1. [FTST] Re: FTST chart text alignment [1]
Terry, Thanks for your comments. I had initially tried this method of changing the alignment of text but I think I had accidentally selected a non-text component because I didn't get the text alignment option. However doing it again all worked well, although I really wish there was a simple global text selection option as it took me 10 minutes selecting the individual text components whilst holding my finger on the Ctrl (not shift) button. (Holding the shift button isn't helpful here because it selects

Rae Jean, I have indeed read those messages and my response was based on the way I thought you were interpreting the words "display problem." If you view a relationship tag, you will see that it is called Father-Nat or Mother-Nat and not Son-Nat or Dau-Nat. (another bug -- one I never noticed before.) Also, the surety is in the "1" slot, whi

4. Re: [FTST] Surety values in FTST(error or bug) [1]
Display problem... guess that means it is/was a display problem -- but where? As Astrid and Richard noted, in TMG we (or I should say I) entered a surety number in slot P1 when citing that then is displayed in slot P1 for both mother/father and child. What I should have done is enter a surety in P1(mother/father) and P2 (child)... but on the "Add a Person" screen you can only add a surety number in the P1 and M slots -- P2, D and P are blanked out. Since I can't edit in FTST, the "Add a Person" screen is

I believe that this bug was noted earlier when FTST first came out. I am confident that BV won't release TMG 5.0 until this is fixed.

8. [FTST] Using FTST With FTM Import [1]
Before I get started I should explain that I am a total idiot when it comes to FTST. I do not use TMG, but have considered purchasing it. I have always used FTM (Family Tree Maker), currently Version 7. My question is this: Are there some options in FTST that actually require TMG to work? For example, the Research Log. If I understand my software correctly, FTM only uses one Research Journal for the entire program. In other words, each person is not allotted a "Research Log". So when FTST imports the

12. Re: [FTST] 2nd marriages (error or bug) [1]
I was using v1.1 of FTST. To try to correct this problem I just uninstalled FTST. Then reinstalled v1.0 and every thing shows correctly but! when I then upgrade back to v1.1 then some of my 2nd marriages do not show in the family and tree views. I even did this twice with a new download of the v1.1 upgrade to be sure I did not have a corrupted copy of the upgrade. Must be a bug in v1.1 I will report it to FTST tech support.

You're welcome. Actually, it's logical to assume that you would have to select only the text elements in order to apply text formatting, but in fact you don't have to.

The text has to be contained in something. But if the left alignment isn't what you want, why don't you just change it to centered or right aligned?

Thanks Lee, Carl, and all that replied to my questions. I figured as much (that TMG was required) and don't feel so much like a total idiot now. And thanks, Lee, for the URL's to the "tips" site and your website. According to the help section in the FTST program, you are supposed to be able to download additional timelines from the Whollygenes website. If they are there, then they are certainly hidden from me. I have devoted so much time and money into the FTM software that I hate to abandon this progr

20. [FTST] Re: Selecting datasets in FTST [1]
Terry, Thanks for your comments. However this configuration and the data selection restriction it creates makes no sense to me. There is already a 'birth-group*' dataset option which can serve the same purpose; the linking of 'Birth*' and 'Baptism*' datasets to the birth group just undermines their usefulness. Now if I want to express BOTH birth and baptism information on a chart, I have to make a new tag, eg: 'baptised', which is not part of the birth group. Using John Cardinal's utility, such a ch

Here, Here! I DO use TMG and find the "wading" gets a little too deep from time to time. So I seriously doubt that non-TMG'ers would ever stick w/ the TMG list just to get a few FTST posts. I daresay the minimal activity reflects well on Bob and the rest of the Wholly Genes crew. I had some d

In the project explorer, it is possible to expand a person and show their spouses and children. I just noticed that if a person has a child from a person they did not marry, they don't show up when that person is expanded. Is this expected behaviour? Jerrod Carter

I'm here but like you I haven't seen much action. I subscribed in late November and at the same time on TMG. It is very active but not one email have I seen on here till yours. Let me see if I can get things started with this question. Okay, I bought FTST, and I've created (imported) my first project. Other than create some nice charts, what else can I do? Also, if I make changes to the project, will they update to TMG? If yes, how? I admit I've been spending most of my time with TMG and its forum a
