Yes. Legacy 9 is tested for Win 7 and above. People with earlier operating systems couldn't use various new features. Can't recall exactly which - Hinting was one. No change with memory as far as I know. Cathy Steve Hayes wrote: On 18 Apr 2017 at 13:05, Sherry wrote: You can see the new

FYI, You can have two instances of Legacy running simultaneously, even the same version. One instance would run in a separate environment using sandboxie, a windows app. When you run it, it makes it's own copy of data files that it edits. I won't go into detail, but sometimes I find it

Re: [LegacyUG] Can I have both Legacy 7 and Legacy 9 running concurrently (different data file)?

Margaret, v9 doesn't "delete" v8 - it installs over it, like practically every other program does when upgrading. You can run v7 and v9 side-by-side but the files are not compatible. You will have to covert a v7 file to the v9 format and in v9 you will need to make a gedcom to import into v7,

I understand installing v9 deletes v8. I would like to have both versions instlled. I would do changes in v7, and when required, copy legacy data file and open it (ie no updates) in 9. Then I would go back to work on v7 data using v7 I am dependent on ltools. Thanks :) Margaret --

Re: [LegacyUG] Legacy 9 questions

It sounds to me that the new hashtag option is more like another way of tagging existing events/facts, rather than adding them. Legacy only has nine tags but the hashtag option appears limitless, therefore no need to ever clear the hashtags. I presume there would be an option for creating lists

Bob, You can change some Events to a Hashtag if you like. You'd do a search for the Event and then add a Hashtag to the Search Results list. Or add a hashtag as well. Hashtags don't have dates, places and notes like Events. Same sex marriages in Legacy 9 work fine. You can also change to
