In those cases where you have a child, marriage, or event without a date, AND you want to keep them in their current order, just select the "Don't sort the." option and Legacy will leave that family/person alone. Just click the "Sort the Selected Lists" button, and Legacy 8 will go through your entire family file and get everything correctly sorted. This is found on the Tools ribbon, in the Tools section:Ĭlicking on this option brings up this screen: Just in case you have some unsorted children, marriages, or events in your family file, we have also included a new Global Sorting tool in Legacy 8. In Legacy 8, it will automatically sort to fit in exactly where it belongs:ĭid you also notice the age column in the enhanced Events/Facts section above? Great! In the past, any newly-added event would sort to the bottom of the list of events. Because you have read chapter 5 of my Legacy Family Tree - Unlocked! you understand that this census should be a part of his timeline, so you add the new census event. Let's say that I finally found Asa Brown in the 1830 census. I ems that this new automated sorting feature should have been around for a long time.but it's there now! Horray! You can't tell I'm excited, can you? And this is one of the smaller new Legacy 8 features.

After adding the 15 known children of Nathan and Anna Brown, if I were to discover a new child, who, according to their birth year fit in as the 9th child, Legacy 8 will automatically sort the child into the correct position. The same is true with the births of children. In Legacy 8 (and beyond.) you will never have to manually sort these again! They are automatically sorted as you add them. In Legacy 7 and earlier, to sort the marriages I had to click on the Sort button. Legacy kept the marriages displayed in the original order even though I now had the marriage dates: Later I discovered each of the marriage records and I added the new dates and places. First I added Clarinda, then Ida, then Lottie, and so on. Initially, because I did not know when each marriage occurred, I entered each relationship alphabetically. Brown, was married to five different women: I sent my book to them at least two months ago for the “engineers” to look at, and no one has contacted me.Long-time Legacy Family Tree users will think they have died and gone to heaven (myself included) after reading about this next Legacy 8 reveal: automated sorting!Īlthough in real life, children are born in birth order, and people who marry more than once get married in chronological order, as researchers we sometimes do not discover these children or marriages in order.įor example, my ancestor, Lorenzo D. I Have talked to different people in “chat”, but they can not solve my problems. Am also ordered a guide about a year ago, but no sign of it yet. I did 2 books with the old version and didn’t have near as many problems. One of these pages will only print the top half? Sometimes pictures are gone from the page with a red line around where it should be with a big ❌. First I had to delete / remove the “table of contents “, then remove the “index”, now I can’t start numbering the pages where I want to, after the “outline descendant report”, which I am using instead of table of contents.Īlso, could not load pages from my word program, so I had to cut & paste.
