Swapping Images

Post by Steve »

Hi

I am new to Family Historian and just finding my way around it.

I want to swap an image currently being used as the profile image for an individual with another different image. I can't see how to do this.

Thanks
Steve

Hello Steve, welcome to FHUG.

On the media tab of the individuals' Property Box you will see a column headed Pref. This shows the preferred order for the pictures to be displayed. To swap the priority of the photos select the one you want to place first and use the black arrow in the toolbar to change it to a higher preference. Here's an example from the sample project:

Thank you. It worked. I've been using another programme for a long time now so it's a new learning experience but enjoying it.

Hi Steve and welcome, if you haven't already found it may I give you the link to the recent Knowledge base page of videos.

Family Historian has many powerful features and I have just completed a series of videos on the media possibilities.
