Diagram: also shift ancestral spouses
Posted: 26 May 2006 10:33
As it seems, the All Relatives Diagram allows the shifting of spouses if they are descendants in that diagram, BUT NOT if they are ancestors, e.g. if an ancestor married twice and had children from both marriages.
I had a case in which I would have liked the ancestor's second wife on his right side, but whatever I tried, the second wife remained on the left and the first on the right, so that the children from the second marriage came first, which turned out to be rather confusing in the printout. See my thread 'Shift spouses - how to?' in the V3 usage section.
So I would like to be able to shift spouses also if they are ancestors.
