Box shapes in diagrams

Post by annie » 31 Mar 2006 12:14

The default shape for the boxes on the diagrams seems to be with rounded corners and with a shadow. I tried to make them rectangles with no shadow but it only works for the males! The females remain unchanged. I've tried it several times (with a male then a female as the root person), closed FH and started it again, told it to make the rectangle the default, all to no avail. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong, please? Thanks very much

Although I don't understand why I couldn't change the boxes using the method I did, I have now found a way to get rectangles with no shadow: choose Diagram Options then on the Boxes tab click on Presets and then choose Classic.

I should have looked a little harder before posting!

Make sure you don't have any conditions for sex on your box typing, I suspect you have one which conditions the box for the females.

Just delete it if you do.
