making a web page?
