Family Historian User Group

Hi,
I tried the option using tools and that gives me exactly what I want thank you very much.

Hi
As you can see it brought up all the siblings not sure what I did wrong., but I have managed it now.
Jan

I have managed to do it. You work from the bottom up not from the top down, and close off the lines you don't want. Not sure why it works that way and not the other, but it works.

Thanks for your help
Jan

The problem I'm getting is that I don't want the brothers and sisters to appear on the chart.

Hi all,
I am trying to make a standard direct ancestors (going from the top to the bottom) tree preferably couples but without any family attached. Using a plugin I have managed to do it but with all the family attached but that is not what I want. Can anyone help please.
Jan

Many thanks for this. I have just run this plug in and found the same problem.
Jan

Hi, It is listed in custom queries. I thought that it was a plugin that I had downloaded.

I have got a report 'Census Missing ages Years' and wonder if anyone could help me with it. I find it very useful but I would like it to not show any person who died before the 1841 census. This would be helpful as the report would only show the people who should appear on the censuses.

I tried to delete one of the files and found that it deleted all of the work that I had done after the date of the deleted file so I had to restore a back up file which made things worse. I will follow your instructions and hopefully get back where I should be. Thanks

At the moment I don't use dropbox although the file is there. I have only used the programme with one other computer and that was for one month.

Sorry not sure which is the default project

I've attached the screen shots the all families, empty and hawkes files all seem to be the same from various times.

Hi Mike
I have tried deleting one and then had to use my last saved file.
Jan

The problem I have is that they are the same as the project I am working on so if I delete them they delete all the work I have on the current tree.
Jan

I am not sure which forum to use so if I am in the wrong one sorry. I have about five copies of the same family tree from various different years on the project page and don't know how to get them off of there. I don't know how I managed to get these copies but would like to get rid of them. Any hel...

When adding a couple into the tree, in the box which says wife/partner I would like the person to be marked partner rather than wife when this is appropriate. This mainly becomes a problem when running reports as often the husband or wife can get rather annoyed. How can I correct this?

Hi,
Is it possible to use the programme on both my laptop and desktop and if so how do I transfer any new information between the two computers. Thank you
