Vince41 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 I keep the relationship option on so I can keep track of the relationship of decendants to myself. I've found what might be a flaw. My aunt on my mothers side had two sons. They show up as having no relationship to me. They should be first cousins once removed, I think. Am I wrong?

Jane Neuman 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2008 Try turning the relationship calculator off and then back on. I don't think it recalculates automatically, only when you turn it on. I put a custom button on my toolbar to toggle it on and off, thus recalculating when I've been doing a lot of data entry. Jane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barbara Grempler 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 The auto relationship tag is calculated when you first toggle auto relationship and is not changed until toggled again. When you add a new person, if you add them to the parent that already has a relationship the new person's relationship will show correctly at this time. To recalculate relationships as each person is added would significantly slow down the program. To-recalculate the relationships during a session, [Refresh relationships] from preferences. An easy way to accomplish this is to add "Toggle Relative auto-tag" to your custom toolbar. Go to: View > Toolbars > Customize. Toggle the tag off then back on to recalculate relationships.
