Adding the Given Name Used to the text in a diagram box

Post by Cor » 16 Nov 2016 08:40

In a previous version of FH, it used to automatically (or by default) show the Given Name Used field in the middle at the top of each text box in the diagrams. Now in version 6.2 this feature has sadly gone and it appears one has to manually edit the text scheme. However, when I go into the list of Available Items in Edit Text Scheme I can't see the Given Name Used field. How can I edit the existing text scheme to include the Given Name Used field in each diagram text box where I have an entry in that field? Grateful for any help!

I don't think it's ever had a scheme with that in it, but it's possible you added it or downloaded a scheme.

Just add a new custom item. The field you want is

%INDI.NAME._USED%
