Me again, with another question.
I generated a How Related chart for my uncle and my fourth cousin, however, the outline colour of the box is, well, garish and I can't figure out where to go in the diagram options to change it. Would someone please enlighten me?

Go to Diagram > Family Connection Mapper, and you can configure the colour there. You can add extra relationships and have different coloured routes.

Thanks, Neil - I didn't even notice that option! All makes sense now

It doesn't exactly jump out at you does it! I knew I'd found it before, some time ago, and took me a while to find where it was again. It would make sense if it was also available on a right click menu on the chart itself.

Glad to know it's not just me who had trouble finding the right menu, and I agree, having it available via right click would be most helpful, and far more intuitive.
