I am using version 4.02 and am increasingly finding the focus window useful. Is it possible to print the result pages from each of the tabs ?
I suspect not but thought I would just check.

Not currently,

the Ancestors and descendants can easily be printed using the outline reports for those.

The Family Group sheet is the closest to the two Family tabs.

Thanks Jane.
The descendant report is quite close but the ancestors has too much detail which means I have to change settings, similarly with the family report. Annoying when you can see a neat simple diagram /layout on the screen but cannot print it
Is this one for the wish list ?

You could always simply print the screen (most keyboards have a 'print screen' option) this will print a copy of the full screen to your clipboard. The image can then simply be pasted in to a 'Word' or 'PowerPoint' document and the bits you don't want 'cut' out? Of course this will just be a picture and can't be edited easily - but might be sufficient for your needs?

Cheers

If you float the Property Box and use Alt + PrtScr then only the Property Box is copied.

Many thanks for that, I had no idea that you could print the screen.
I'm afraid that I am not too computer literate, but have learned something new today.
Thank you again
