I'd like to see, as a minimum, the last source used be the focus the next time I open the Add Source dialog. As a maximum, since these sources tend to be identical for the people involved, it would be great to be able to " memorize" a source with citation and apply it with just a couple keystrokes.
Thanks,
Jim

Applying a Source Multiple Times
In version 2.245 you can select any Source to be the Active Source. Whilst it is active iFamily will automatically create a Source Reference when you add a new Person or a new Event.
You can also Right Click on any existing Person or Event to add a Reference to the Active Source. Each time a Source Reference is automatically created in this manner, iFamily will display a small dialog asking you to confirm the Page Reference, Topic of the Reference and it also allows you to add Notes about the Reference.
