I would really like it if diagrams showed the full names, including all middle names of individuals with surnames capitalized, and an option to include ID numbers.
In my family we're all just as likely as not to go by our middle names (as I do)because we have the same first name, or by a nickname that has nothing at all in common with what we were baptized. Full names and ID numbers would sure help to sort this lot out.
Thanks,

Penny, I have moved this from Wish List as you can already do this.
You just need to set up the correct Text for the Diagram.
For example putting
%INDI.NAME%
Ref =recordid()
in place of
%INDI.NAME: Prefered%
will show the whole name and the reference.
Don't forget to change it on all the different box types and ensure the Save as Default is ticked at the bottom of the Dialog box.
To use Surnames in Capitals, select the Tools and Preferences from the Menu, then select the Miscellaneous tab and tick show Surnames in CAPS.
