Strange. I've just looked and the it says I voted at 2:30 am tomorrow!

I think it more likely that it's a time zone issue rather than the clock on the server being wrong.

For one of the individuals where the '' shows (preferably one with not many facts) go to the All tab of their property box. Expand all the levels by clicking the + signs and screen shot that please.

Another possibility is that your ISP is allocating you different IP addresses. While you are logged in to the forums, open another browser tab and go to https://www.whatismyip.com/. Take a note of what that reports for My Public IPv4 is . When you find you've been logged out again go back to the sam...

Perhaps we should (wherever possible) highlight in the wish list where a competitor product has an equivalent feature.

Have you set your browser to delete cookies when you close it?

It's been a long time coming, but I have a new plugin which allows the user to customise the rules used to define how non-standard capitalisation is applied. The other main additional feature of the new plugin is that it compares the name parts with the full name; this is principally for users who h...

You must only ever have one instance of FH open at any one time on any device.

However having multiple instances open on two or more projects is OK - the important thing is that you must NEVER have the same project open twice on the same device or multiple devices.

I'd definitely vote for preservation of the Debugger Options. Something I've been working on recently needed me to keep turning on Global, Table.

Is anyone doing a review of the wish list itself? As some of the items on there are very old it may be that the direction on which FH has developed means the wish list item needs reviewing or updating. Also there may be items which have been fully or partially implemented by CP in subsequent FH vers...

As a matter of interest, how do you get from The Genealogist website to that TreeView website?
I've searched The Genealogist and can find no reference to that site or any free options.

Am I looking at something different?

I see Mark has suggested that this is closed as no support; but I'm wondering if the lack of comments was due to lack of interest or because the proposal was succinct and well defined.

I raised it because of this discussion: https://groups.io/g/family-historian/to ... 45937#6589

Mike, as this plugin is a replacement for Jane's wouldn't have been an idea to check for the old settings file and if found offer the sources the old plugin used as the sources to use in this new version?

I'm wondering if the confusion is because the navigation pane of Windows Explorer is turned off?

If so it's the Organise dropdown, Layout, Navigation pane to turn it on again.

Another wish list item that should have been marked completed as per comment? mjashby on Saturday 08th August 2015 03:24 AM said: The size of the Toolbar/Tools Icons can be changed in FH6 through Preferences\Display with Small, Medium and Large Options, so this 'Wish' now seems to have been delivere...

I notice this still isn't marked as completed in the wish list - is there some aspect of the request I've missed that is still outstanding?

While we were testing the new versions, we identified a number of issues with the way Rootsmagic Treeshare uploads information to Ancestry. The auditing processes Mark has added identifies where these issues have resulted in incorrect data and the plugin help pages give details of how to correct the...

Success! local btnDiagReport = iup.button{ title = 'Test', padding = '10x3' } function btnDiagReport:action() end local hboxDiagReport = iup.hbox{ btnDiagReport, iup.flatlabel{ title = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetuer Curabitur id lorem Proin Nam. Lobortis metus quis quis id Curabitur magna ...

I'd like to achieve the same. My relevant code is: local dialog = iup.dialog{ iup.vbox{ iup.frame{ iup.vbox{tglAncestrySync, tglOption2; gap = 10, margin = '10x10' }; title = 'Additional checks' }, iup.hbox{ iup.fill{}, btnSave, btnCancel, iup.fill{}; normalizesize = 'BOTH',margin = 'x10', gap = 40 ...

OK - I can confirm your analysis. But here's a strange thing. If you turn Preferences, Records Window, Display individuals surnames first in main list off, when you go to the records window, clicking the Individual Records column heading to sort by that column still sorts by surname, not the name as...

I have found a cheat to make the display look better: Record type icons.png fhOutputResultSetColumn('Id', 'integer', gtblIssues.tblId, rows, idWidth, 'align_right', 2, true, 'default') fhOutputResultSetColumn('', 'item', gtblIssues.tblIndiPtr, rows, 1, 'align_left', 0, true,'default') fhOutputResult...

Mike, you got the option the wrong way round, it should be fhOverridePreference('SURNAMES_UPPERCASE',true,true) and it does result in the surnames being in upper case in the result set so maybe my suggestion could work. Just capitalising the surname doesn't help if you want to use it as a sort colum...

OK, misunderstood the forum usage, but my point was NAME.TYPE can be added in the All tab and the Main tab could be customised to include it, so the wish list item can be closed.

In FH preferences, records window there is an option Display individuals surname first in main list. Is there an option to have that when a column of a result set is an individual pointer? I've coded round it by building another column with the name formatted as wanted and having the individual poin...

This hasn't been marked completed in the wish list itself although the associated topic has been moved to the closed board.
