Jennifer, It rather depends on what one means by assigning. The is little, or no, repetition when used in an assigned source. Ron Ferguson http://www.fergys.co.uk/ -Original Message- From: Jennifer Hershberger Sent: Wednesday, March 30, 2011 4:05 PM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com

Hi Dick I would love to be able to change the style of the Legacy FGS, but reasonably happy with the content (fine tuning options would be good). The Legacy format has far too many lines and boxes - I have set a style for my records with pages with a line around, but otherwise clean. Even with no

Rather than using the FGS, I have been using the timeline (a.k.a. Chronology) which places everthing in date order and can include the event notes as well. - Original Message - From: Dick Nixon nixon.d...@gmail.com To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Sent: Wednesday, March 30, 2011 2:27

Following generally accepted genealogical standards for researching our ancestors leaves plenty of room for all of us to customize our research to reflect our individual preferences. I agree that there could be more options for customizing the Family Group Sheet, however, of the Family Group

Brett: I was referring to the optional inclusion of data, like notes or certain dates, not page formats. You are right about that. But take a look at the report generated by the chronology tab...it is 'cleaner' as far as boxes and lines. I am thinking that adding certain events and using this

Yes, thanks! I have been thinking in that direction myself. It does work pretty well for individuals but, of course, doesn't address the family group like a FGS does. What else do you do with the chronology? Do you add new B, Bap, M, D, Bur events, with notes, to be be consistent? Adding them

You can include that Chronology Report with both the Individual and the FGS. To add the Chronology Pages for the Husband and the Wife, following the normal FGS report, select Include Chronology pages then click on the Chronology Options button on the FGS Report screen. Same procedure will add

Not all programs support the use of Alternate Names and GEDxlate may be one. Usually in those cases the last name that is output in the incoming GEDCOM becomes the Name. That seems to be what is happening in your case. Brian Customer Support Millennia Corporation br...@legacyfamilytree.com

I had forgotten about the Chronology option... It *almost* does what I'm looking for: preferably, it would be a separate report (I could live with it as part of the Individual Report, provided an option to export as RTF was added).  The only thing that is missing is the ability to include the

The Modified Date of the highlighted person appears in the extreme bottom left on the family view or pedigree view. That date gets updated to the current date when you click Save on Edit Individual screen. There are lots of changes you can make without updating that date, including changing a
