Extra Unwanted Box on Diagram

Post by rfj1001 » 08 Sep 2016 16:49

The screenshot below of part of a family tree has this pink box, named (2), that I can't seem to get rid of. I've not come across it before

I've looked at the 'unlink from spouses' option for the husband and each of the two wives (both ways) to see if there are any unwanted or incorrect links. There are none showing. If I delete the pink box from the diagram (with the data as well) then I lose the complete person record for Robert. If I delete the box then, as expected, it reappears when I reload the chart

I've run out of ideas on what is causing it and how to fix it. Can SKS help out

Many thanks

That's a remarriage box, I suspect you have modified the text scheme as it normally has the persons name in it.

Go to diagram options and select options next to the spouse boxes and untick it if you don't want it.

Some people prefer it when putting both spouses on the right as it clearly shows the wives are not married to each other.
