Genbox Family History Product Details

Enhancements/ New Features for 3.7:

  • Support for Windows Vista and translations for Russian.

Enhancements/ New Features for 3.6.2:

  • Version 3.6.2 added improved GEDCOM support, user-definable identifier types, expanded field codes, and additional language templates, plus a number of other enhancements and problem corrections.

Individuals View - Attributes Page:

  • The Years since birth label now alternates with Age to reflect the living status for the current individual.
  • The Living flag on this page can be used to force the status to living.

 GEDCOM Import:

  •  Corrected import of ANSEL special characters (UNICODE version).

 Linking to Individuals:

  • When a father, mother, spouse, child, or witness name is entered, and the name matches an existing individual in the database, the Name Pick Dialog now always appears, with choices to confirm the link to the existing individual record or create a new individual record with the same name. The Preferences Confirm New Individuals setting controls whether the dialog will appear when new names are entered.

 Adding Witnesses:

  •  Corrected problem that sometimes prevented more than one witness from being added to an event.

 Individuals View -  Summary Page:

  • The Data menu choice Merge Events now appears only when an event is the current selection. Otherwise, the Data menu displays Merge Individuals.

 Individuals View - Identifiers Page

  • A composite of preferred names having the same surname are now merged rather than concatenated: the preferred name for when George /Wilson/ and John /Wilson/ are checked becomes George (John) /Wilson/.

Individuals View - Parent's Page:

  •  Corrected entry of second parent.
