[LegacyUG] Stories show up in Descent Book although deselected

[Jens Kaasbøll]

Hi

I am running Version: 9.0.0.384

When making a Descendant Book report of 1 generation, I ticked off 
Children's Stories on the Notes/Stories tab. Main Stories was on.


I still get the Children's stories in the report.

Thereafter, I ticked off also Main Stories, and the same thing happened, 
Children's Stories are included in the report.


Any idea of why this happens?

Best regards,

Jens Kaasboll

Thanks Chris and Cathy, I now have a clearer understanding of the settings, I 
have reset my settings.

I think that I have been misunderstanding the meaning to the value we set 
for relationships, partly because there seem to be no definition of what it 
means that I can find in the help system.

I had assumed that it was the number of steps between people, so my father 
is step 1, my grandfather is step 2 (F->G), my uncle is step 3 (F->G->U) and my 
cousin in step 4 (F->G->U->C).  Hence I would use a large number to be able to 
locate my 3rd cousin 3 times removed - 11 steps.

Having been playing with the values and seeing what the effect was, I now 
suspect that it is looking for multiple, different paths between people, of 
which there are very few in my tree. They would generally be the descendants of 
a marriage between cousins with two different routes back to a common ancestor.

My apologies if I have been misleading in the past.

Regards

Chris

The default is 5. That's fine for my file of about 20,000 people. I don't have 
much pedigree collapse, no endogamy and I'm not back into royal genealogies.
In my friend's file where there are many aristocratic/royal lines entered, I 
found I stopped getting more relationships between two people when it was set 
to 30 so I wouldn't go any higher.
Whether it matters to set it higher depends on your computer. Unless your 
computer has a heap of RAM, it takes much longer to set relationships if you 
jump to 999. The number relates to the number of checks that are made for 
alternative lines between the people in your database.

There is no point in upping the non-blood in set relationships from the default 
2 as only the very closest non-blood - spouses and close in-laws are included. 
There is a point to upping it in the Relationship Calculator.

The usual recommendation seems to be set it to 10 - 20, on the basis 
that your family tree will not be that complex in terms of the number 
of generations that it needs to work through looking for a common 
ancestor. My largest line is about 14 generations.


That said, I always run with 999 blood and 5 non-blood relationships, 
and it does not seem to impact the performance.


I suppose that it would cause issues if your tree had weird, and 
probably invalid, links to work through.

When setting up the Set Relationships for a person under the Blood 
Relationships section, a number from 1-999 can be entered, I was 
wondering how many most researchers enter, I have mine set at 6, I'm 
not sure if I'm too low.
