Re: Network Problems with Linux Install

@ Mark - Point of clarification, no problem with the activation/license code, what doesn't work is the phone home provide CP with your name/email and optionally subscribe to email notifications. And thanks for posting your experience Mark, I had seen it (although I'll admit when I previously skimme...

Network Problems with Linux Install

Hello fellow Linux devotees, So, I took the plunge moving FH to my Linux system about 2 years ago (Mint - now on Mint 19) with more than a bit of trepidation after reading of people's varied challenges. However it worked with minimal problem on the first try direct in the default WINE prefix (YAY!) ...

Re: more in the property window More column?

Thanks. The custom flags are certainly interesting to me the more I think about it. Given that I have trees that I'm researching with very...mixed sourcing, I'm certainly seeing the possibilities of adding both a flag for if a source image exists, as well as simply if a source of any kind exists as ...

Re: more in the property window More column?

Thanks for the reply Mike, I want to pause on the first statement that you made, as while it's not perfectly what I want, as you pointed out, the custom expressions for each fact type would be a time-consuming effort. You said ...FH V6 added Media icons, which depending on the Show Media button sett...

more in the property window More column?

A question that may belong in the Wish List category, but with the new UI in v6, I’m hoping this might just be a configuration option I haven’t found yet. When viewing Facts in the Property Window, the More column shows nice icons for facts that have media, as well as notes. It seems that a logical ...

Re: FH 5 crash on generating diagram

Fixed. Wish I'd found it while searching last night, thanks.

For additional info: Default printer was set to a different PDF generator (Foxit). I returned it to my physical printer and all is well.

FH 5 crash on generating diagram

Hey all, I'm going to be THAT guy and ask for help on the last version of the program. I'm still running v5. 5.0.11 to be specific. Windows 10, whatever version Microsoft has pushed to me most recently. Until today everything has been working smoothly. Family Historian is crashing with a "Family His...

Where are custom facts stored?

First, I really have to think that this question has been asked and answered before, but I can't find it, so sorry. I'm using FH on two computers synching data files via Dropbox. I'd like to be able to sync my custom facts between them as well, but can't seem to find where they're stored. I know I c...

Source Display by Repository?

Thanks again.
While I'm certainly not skilled enough in the development world to write my own plugin to do it, it' quite impressive to know that that level of integration functionality is within the real of things that can be modified with a plugin.

Source Display by Repository?

Thanks Mike. Given the number of views the question has had in the last few days (I'm quite impressed!) I'm guessing what I'm attempting to describe isn't possible, which is fine. Regardless, I'll try and explain myself a bit better. As I hinted at, my sourcing is pretty messy so I'm trying to find ...

Source Display by Repository?

Disclaimer: I'm on week two tinkering with FH, so forgive me if answers to my questions should be obvious... Is it possible to display the source list in a collapsible tree under their associated repository? I've added a column displaying the repo name so they can be sorted that way, which is a step...

Icons in Focus View?

Disclaimer: I'm on week two tinkering with FH, so forgive me if answers to my questions should be obvious... Is it possible to display icons associated with flags anywhere except for in a chart?  I love the feature, and it's actually something I tried to fake in the program I previously used, but wo...
