* Viewing two family trees

[princecharlie123]

Is it possible to have two family trees open at the same time and view them side by side ?
Many thanks.

Yes, you just have to open FH twice and view one Project in one and the other Project in the other.
But do not do it with the same Project open in both copies of FH.

Do you mean two trees within the same project? If so, here are two suggestions:

1. Open one tree and then use Diagram>Insert into Diagram and add another tree into the same diagram window.
or
2. Use Tools>Preferences>Workspaces and set Re-use of Open Windows Permitted to No for the Diagram Window. Then you can open the two trees in separate diagram windows. Then use Window> Tile Horizontally or Tile Vertically to arrange the two diagram windows side by side.

If you are referring to two different projects, you can open two instances of Family Historian, as Mike has said.

Many thanks all . I will try both methods.

Lorna's first method only works if you have two trees in one Project, or for two different branches on one tree.
