UNICODE SUPPORT:
1) All data entry fields now support UNICODE. This allows the full range of possible characters (Hebrew, Greek, Russian, etc.) to be used in names, places, and other data.
Note: Full UNICODE support is provided for Windows NT/2000/XP systems only.
GEDCOM EXPORT:
1) Options Page: the new “Max Line Length” option allows control over the maximum line length, from 50 to 255 characters (default is 70).
2) Embedded source citations on notes are now placed at a lower level immediately after the CONC/CONT portion to which they pertain. This simpler system provides better compatibility with other programs.
GEDCOM IMPORT:
1) Sources missing a title now have their name generated according to the source template’s default name template.
2) Non-unique source names are made unique by appending a number.
3) Unrecognized level-1 tags below a SOUR tag are now stored to the source general notes.
GEDCOM IMPORT – FROM LEGACY:
1) The _SCBK, _PREF, and _STAT flags are now processed. _SCBK is stored as a “Scrapbook” flag. Unrecognized _STAT (status) values are saved to general notes.
2) Nonstandard date spans of the form “FROM 12 JUNE 1850-1853” where a dash appears instead of “TO” are now recognized.
GEDCOM IMPORT – FROM GENERATIONS (aka EasyTree):
1) The missing space between CONC lines in notes is now added.
2) A TEXT tag below a SOUR tag is now recognized as source text. Line breaks are preserved.
3) DATE and PLAC tags below a SOUR tag are now stored as document date and place.
4) Some of the default source templates have been renamed for better matching against Generation’s source types
5) Unrecognized level-1 tags pointing to notes are now stored to the individual/family general notes.
6) An ALIA tag missing the link to an alias individual is now interpreted and stored as a name alias.
7) A NICK tag at level 1 instead of level 2 is now processed.
GEDCOM IMPORT – FROM REUNION:
1) Lines terminated only by CR are now recognized.
GEDCOM IMPORT – FROM TMG:
1) CONT lines following a source citation PAGE line are assumed to actually contain source text. Additionally, the PAGE line will be checked for an actual page number or number of some sort; if not found, it will be considered source text as well.
EVENT TEMPLATES VIEW:
1) Event types considered “Basic” can now be selected. The default is BMDB (birth, marriage, death, burial).
2) Event types can be marked “Hidden”. This prevents them from appearing in the event type pick lists when added new events. This flag can be used for infrequent or obsolete event types, to reduce the number of choices in the pick list.
3) A special “Initial Template” has been added. This record is used to initialize new event types, both when adding on the Event Templates View and when new event types are detected in a GEDCOM import file.
EVENT TEMPLATES, SOURCE TEMPLATES:
1) New keywords: [COMMENT] and [*]. When appearing in a group, as in <[COMMENT] this is a comment>, the text in the group will be treated as informational, and will not appear in the output. The new keyword [*] is equivalent.
2) A special “Global Template” has been added. This template affects all other templates, and provides a convenient place to put portions of the templates that are in common.
3) New keyword, for global templates only: […]. This keyword represents the results of the local template. It allows the global template to position elements both before and after the local template’s results.
4) The variable control parameter NOT (!) has been implemented. When an exclamation mark is inserted before a keyword name, as in [!G], it prevents the corresponding data from appearing, which can disable automatic insertions or global template insertions.
5) The variable control parameter “If not already shown” (?) has been implemented. When a question mark is inserted before a keyword name, as in [?ANNOTATION], it will cause the corresponding data to appear only if it has not appeared already.
SOURCE TEMPLATES:
1) The new keywords [CITATION ID], [DOC ID], and [SOURCE ID] have been added. They can be used to show record numbers in the footnotes, for diagnostic purposes.
2) The new keywords [EXCERPT], [DOC TEXT] and [SOURCE TEXT] have been added, to include the evidence text in the formatting, either just the excerpts cited by the citation or the full text.
INDIVIDUALS VIEW, SUMMARY PAGE – EVENTS LIST:
1) Added column “Age”. This indicates age at the time of the event.
2) Added column of checkmarks labeled “MSNW” to indicate presence in the event record of: (M) multimedia, (S) source citations, (N) notes, and (W) witnesses.
3) Added checkbox column labeled “X” to indicate and control when event records are marked “Exclude”.
4) The choices for “Basic events” can now determine the default events shown for new individuals.
INDIVIDUALS VIEW, EVENTS PAGE:
1) The choices for “Basic” events are now reflected in the default list of events available from the pick dialog.
MEDIA PICK DIALOG:
1) Media records can now be filtered by external storage location.
PROJECT VIEW:
1) Improvements have been made in the handling of new records and subrecords.
CITATIONS VIEW:
1) New page added: “Formatting”. This page allows you to view how the citation will look when formatted, and also modify the formatting for the corresponding source. Note: modifications are made to the source record’s formatting, so any changes will affect all citations linked to the same source. The ability to view/edit the formatting from the Citations View is a convenience, and is equivalent to editing the format on the Sources View, except that on this view.
CITATIONS VIEW – ASSERTIONS PAGE, SOURCES LIST:
1) Both the Citation ID and the Source ID now appear before each source name.
2) The sources can now be ordered into output order by dragging the lines.
3) Additional sources for the current assertion can be added to the source list by typing the name of the source or double-clicking to select from source pick dialog.
4) For a citation embedded in a note, all citations for the same note will be listed; those that are for a different text range than the current citation will be shown in the “second layer text” font styling.
REPORT OPTIONS VIEW, DETAIL PAGE:
1) New options were added for Source Citations. You can now control when/if event citations are merged into one footnote.
2) The “Citation Separator” combo box allows you to select the formatting between citations in a merged footnote. The default is a semi-colon; you can change this to a blank line by choosing the [CR][CR] option. You can also enter your own separator text, such as “** ALSO: “.
3) The “Ambiguous Fact Reference” combo box allows you to select the formatting for a label to appear before citations in a merged footnote, identifying which part of the sentence (date, place, etc.) the following citation(s) apply to. The default is no special labeling.
PREFERENCES VIEW:
1) Fonts Page: a new font style for “Auto-generated text” has been added. This controls how blank basic events appear on the Summary Page, and generated ages on the Summmary Page and Events Page.
2) Windows Page: Grid line options for list boxes have been added. Choices are data entry lists or all lists.
3) Windows Page: a new checkbox for “Data Dialog Windows: Remember Size” has been added. When checked, resized pick dialogs, template preview dialogs, and magnify dialogs will remember their new size the next time they are opened.
4) Operation Page: a new checkbox for “Show blank basic events” has been added. When checked, event types marked “basic” will automatically appear for all individuals on the Summary Page. This saves time on data entry, because the event types do not have to be selected from the event type combo box first.
5) Operation Page: a new checkbox for “Sort basic events first” has been added. When checked, basic events will be shown first in the Summary Page event list. Normally, all events are sorted in chronological order.
6) Operation Page: new option “Report Options File for Preview Dialogs”. A report options filename can be entered here for use on the Event Sentence Preview and Event Witness Preview dialogs.
OTHER:
1) Toolbar: the Bold, Italic, and Underline buttons can now be used for source template editing to insert the special [BOLD], [ITAL], and [UNDL] template codes. Also, “Undo” support is enabled for these functions.
2) Print Preview: the total number of pages is now included in the status bar, as in “Page 1 of 27”.
3) Source Citations: if the annotation ends with the special keyword [NOSEP], the default “Citation Separator” is not added. This can be used when formatting two citations to read as one sentence.
