Saving Text Boxes

Post by ParsMan »

Hi Everyone. I’ve managed to create a pretty nice family tree diagram. Printed it off and it looked fine.
I decided to add a title and some other bits of information using the Shapes/Text option. This worked fine and was exactly what I wanted. I pressed the “Save” icon on top left of screen and exited FH7.
Next time I logged on the text boxes were missing. Everything else was fine.
Anyone be able to work out what I’m doing wrong? Is there a particular “save” you need to do for text boxes? Many thanks.

Welcome to the FHUG.

The Save top left only saves the GEDCOM Project data file.

To preserve a customised Diagram use the Diagram > Save Diagram command to crate a Saved Chart.
They can be opened via the Charts > Saved Charts... option.
