The first ones are there because you have defined absolute location for the files, that second lot is because you have defined a relative location.

Pick out one multimedia file from both types and look at the record for it. You will quickly see how the references for the files is different.

I would like to see sources for items such as notes, that can have multiple people linked to, printed / included in the reports. Currently the note is put in, but nothing about where the note has come from etc. http://www.fhug.org.uk/wishlist/wldisplay.php?orderby=wlwlcrtdate&orderseq=DESC&wlwlref=4...

OK, just wasn't sure. Thought there might have been an option to turn this on / off.

Does seem a bit of odd behaviour to me, I will add it to the wish list forum for consideration / movement onto the list.

While entering a new multimedia entry using the multimedia tab of the records window, using the tab key fails to move the cursor from the format field. Is this meants to be the case? It works for all the other fields and enters the format field, but wont leave it. I have to use the mouse to get to t...

I have a note associated with a number of individuals, which has a source linked to it. When you generate a report, such as an individual summary report, the note is included in the report, but the source is not.

Is this how it is meant to work?

The limitation is your printer driver, not the FH program.

It is view only, it is not an editor.

There was a recent update, now it can display a family tree as well.

If you go to the download page, http://www.fhug.org.uk/cgi-bin/index.cgi?action=downloads, there is a table at the bottom that lists the most recent uploads, and the very first one is Property Box customisation - Military & Census, http://www.fhug.org.uk/cgi-bin/index.cgi?action=downloadinfo&cat=fac...

No, I try to avoid it as much as possible.

Sorry scrub that, just found out that you can't have two versions on the same computer. Very weird. First software package I have ever used that stops you having multiple versions on the one computer, very weird.

Can't you just install it in a different location on the same machine? Then have both the old and the new version available?

I have recently been trying to get a family tree printed out for an upcoming reunion. Was hoping to get it into one continuous strip, but as it turns out, it is going to have to be in two. There are two issues, either of which if I had a solution would have been able have it done. First is that any ...

Isn't there two buttons, one to click to 100% (1:1) sizing and the other to size to the window?

Thankfully PR doesn't effect the quality of the program, it is just fluff on top [wink]

.... yep, just in the record window works.

Thanks Jon

Yes, thought it was very weird. Will try that now ....

Is it possible to change the type of a media object, after it has been linked to? If I have an image that I have linked to a source, then want to change it to a pdf, well, it just wont let you do it. You have to remove the link, change it, then link again. Is there some way to make the change withou...

Thanks Jane.

For future reference of others, the how to is here http://www.fhug.org.uk/flash/fhflags.html

Good to know I at least had the right idea on how to do the diagram. Starting to understand how things work now

Any suggestions on how to colour a family tree so that it is based on the particular branch? I am working on a tree, at the moment it is coloured based on the generation(one of the ones that comes with FH). What I want to do is have each entire family leg from the top family have a different colour....

Nick, they do seem to have a similar shape to me. So may be it is a brother of his? I am pretty sure it is Mary and Charlotte, they have pretty distinctive looks, though Mary being 24 in the photo may be does not fit that well. Anyway, thank you everyone for your input, it is good to get some indepe...

This is William and Mary for sure, at a later date:


And finally Charlotte:

The names written on the back are (left to right): Richard Hughes WARREN (1883-1933) - father John McKenzie WARREN (1910-1990) - son Mary Helen MCKENZIE (1861-1945) - grandmother Charlotte Elizabeth HUGHES (1828-1893) - great grandmother So the person that wrote it was thinking that as well. But the...

Just wondering if I can get people's opinions on the date for this photo and an age of those in it. I have some ideas, will post in a day or so, as want to get what people thing without any indicators from me. http://genealogy.ozreef.org/images/stories/warren/warren%20richard%20warren%20john%20mcken...

Well, must say it is neato having it to carry around like that. Showed it to a few people, looked up a few things, love it [grin]
