* Make spouse name BOLD in Diagram?

[fhtess65]

Me again. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but nowhere in the Diagram options can I find how to make the Spouse name bold. I'm using FH7 to create a series of trees for a family photo website my uncle is creating and want to have the spouse's name bold as well. Would some kind soul please point me to how to do this?

Thanks

Start with the Diagram > Options > Text tab and Edit Text Scheme...
You will find an Item called Spouse Name if 'One Box Per Marriage'
Also higher up there is an Item called <font = ... > that sets the font style for subsequent items.

So you need to insert a <font = ... > Item before and after the Spouse Name Item.
The one before sets the bold style for Spouse Name and the one after restores the original style.

I suggest that rather than edit the default Text Scheme, you use the Clone... button and edit the custom copy.

Is that enough clues, or do you need more specific advice about entering the font Items?

Thanks, Mike - I'll have a go now you've given me some clear directions. Trying to learn as much as I can

Will let you know if I need more detailed instructions.
