What's New in V1.209 Person's Tabview Panel Added a new field to display an abbreviated string of the person's 'other events' plus a new button to display the Person's Details dialog to allow you to quickly view/edit the details for his/her events. Export of Pictures Added an option to export pictu...

Hi Keith Perhaps I was just being lazy, and wanting it all on one page. I agree, you cannot put them all on the same page, too cumbersome. I will wait for the vote. I think the non-editable display for burial would be all that would be needed. Christenings and others etc not necessary. Do not want ...

Hi Keith Seeing as you have on the person page their birth, death and marriage dates, places, and also a cause of death, could we have down near that cause of death or after death area an area for burials. e.g. 20 Mar 1887 Milbong Lutheran Cemetery, Qld. Anne Hi Anne, Very sorry but I need to put t...

I know that this is a " difficult" question for some, but I need an answer. I have a relative in my family tree who entered into a same-sex union (not marriage). How do I indicate it in the chart? Thanks for the feedback. We have added this to our todo list. In the meantime please assign different ...

Originally posted by annemac(Guest) I uploaded some headstone pics from the iFamily folder. First created the pages in iFamily with all info + headstone photos, exported a small gedcom of the All people in Diagram, selected the pics to upload by FTP to the appropriate folder in TNG. Worked fine. Al...

Thanks for the feedback. I will transfer the pics to the correct folder in TNG. I use FTP and will check the transfer mode. Initially, I uploaded them and put them in the photos folder. Will have a go tonight and report back on how I go. Thanks, all else runs smoothly with iFamily to TNG and back t...

Originally posted by KevP In the admin panel for TNG, when you set it up, you should have defined the folder for photographs. This is where all of the photographs go. When you export the gedcom and it tells you the pics that it exports and where it puts them, these need to be trasnferred manually. ...

Originally posted by annemac Is there anyone on the list who uploads gedcoms to TNG. Do I need to set up a folder in TNG and upload the photos manually first, if so what name do I give the folder. I have tried several exports of small gedcoms but I am missing something in my understanding of the pr...

What's New in V1.208 Download Latest Version Added a menu option iFamily for Tiger - Download Latest Version so that you can check for the latest Version of iFamily for Tiger on the web site and download it to your Desktop. On broadband cable it takes about 10 seconds or so for the download. LDS Ma...

I've used GEDCOM to import all of my data from TNG and it's imported fine. I've noticed with the SLGS field (LDS Sealing to Spouse) that it's not appearing under the events tab for some people. I have one couple where it appears for the wife, but not the husband. Others it appears for both, and oth...

Originally posted by annemac I run iFamily on my Intel mini mac and at night use a 2g speed stick and work on my ibook G4 feet up in front of the tele. Runs smooth without problems. Total people at this stage in excess of 10,000 and over 1,400 images of headstones, photos, certificates, heaps of ot...

It works well on my Intel Mini Mac too.

Originally posted by KevP I've just switched from Linux to a Mac. Under Linux I was using TNG which was the only available decent program for Linux users. Having just switched to a Mac, I've also just switched to iFamilyForTiger. I am most impressed. It's better than most Windows based programs tha...

I have been having a spot of difficulty using my exported gedcoms in my TNG website, mainly due to an evident duplication of photo references. In trying to understand what is going on, I imported into iFamily a gedcom I had just created as an export from iFamily. iFamily generated a lot of complain...

What's New in V1.207 Ancestors and Descendants Diagrams 1. The mini Personal Details dialog in the Ancestors/Descendants diagram has been activated and all fields are editable. It is now a floating window that is bound to the currently selected person so as you navigate the diagram the values chang...

Many thanks for the additions. The source search in events is a real boon.
Chris

Yes but after you add a new Source the new Source should be the selected one when you return to the Events dialog - this is on my todo list because I know it will be your next request.

Hi Keith Using 1.206 loaded and moving along. Like the A D bit as well very handy. What and how do I use the new source area provided for in the events screen. I click on it and it says add event, I say yes and get a 1 in there or a 2 depending on what I select. Is that linked to the sources. Maybe...

OK I give up today. I have finally twigged to what this source event is all about.

It works fine, I like it, it is intuitive, more than I can say for myself today.

So simple, I cannot work out how I could miss it.

Thanks for the quick response, have now deleted the little buggars. D

Cheers

Originally posted by annemac Hi Keith Thanks for the info, will do today. Sounds like the little of Remove or delete all Unconnected Person you have in your version would be a great function for iFamily. Sometimes I just go 'oops, buggar' and need to someone, even if its just because someone gives ...

Hi Keith I cannot work out whether I can or cannot totally delete someone once I disconnect them from the family I've put them in (totally by mistake). I add a couple of kids to a family, move on and do a whole lot of other things, so apple z is not going to do it for me. I want to totally take the...

Thank you for a wonderful product! I've test-driven the others, and what impressed me the most was all your diligent and hard work and the responses of satisfied customers! I thought that this was a bonus " feature" that the other programs didn't have! ) So I bought it! I'm a total newbie with iFam...

Keith, I just don't want to to feel bored when you are back from your jazzy holiday.. I like to add sources when entering events. Unlike the main sources window, the sources dialogue in the events window has no " find sources box" - it would be very handy to have one.. Chris OK, expected that reque...

Agree with the private comment. Obviously I want to have complete records on my system, but when I get to exporting GEDCOM's and making a web-site (because all my family wants to view it), i'd be keen to hide 'private' information... ~Luke

Originally posted by perthling(Guest) Loved the demo, have bought the full version - should have PayPal funds cleared in a day or so to get the full version. Yay!!
