Thank you both for the help. I did see the cog-wheel before posting but was not sure if I could just change the name somewhere without having to delete the query. It is changed now. Thanks again.

I downloaded a query and made some changes to it to suit my needs and now want to rename it. Is there a way to do that in the FH? On the General tab of the query, the title just says New Custom Query.

I have two custom facts that I would like to reorder that do not have a date. They are both at the bottom of my list of facts, but one should be before the other. The one on the top has an arrow to move it up, but not down. Is there a way to move it? Both are for an after-death fact. I have seen som...

I started to use Grammarly to check my spelling and punctuation when creating a book. Some of my errors were showing the need to put a comma between two dates. Example: James's Address was 7 Timber Hill Road btw Jan 28, 1966 and 1985 in Plainville, Hartford, Connecticut. FH 7 will not let me put the...

I did mean the background, not the text. I will vote for the Dark Mode Option.

When I get the results from my custom queries, they are displayed in a grid format. I was wondering if there is a way to darken the grid color. Right now, it is a very light gray color, and if you have a few lines with very little information, it makes it hard to read.

I have 2 questions about queries. I have started making some custom queries, that are working great. I was just wondering if there is a way to add a column for a Record ID. I am looking for an expression to use. example: If Jim was the home person in my tree, and his Record ID is 1, how do I get the...

My stepson just adopted his wife's daughter. I was wondering how to record her name. Leah is a 10-year-old girl, that is now legally a Bishop. Before she was adopted her name was Sayers. I was wondering if I should keep her primary name as Leah Sayers or Leah Bishop and use the other name as the Alt...

Thank you

I was creating a new witness role for burials and misspelled it. I created a new one with the correct spelling but was wondering how to delete the misspelled one. This is where you would add the person and the role. Everything works fine, just want to get rid of the wrong spelling role.

I replaced the global fact for sports to read: {individual's} {label} were {value} {date} {place} {age}
Everything is working fine.
Is there a way to see the full template that is used for an individual?

Removing the " from the marriage fact, fixed them all.
I am not sure how one fact is tied to all the fact sentences.

which template jelv?

The local sentence is: {individual} played {label} {date}, {place} {age} {note} This does not have a white background on my computer. I tried unclicking Inc. Event/Attr Notes in the options and it did not change the ". yes, there are only Standard, Extended Set, and Custom Fact Sets. I forgot I did ...

No, because it is only showing up in the Individual Narrative Report

This is the sentence for the marriage. I did not change anything in the marriage fact. <br>{individual} married< {spouse/her/him}> {date} <at {address}> {place} {their ages}. <The best man was {role(single)=Best man}. ><{role(single)=bridesmaid} was a bridesmaid. ><Bridesmaids included {role(plural)...

I went into my facts and made a new Fact for sports and made sure it was not an event. Then I deleted the fact that I was using. I then went into J.V.'s facts and deleted the fact that was there and recreated it using the new fact. I added a little to the note field to see what happened when I ran t...

I just added a note to another person in my tree and then ran the individual Narrative Report and noticed that the " mark showed up. I then went to edit and undo the note and the text from the note was gone, but the " was still there at the end of the sentence.

You can see that the same thing is happening with just the marriage for Ouida Rodgers. I added her the same as I did for the other 2 wifes.

I did uncheck the box and the " is still there.

No the marks are not in the sentence. They are just in the report. I am not sure what the super script is? I made sure that the sentence was the same in Tools < Fact types also. I am having trouble taking a picture using the snip tool. I can save it to the clipboard or a file, but it will not past i...

I am getting a set of " at the end of some of my sentences when I run my reports. Example: I have a fact for sports that just has a date and the sports played. Sports: Basketball, Football, and Tennis Date: 1960 Place: Address: Age: Note: {individual's} {label} were <{value}> {date} {place} {age} Th...

The address field is still used in the Individual Summary Report. For the Individual Narrative Report, I am using: Date: Aug 18, 1984 Place: Plainville, Hartford, Connecticut Address: 19 South Canal Street Note: Church: in Our Lady of Mercy Church ]] [[ Address: at 19 South Canal Street ]] I have to...

Thank you all for your help. Using the Labelled Note Meta-fields is what I was looking for. This just makes a better-sounding sentence to me.

After reading the article Working with Places and Addresses, I am more confused. I have only changed 2 or 3 people's fields to contain the church name for their marriage and they looked fine in the narrative reports. I think it would be better if there was a field to put the name of the church in, t...
