What's New in V1.212

Whats New in V1.212

Merging Two Models

If two (or more) databases are open you can now copy a Selected Person from one model to be a child, spouse or parent of the Focal Person in another model as follows:

1. Open two (or more) databases.

2. Right click on a 'ghost box' in the target and select the pop-up menu option for Copy ... from ...

In Version 1.212 this function is still beta release status and is password protected. Please contact me by email if you agree to accept that it is beta status code and you want the password.

Delete Source

A warning message is now issued even if Source has no citation reference.

Dragging Existing Pictures

When you drag a picture from the Pictures tabview panel onto another person then a dialog will pop up asking you for the title of the new picture. It gives you three options for the title:

the file name
the old title
the name of the dropped-on person.

Having selected a new title then the Picture Editor will be displayed so you can make the appropriate crop. The logic of the code is built on the assumption that you have a group photo and you want to crop many people from it.

Right Click on Picture - 'Open With' menu option

When you Right click on a picture there is now a new menu option 'Open With' that allows you to display it in your favourite image application.

Transcription Dialog

The transcription dialog can now be split horizontally or vertically. The horizontal mode is better for transcribing landscape certificates and the vertical mode is better for transcribing tombstones.

Undated Death Events

Undated events for death, burial, cremation, will, probate and retirement are now appended to the end of a list of events. All other undated events appear at the start of a list events. This sort rule applies in the Events tabview panel and also in the reports.

Deletion of Source References

Corrected the referesh of the source references table after deleting a source reference.

Events - Locations

In the Events - Locations dialog there is now a search field to filter the list of place names. The filter is based on words that start with
Also added a Print button to this dialog to print a list of events sorted by place and filtered as per the search field.
