Re: [LegacyUG] Events descriptions
Bonjour Brian What you mention is a completely different problem that I would like to come back to later. What interests me here is the labeling of the event section in the ancestry books. There is a lot of text and it is difficult to navigate. I think, that adding the name of the person would make it clearer. This is why I thought about modifying the individual label by including the name of the person Événements importants de la vie de «b»[Nom]«/b» and the label 2, for the events related to the marriage, with the name of the couple. Événements importants reliés au mariage/union de «b»[CoupleNoms] It works for the husband, but not for the wife. It doesn't work for couples. If it works for the husband, it should work for other situations. That's why, I think, this is a bug.

Re: [LegacyUG] Events descriptions
Thank you Brian It worked for most events. Georges Another small problem The format of the book reports is far from clear. It is not easy to differentiate between the events associated with the spouse, with his wife and those associated with the couple. So I identified each in the wording. For personal events, I have: Événements importants de la vie de «b»[Nom]«/b» : And for events associated with the marriage, I have: Événements importants reliés au mariage/union de «b»[CoupleNoms] : It works for the groom, but not for the bride or for marriage-related events (see example below).

Re: [LegacyUG] Events descriptions don't display
On the individual edit screen in the area where events are listed there is a limited space on a single line for the combined Description/Place/Notes. If the Description and Place take up the available space then Notes will not show. They will also not show if you start the notes with a blank line.

Apart from the Name field, there are 4 places (fields) where you can enter Event information: Description, Date, Place and Notes. When you say you are typing in the dec/notes area I *think* you are meaning you are only typing in the Notes field and not using Description, Date or Place. When you are looking at the Individual's screen, although the Events/Facts area has a wide column headed Desc/Place/Notes you don't usually see all this information (if all three fields have been used) but just as much as will show in that column width. If, for example, you enter quite a lot of information in the Description field you will only see the start of that in the Desc/Place/Notes column and nothing else. On the other hand, if, say, you have only entered a few words in the Place field and no Description or Notes you will probably see all of the Place entry when viewing the Individual's screen. Having said all that, if all you have entered for the Event/Fact is an Event Name and something in the Notes field, you should see at least the start of your Notes...unless you have a blank line at the start of your Notes. Are you putting a blank line at the start? If that's not the problem I can't see why you are not seeing *something* in the Events/Facts area of the Individual's Information screen. You are seeing the Event Name, I presume? -- Jenny M Benson 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://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
