I too have become disenchanted with Legacy Family Tree. One of the main reasons
I switched to it was to get hints from MyHeritage. I keep seeing lots of
complaints about the hinting mechanism not working or being down. I was also
impressed with all of Legacy's features that aren't in the other programs.
However, I don't utilize Legacy to its full capabilities. It's a bit
complicated to remember all the bells and whistles for the casual user. Now
that RootsMagic 8 has been released and gives hints from the three major sites
(Ancestry, FamilySearch, and MyHeritage) I am going to switch to it. I hear
Legacy 10 is under development but there has been no official announcement. It
will likely be more than a year before it is available. I will give Legacy
another look when version 10 is released.Robin

<legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com> Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Parents of Spouses
and children in reports I am going to chime in here! I have my own website
with a page devoted to recommending Legacy Family Tree based on the commendable
merits of the software. After waiting for so long for this “bug” to be fixed,
as well as other issues, I too must consider a change. Seems like since
MyHeritage took over, they don’t care as much as before. It’s too bad because
the company risks losing more consumers as time passes. I am hoping that
MyHeritage is not following in the footsteps of Ancestry and Family Tree Maker
where the ultimate goal was to bring everybody’s database “online”. Many
simply don’t want to do that. Agree with P Hays – unhappy is putting it mildly!

right, in the last update to Version 9 (9.0.0.393) which came in August 2021,
there was a bug introduced that prevented several reports (for sure the
descendant report) to add parents to spouses and children. I believe we waited
patiently enough for the error to be corrected. It's now almost a half a year
that we have to live with it, and it's time to fix it. If Legacy has no
intention of fixing errors anymore to Version 9, please have the decency to let
us know, so that we can look around and see if other programs are more suitable
to our needs. I for my part might just have to do that, although I really
don't want to do that. And if I could get the version before this bug was
introduced, I would use it, but unfortunately I updated all my computers to
release 9.0.0.393. I want to print a new edition of my book, and surely can't
now all of a sudden print one without the parents of the spouses and children.
I'm really disappointed.-- LegacyUserGroup mailing
