Little help with DEA please
I thought that I would try the new FH7 Source / Citation option in the trial version. I took a Marriage Cert and opened a Source, entered the details and then opened the DEA for Marriage. I then filled in the info as seen on the captured image. However, I cannot seem to find a SAVE or OK button, even with the window maximised. The first time I hit the X and lost everything. Am I missing something here? I'm sure it is something very simple (like me!)
Any help would be appreciated, thank you.
Cheers

Re: Little help with DEA please
This is only a guess, but the demo version doesn’t normally run plugins, so have Calico Pie disabled saving DEA data entry for the demo?

It used to say on the 30-Day Trial download page for FH V6 that Plugins were not supported.
But for FH V7 there is more info about installation but nothing about Plugins. So who knows?

Re: Little help with DEA please
If pp has got as far as that screen they' ve managed to run the plugin.
Pp have you tried enlarging the plugin window? I'm away from my pc at the moment for a few days so can't check but I think the botttons should be at the bottom

Re: Little help with DEA please
As ever, many thanks for all of your replies.
The plugin downloaded and I then selected it from the DEA option, so I am using the Marriage DEA. Yes, Mark, CP may have put something in to guard against full usage....but as CVG has mentioned, I must be using it. CVG, I have tried maximising, dragging the borders etc. When I drag the box, it stops at the top of the screen and when I maximise, there is no scroll down bar on the right. I can't even tabulate through the answers to the bottom of the window, where I assume the OK or Save button is located? I'm no expert, but could it be something to do with screen handling?
Many thanks,
PP

I suspect it is screen handling. If you're just experimenting the plugins I posted at viewtopic.php?f=42&t=18293 behave differently but there isn't a marriage one ready yet.

Re: Little help with DEA please
Thanks CVG,
I put a Birth Certificate through the DEA and it worked, I could see and reach the OK button in the bottom LH corner!!
So, it looks like I chose the wrong type of Certificate to do my first test, doh!
