Display living age on tree view.

Post by KarenMG » 26 Jan 2019 18:21

Looking for a little advice / reminder.
If I have a living flag ticked, how can I get my tree view to display someones current age? I know its possible, have had it in the past, but with computer issues / re-installs etc I have lost a lot of customisation and trying to put them back. Thanks

I suspect you used the =EstimatedAgeAt( %INDI%, Today(), AVG ) function conditional on the Living flag.
So in the Edit Text Scheme Item dialogue the Template would be say:
Age: =EstimatedAgeAt( %INDI%, Today(), AVG)
and the Flag Condition would select the Living flag that must be set.

From now on use the Backup and Restore Family Historian Settings Plugin to preserve your customisations, and ensure those saved files are included in your routine file backup regime for the PC.
I bet you backup your Project so why not backup your custom settings?
See the Backup & Recovery topic in how_to:key_features_for_newcomers|> Key Features for Newcomers.
