But be careful with the wording on the other: it is Title (64 character limit) vs Caption/Description (2000 character limit): the description IS imported OK. So if you currently use title, you can at least use your image management software to copy title to description before export, then FH would ...

I will add that not all image software conforms to the standards published by IPTC. I'd love to find just one that DOES conform to the standards! It would be a good thing if FH imported at least Title/Caption and Keywords from the IPTC standard. It's a shame that the work that I do to tag my photos...

@strathglass - Keep us posted on this. I have the same question. I have checked the box in the Media preferences window to copy image tag values to the media record but none of the keywords, the description, or the caption appear in the FH media record.

Using AS, I created a 1940 (US) census record but missed some children because they were on a following page, which I did not see until I had saved the record in AS and gone back to FH. Is there a way to edit the exisiting record in AS? If I add them in FH, how can I get the information from the cen...

To close the loop on this, I discovered the problem. It turns out that AS had loaded an old version of my FH project, which I had created a while ago, probably for an insurance copy of the project if needed, and then I forgot about it. This project was never upgraded to version 7. To make it more co...

I just upgraded to the latest version of AS. I've entered 1940 US census data. Upon generating auto source text, I am only given one option to format the source text: default. That generates comma-delimited text. Previously, I was given a number of choices for the format, including rich text, which ...

Thanks, mjashby. So what I've decided to do is flag the birth event for my great-grandfather in the Facts tab to show that these births facts are "tentative" and made a note for each fact that indicates lack of proof of his paternity.

My great-grandfather's father is identified in genealogies done by people that I know and whose work I respect. But I am unable to verify the information in birth records or other sources. I am able to verify that the individual in question eventually married my great-grandfather's mother but the da...

Duh. Don't I feel stupid? That was pretty easy - just hit the delete key.

Thanks.

I would like to remove some source records that are not being used but I can't find any way to delete these sources. What am I missing?
