Custom Diagram not saving all information

Post by **Guest** » 08 Nov 2005 21:56

I have just started using Family Historian and I using version 2.3.5. I am having problems with Standard Diagrams All Relatives. I have a very complicated family and to get all the information I need to show on the diagram I am having to Override the Default Text in individual boxes. I have done this several times then saved the diagram as Custom Diagram but when I open the the Custom Diagram it has not saved the Text I have put in. Any help will be gratefully recieved.

Unfortunately Custom Diagrams do not retain that information in 2.3

Does this mean that I have to put this information in and cannot save it. This is very frustrating!!
Thank you for yor reply anyway.

What additional information do you want to add? You can customise the diagrams to include any event or attribute.

Thats what I do I use a custom event or attribute to add any additional information I want on Boxes.

Please can you tell me how to do this. I cannot see anywhere in diagrams to do this. The information I want to put in the boxes is to do with children who are adopted and about name changes. When I get further into my tree there is other information I need to put in.
Thank you for your help [smile]

Just add the fields you want to display to the text scheme. This is covered in the manual. Look at section 7 around page 70.

Thank you for all your help I have found the information in the manual. I have not had time to try it yet.

Thank you

Release 3 looks like it will cover lots more customisations.

Thank you all I tried putting the information in Events Attributes and it worked. Now I am playing putting other things in.

Thank you
