The sentences: my lack of Englisch? (20732) thread seems to identify a significant fault in CP.
In the Property Box Facts tab the Sentence box can be edited to create a Template specific to that Fact.
Any such specific fact Template should be used in Narrative Reports but currently they seem to be ignored.
Currently, only the global default Tools > Fact Types... definitions are ever applied to Narrative Reports.
Can anyone else confirm that?
See Narrative Report Fact Sentence Templates Specific Fact Sentences for details.

Re: Specific Sentence Templates not honoured.
Local sentence definitions are working for me.
For example... In my sister's Death sentence, I changed the global "died" to "was found deceased" and that is output in the Individual Narrative.

Local sentence definitions are also working OK for me. (If a sentence is edited after the narrative report has been created it is necessary to refresh the report).

How strange. I have tried several and none work in FH V7.0.11. Jim, is that your FH version?

OK, I tried a PC Restart to no effect and then re-installed FH V7.0.11 and that cured the problem.
I had been customising various Language Translation settings in support of sentences: my lack of Englisch? (20732) so presumably something in there upset the FH handing of Sentence Templates, but it will be difficult to repeat.

Re: Specific Sentence Templates not honoured.
Mike, for the avoidance of confusion will you correct the statement in the other topic, where you said:
"If the Property Box Facts tab Sentence box is edited then that specific template should be used in narrative style reports, but it is not used anywhere. That is a major fault that needs reporting to CP."

A bit late to the party; however, yes. I'm also using FH v7.0.11.
