RE: [LegacyUG] Customize wording?
Forgive me for asking what is probably a stupid question but why all the debate about an event that didn't happen? Surely the answer is to say nothing at all. Whether people married or not has nothing to do with them having children and neither does whether they entered into some other form of partnership. Isn't it self evident that a couple with a marriage event did in fact marry and where no event is recorded it is either non-existent or unconfirmed and neither requires a statement that they did not marry.

Re: [LegacyUG] Images attached to Legacy
It's not just windows it's every system in operation, including the human brain. The bigger the book the longer it takes to read it. Common sense. It does not need to be documented. If legacy had a limit on size of graphics that would need to be documented but not this. There is no legacy limitation. However I would agree there are too many bugs in Legacy 8.

Re: [LegacyUG] Customize wording?
I too am not happy with this change. I will now have to go through my database and remove all the previously never married and no children as I have no way of knowing if these people had relationships or not. That means I can no longer use this as a quick view to see if I need to look for a marriage or not, or a means of recording no children (for those not married). I will also be putting in a suggestion that we are given a choice.

Re: [LegacyUG] Customize wording?
Brian wrote You cannot please everyone. Users complained frequently when we used never married so we changed it to a more general term relationship and now others are complaining about that. Years ago, some users (myself included) complained about Never Married and Had No Children. because (a) interpretation of married varies between users, and (b) these two statements can conflict, and should be in two separate fields. But alas no-one took notice of *those* complaints!! I agree with Pam - Legacy have changed the meaning of this long-established field, without any user consultation, and without any option to use the previous wording.Only making a bad situation worse.

[LegacyUG] Re: Getting RG78 series numbers from Ancestry.com
OK, I've cracked it. You have to search the enumerator's summary books, using the ED and RD numbers and the street address. This gives you the Summary book, which includes the RG78 piece number and the household schedule number.

I've let my FMP subscription lapse since Ancestry now have the 1911 information, but Ancestry doesn't include the RG78 number anywhere that I can find. Legacy8 has a field for that number in the 1911 census source, so can anyone explain how to get it from the Ancestry data, or is there a cross-reference anywhere which links the RG14, RD, RS and ED numbers to the RG78 number Thanks Tony Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://support.legacyfamilytree.com Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).

Re: [LegacyUG] Images attached to Legacy
Brian, For web pages, Legacy converts all images to jpeg, when both png and gif, which are the only two formats which support transparency. There really should be an option to stop Legacy doing this since all one can do is the extra work and convert them back.

If those high resolution images are bitmaps, tiff or any format that is not a jpeg legacy has to recode the format to create a jpg copy.

While that may not be a recommendation that is written in any Legacy documentation, it none the less is a recommendation that has been tested by many others and apparently followed by many others. I've noticed one other possible downside of keeping your Legacy linked media files in a high resolution and that comes into play if you even want Legacy to create Web Pages using those images. I'm probably one of the most guilty users of all who have not maintained separate lower resolution images from higher resolution archived images. Even since the introduction of version 8, the time required to create my web pages which include many photos now requires nearly an overnight operation. So it's now on my own list of things to do: resize all those images down for Legacy and keep the originals in a separate non-linked folder. (Yeah, it'll probably never get done.)

Re: [LegacyUG] Images attached to Legacy
Denise, Legacy does not lay down a limit to the size of images, but is a Windows program and as such has the advantages and disadvantages of that o/s. This includes the fact that the bigger the file the longer it takes to be read. I do not consider it unreasonable for a person using Windows knows the basics of this system.

Full documentation is essential for any product, especially computerized products. The last decade before I retired the second time I worked for a company dealing with radiation treatment for cancer patients. Project documentation was essential to the company just to obtain approval from the FDA for new products. Plus, hospitals wanted to know 'everything' about a product before attempting to treat patients. I feel the same way about the use of graphics in my genealogy, both as information sources and as document reviews when planning search patterns. (Okay, I was a trained senior investigator when I retired from the military, so 'planning search patters' is sort of expected.) I expect full information about how a software module can be used. Finding there is 'undocumented limits' to a software module concerns me. If there are limits, I need to know those limits. Since discovering the Picture Center's limits (not displaying a graphic so the contents can be read), that becomes a major problem in my research work flow. Especially since neither FTM or RM have problems displaying full, readable images from their graphic display modules. Plus, FTM allows the user to rename a file from within the software (don't know if RM does), changing all references to the new filename, which results in no 'lost file' messages. Unfortunately, both FTM and RM have other problems that would limit their use. That leaves the old software I was using, or moving to a European genealogy software product. In the meantime, guess I will just unsubscribe from this list and continue my search.

It's sort of similar to trying to find written documentation about which restaurant serves the best food in town. There is no documentation about that --- just follow the crowds and you can't go wrong. In the meanwhile, you mentioned now this limitation of the resolution of graphics in the Picture Center. I think you've misinterpreted what we've been saying. It is not a limitation. The Picture Center will gladly handle very high resolution images, albeit much slower than the lower resolutions. What we've been trying to say is What is the point to throwing high resolution images into the Picture Center when their ultimate destination is in reports and web pages where the resolution will be lowered greatly. It's like giving an entire cow to a starving man when all he wants is a hamburger.

I've waited, yet it seems your response is all that is coming. You wrote: 'I think she answered your question in the first paragraph by saying With the same number of pictures in a smaller size (lower resolution), the Media Gallery opened a lot quicker.' Unfortunately, I must disagree. My question was Where is this size limit documented? I would like to read a bit about this. That question was not answered, however I suspect the first line of your post's second paragraph (While that may not be a recommendation that is written in any Legacy documentation, . . .) might actually be the answer to my question. Unfortunately, that answer concerns me. As with many older retirees today I worked in the computer industry (large business and medical software systems in Silicon Valley) for nearly three decades. That was after retiring from the military in the early 1980s. I've been using genealogy software since the days of Roots and PAF for CPM+. The genealogy software I had used since 2002 was 'discontinued' the end of 2007.
