GenDesigner Frequently Asked Questions
Updated: October 29th, 1998
============================================================================
Q: What is an "alias" in GenDesigner?
A: An alias behaves like a shortcut to a file on your computer. It looks
like a copy of a person. An alias and its original are two "representatives"
of the same person. You may use it when a person appears more than
once in a tree. TIP: Try double-clicking an alias.
Q: Is there a way to enter multiple marriages?
A: Yes, in 2.0, simply create them. PS: You may also indicate several
marriages if you create an alias, and links marriages to this item.
Q: Do I need an Internet connection to use GenDesigner?
A: No, not at all! You may use it just the way it is, to create and edit
trees, and you may also create HTML pages for offline viewing.
Q: Is there any likelyhood of a Macintosh version of GenDesigner in the
future?
A: Yes, there may be a version coming up, you should keep your eyes up
for it.
Q: I want to add more than 7 generations, how do I do this?
A: Right-click your mouse on the items on top of the tree, choose "Make
this an alias", and place the item somewhere else. Then create a tree for
this item. You may do this with all the items on top of your tree.
Q: I can't download your program.
A: You should contact your Internet provider.
Q: How do I print from GenDesigner?
A: In GenDesigner 2.0 you may print the whole or just a part of the tree.
Q: My pictures get all scrambled when I export to HTML. What can I do
to correct this?
A: You should increase the amount of colors on your screen to 16 bit (or
more) before exporting to HTML. This should solve your problem.
Q: How do I create framed HTML pages?
A: This is now available in version 2.0
Q: I want to distribute my GenDesigner file to others, including pictures
and additional text. How should I do this?
A: You should use "Collect all files" from the file menu. This will save
your GenDesigner file plus all pictures and text files in one directory.
