I've been curious about this for a while but never asked. If I run an Individual report or a Group Sheet report, the images don't seem to be in any particular order. It would be nice if they were associated with the fact in the report so that everything was together. However, if I have images attached to a fact in the database, they are nowhere near the fact in the report. They could be at the bottom, top, or somewhere in the middle. Does anyone know how Family Historian groups the images on reports? It just seems very random to me. Thanks

You do have some (limited) control over how the pictures are displayed. Different types of picture can be displayed in different positions and at different sizes. But obviously if pictures are displayed to the right of the text it is unlikely that the pictures and the related text will keep in step.

These are the options available for an individual summary report:

But if you choose In Rows AboveText, Left-Aligned or Above Text Centred/Left/Right-Aligned don't expect images attached to a Fact to be positioned just above that Fact. They will be positioned above all the Facts.

For To the Right of the Text the order is the same order as the Pictures tab types.
