Is there anyway to show an individuals pool number in the all relatives diagram?

Yes, just add line to the text scheme with the

=relationpool()

expression on it.

Yes, that works, but by definition the Pool number will be the same for all Individuals on any Diagram, with the exception of the Everyone Diagram.

Thanks,
I do most of my work through the all relatives diagram.
Knowing which pool I am working on will tell me how much work I need to do to connect to pool 1.
Am I right in thinking that the root person is always pool 1?
I will male a set of numbered pool ball type icons with numbers to show which pool in the diagram

If you want to do icons with an expression you will need

=IsTrue(relationpool() = 1)

Where 1 is the pool number for the icon.

As far as I can see, the Root person is not necessarily in Pool 1.
