Y is for years


You can decide if you want the years a person was alive displayed in legacy.  This can be adjusted under Options > Customize > #8 View.  In 8.1 if you uncheck the check boxes the years will not be displayed in Legacy.

The image below shows the years displayed on the family tab.


The years are displayed in the family view, the pedigree view and on the name list.  The image below shows section 8.1 where you can make your changes.

Up next is my last post, letter Z, for the A to Z challenge.  It has been lots of fun sharing my Legacy database and a little of Evernote with all of you.  See you for letter Z!
