Timeline chart error

I am having exactly the same problem.

It's the first time I have tried to use this plug in so I don't know if it's a new problem.

Plugin Course anyone

Could you manage one in Crete as well.

Seriously, where and when would you be likely to hold the courses? I am coming to UK in July and could be interested depending on actual date and venue.

Unwanted box in Diagram

Roger,

Thank you for asking the question.

I had created the same situation and was getting frustrated solving it.

Your query appeared as I came on here to ask for help.

Recording a graduation ceremony....how?

I Googled Colin's phrase 'screen recording software' and it came up with this
http://camstudio.org/  which is free.


However, I know very little about computers and even less about screen recording software so it may be completely rubbish.

Second marriage

Sitting on the fence a bit here.............. maybe it depends on what you are proposing to do with your tree. If the tree is not available publicly, then I would include the details - the marriage was a fact and, however much your family member might want to, she can't change that. If the tree is t...

Individual death record apply to family

I have created Custom events for

Death of spouse
Death of Mother
Death of Father
Re-marriage of parent

to cover these eventualities.

As you say these are important events in a person's life and it's interesting to record them.

AS2 - Census menu icon

If you click the Baptism menu icon it changes to say Baptism next to it - presumably to highlight whether you are working with Census or Baptism.

Or am I looking at the something different from you?

There's a tutorial here

Scottish Census reference no.

Thanks, Adrian, for your reply.

The Parish: Panbride; ED: 4; Page: 29; Line: 5 option seems a good one but would make the source title very long!!

I may just put any reference info into the Note box in the source.

Andy,

I followed your link which just seems to go to the home page of SurveyMonkey, without any indication of how to find your survey.

Sorry if this is insulting, William, but you have actually attached the icon to a person have you? [smile]

I only ask because I have done this myself and wondered what was wrong.

No offence meant.
