My 2x Great Grandfather's death date shows in the Individaul page and in the Property Box but NOT in a diagram starting with his Parents and children. All other dates are ok and all the death dates for his siblings are displayed.

Any idea's [confused]

I wonder if his box on the diagram is big enough to display all of the text.  Have you tried making his box a bit bigger?  Or is there a text-scheme condition (e.g. Living Flag Set) which prevents display of death details?

Box displays Birth and Baptism, his wife's box is twice the size with Birth, Bap, Marriage, Death information all displayed. Both have flags set but only for the records described above.

Have restarted program.

Steve,
You didn't say whether you had tried making his box bigger, e.g. as big as his wife's (by first clicking on the Enable Moving/Resizing button).

If you start a diagram directly from the record for your great (x2) grandfather that shows his death date, do you have the same problem?

That was one of the tests. It happened if I went back a generation, have diagram set to 2 generations, one of the boxes didn't show all the info. And not the same numbered child, it was third child, then I went back one generation and the six child box would be faulty. Since reload all seems to be ok.
