Blocked facts

Whilst adding a fact, the dropped down-list had a no-entry symbol against Marriage Banns!
If it was because no wife was associated with the individual, why not place a no-entry sign against marriage as well?

I spotted the no-entry sign a few days ago, but it seems a bit inconsistent in when it appears :D

Can anyone explain why it appears?

I couldn't suppress Marriage Banns as a fact without it automatically disappearing from the Add Fact list, so that was my idea out of the window.

Does the no-entry sign actually do what it says on the tin and stop you using it? If so, what's the error message?

I've tried several ideas without success. Certainly never seen that no entry symbol there before.
Without more clues about when it does and does not appear it is difficult to investigate.

It looks like the Fact Rejected Flag symbol but cannot imagine why it would appear in the Add Fact list.

I can only suggest you ask CP why it appears.

Sorry, I don’t know. I didn’t attempt to click it as I was adding a census fact at the time :D

I had seen something similar before in my peripheral vision, but could never seem to find it again.

Thanks Mile,

I’ll raise it with CP tomorrow.
