Can't remember if this is the case in every version of Windows supported by FH, but If I pin the FH icon to the taskbar or start menu, and hover on it, I get a list of recent and pinned projects to choose from, so I bypass that screen altogether on startup (unless I want to create a new project). I...

Add a dark mode option or add color control to all the elements needed for a user to create their own dark mode.

If I researched properly. V6 came out in 2014. V6 book came out in 2018. Hope I got that wrong. 4 years gap.

Thank you. I will look and see what the delay was between the V6 release and the book release was.

Thanks agin.

As a new FH user I am finding the V5 version of the book (free!) very helpful in getting me started with FH and basic workflows. But of course it is missing the new topics. The website is helpful but it is not developed like a training book. I am sure V6 book will fill in some missing item for V7 bu...

Mike thank you, this is what I was looking for ... the why. I also appreciate possible solutions. Thanks to e...

I suggest you make a clone of that query (use the cog menu>Save as Custom Query) and then experiment with that. Tha...

Here is the picture. Appears as I am learning my first query ... I am learning how to post as well!

Thank you.

Working on my first custom query. Using it to learn how filters, functions, etc. work. My query is designed to find anyone alive (with estimation) in a certain year. Please see the attached pic. Top image is the column tab ... with an age column tied to a parameter ... date. The second image is the ...

I am also going to make the move to FH from RM this year. I am going to take my time in doing the work. First is to learn FH to understand how to do "daily work". I hope an update the the FH6 book is soon on the way. Second is to determine what pre-work needs to be done in RM and what post work will...
