mscole 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2011 Hello, Hopefully a stupid question with a simple answer but ive searched and i cant find out how to do it.... Ive got a number of images on my project that are internal exhibits, how can i link these to a person record?, for example i have a picture of two people together already in my project, this is linked as an internal exhibit to person 1, how do i link it to person 2 as well without having to put the photo into the project again and end up with two copies of exactly the same photo? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Hi, Just my two cents: I remember trying thissomeyears ago and I thinkitis notpossible. You may link a source to severeal events, but not an exhibit. I myself would see 2 ways: 1) I do not store images internally because of too many drawbacks (project size an backup size increases very much, time to verify andoptimize the project uncreases - you may find several threads covering these issues). So, I can attach the same external image to several tags/events/persons and still have only one physical copy. 2) Create a source containing the image as an exhibit and attach the source to several events. This is what I do with Church records: the image, transcription and possibly the translation as exhibits in one source and linking this source to several events (e.g. marriage and 3proclamations, birth and baptizm, death and burial ...)
