Thank you Cathy, I will try what you have suggested in the morning. My drive with the media in it is attached, but it doesn't seem to have found it. Could it be because it was associated only with Legacy 7.5 and I used sub folders. Donna Sent from my iPad On Jul 16, 2014, at 7:57 PM, Cathy

[LegacyUG] Descendant chart -- 3 generations with spouses

How do I get Legacy to create a 3-generation descendant chart with spouses for everyone, but no great-grandchildren? In other words I want 1) the ancestor, 2) his children, their spouses and 3) children and those children's spouses -- but no great-grandchildren. Also, is there an option

I do not think that is possible in the chart. You cannot include the spouses for the third generation without also including their children. There is no fit to one page option for any chart except the pedigree charts. Brian Customer Support Millennia Corporation br...@legacyfamilytree.com

Pat, You should be able to achieve this by the '# Gens' selected. The great grandchildren in your example would be the fourth generation, so selecting '# Gens 3' prevents the great grandchildren from appearing. There are some things you can do to try to get your chart on one page. I

Tag the individuals wanted, then use the Name List print options.  You could output to a spreadsheet (CSV format) and then use the spreadsheet to show what you want.  Alternate surname spellings is another problem.  Unless you have been compiling the alternate spellings somewhere, you are
