Sorry to be awkward Rick, but you say 19629|Scandinavian letter capitalization was resolved. However, there seems to be nothing in that thread explaining how it was resolved. Could you please describe the solution as it may be relevant to the Project Backup problem. Furthermore, I have just perform...

Hi Bill, Yeah I'm absolutely positive. The files are entirely missing from all my backups. I never would have noticed had I not switched to a new computer. This isn't the first time I've had an issue with Scandinavian characters in FH ( 19629|Scandinavian letter capitalization resolved) and I suspec...

Could you clarify? Was this a backup made using the FH backup facilities?

It was.

I recently switched to a new laptop and used a backup to move my project. I've just now noticed that all media with Scandinavian letters in its name (Æ Ø Å) is missing. At first I thought it had something to do with the language setting on my new laptop, but I then checked the ZIP files for my backu...

I appreciate the help, Bill. But I'm specifically inquiring about the flags.

Hello,
I recently got a new computer and moved my family tree using a full backup. Is there any way to recover my custom flags from the old computer? Should I refrain from making any edits to the tree until it's sorted?

Kind regards,
Rick

Are you sure the problem previously applied only to diagrams?

No, I misunderstood Mike's question.

If that does not fix it then you will have to call on Calico Pie for assistance via http://www.calico-pie.com/osticket/open.php.

Thank you for trying.

Changing the font to Tahoma made no difference. I haven't customized the FH Font settings, and clicking Restore to Default didn't do anything. Copying and pasting the name off the website didn't work either. Here's a sample GEDCOM: https://filebin.net/1kgyt1ihkyvlwp3m https://i.postimg.cc/yNPpNG0C/0...

Yes, my bad for picking this sub. I should have started the thread in General Usage. Sorry for the trouble. Restoring the Text Scheme doesn't fix the issue. Changing the font doesn't work either. The initial font was Arial. I tried a few different ones, all of which support accented letters. When I ...

I do have version 7.0.7 installed. It appears only to apply to the Diagram. The caption at the top of the Property Box is fully in upper case. I tried restoring the installation defaults on the diagram, but it didn't fix the issue.

Bill Hi Bill, Thank you for your answer. I am indeed using the latest version. I can see now that I've done a poor job of explaining the issue. The software does support Æ Ø and Å, but these letters are not automatically capitalized with the rest of the surname. It's a cosmetic issue with the defau...

The software is unable to automatically capitalize Æ Å or Ø. I don't remember having this issue in the previous version, but I may be mistaken.

The age calculator doesn't appear to support mixed calendars. I work with a lot of records from Eastern Europe, where the Julian calendar was in use up until the early 20th century (see list of countries bellow). The difference between the two calendars is very small: rising from 10 days in the 17th...

How would you deal with multiple dates for the same fact (not necessarily different dates, but in different calendars)? There's no right answer, but I would appreciate your input. I have a large Jewish branch originating in the Baltic countries, and I must juggle between the Georgian, Julian and Heb...

Nothing huge. Just a quality of life improvement. I would like the source author to autocomplete once I've typed a few letters based on earlier entries.

Thank you, David and rakow. That is precisely what I was looking for: A way to keep everything in a single tree yet mark the missing connection.

Thank you, Mike and Colin. You were very helpful!

Welcome to the FHUG Rick. If you use the Search... box top right and enter DNA it will list a great many associated discussions. I advise you tick Year of Posting for 2020 and 2019 to get only recent ideas. I am sure others will give more specific advice. Thank you. I read several threads, but I co...

I have two questions, but since they are related I'll post both here. First, is there a way to connect individuals with an unknown common ancestor? I have several DNA relatives with a conclusive yet missing link: testing several of their cousins has allowed me to pinpoint their earliest ancestor wit...
