Thanks again Lorna, I followed your advice and everything is working normally now. It took me a while to find the dots indicating the grab bar or whatever it is called. Even though I have my eyesight checked annually and I do not need glasses or contact lenses for reading (or for driving) the dots l...

Thanks, Lorna,

I'm just about to go out but will study your reply when I get back.

I have just discovered that the yellow area is on the right if I dock the property box. (It used to be underneath). All the sources appear when it is docked but if I make the property box float the sources pane still appears on the right but it is far too narrow. If I try to stretch it then the whol...

I have exactly the same problem. I have tried dragging the bottom of the property box downwards to make it longer as Mike suggested but no matter how far I stretch the box I cannot see anything for adding sources, nor can I see anything yellow in the property box. Everything in the property box is e...

Thanks Mike,

I have done that and everything works now.

The problem I had seems to have something to do with running Family Historian on a Mac using Parallels so that I could run Windows 10 applications. For some reason the bottom of the source box with the "add citation" button and other controls was not displayed and despite my attempts to change the s...

Hello, Something seems to have gone wrong with my copy of Family Historian. (I have downloaded the latest update to version 7). Before, adding a source for something like a date of birth was quite simple. I would click on the date of birth field, select say the 1851 England & Wales census from my li...

Many thanks Mike, and thanks also for the information you supplied Lorna. I have managed to get the source panel to work (although I haven't tried adding a new source yet). I was very relieved to discover that the sources and citations I had keyed in over the years are still there and are accessible...

Hello, I have been using Family Historian since about 2003 and have never experienced any significant problems after upgrading to a new version until about a week ago when I upgraded from version FH6 to the new FH7. Now I find that facts about individuals are not linked to the relevant sources. For ...
