Huge error. Needs to be fixed. working...

Maybe Future features

• Thinking of adding notes to the report as seen in 'Reports -> Graphs -> Family Lines Graph' and scroll all the way to the far right of the options.
• Maybe adding a border around the report.
• any others that you can think of?

1. Title - perhaps family name should be used as well? In my case it could be "Cousin Chart for Thomas Armstrong and James Wilson Armstrong". Or "...Thomas and James Wilson Armstrong".

2. Left column - Armstrong, John and McFarlane, unknown. No lines joining people to the event as there is with Armstrong, Thomas and Wilson, Margaret. In fact Armstrong, Thomas and Wilson, Margaret is the only relationship where the people and event are tied together.

3. Wilson, Margaret (second column from left). Her box isn't indented as it is with other spouses."Indent Spouses" box was ticked when the report produced. Also the spacing between her box and the event box is different to the spacing with other spouses.

4. Although no dates are shown in my database Wilson, Margaret was the first wife and Crane Elizabeth the second, and therefore her two children were older that their step-siblings, so the report sequence isn't correct.

5. Would it be better to tie main person with event and spouse with a verticle line instead of horizontal lines out the end of the box? See my example in red with Armstrong, James Wilson and Casey, Ann. Of greater importance with families in the right column.

8. Always nice to generate a small box somewhere that says "Print Date...". Perhaps an option in the Print tab under "Print page numbers"?
