Introduction

In the reports, you can adjust the available width for individual text elements within a line by specifying dimensions according to your preferences. The dimensions used are labeled A , B , E , F , G , I , K , L1 , L2 , L3 , M , N , O , P , and T These dimensions (in millimeters) are defined in the system settings for displaying Omega-5 reports .

For each section of an evaluation, format templates are defined that contain the measurements. These format templates are included in the RTF files created by Omega, allowing you to modify the measurements later in your word processing program.

The meaning of the dimensions is illustrated with examples in the following sections. Once the paper width and margins are determined, the width of the printable area is calculated, meaning you cannot control all dimensions within the printable area. The dimension that results from the other measurements as the remaining width is marked " adjusted" .

Family block

The measurements given below are valid for the following evaluation formats: family record, personal record, local family register, lineage, ancestor lineage, (extended) lineage list, and (extended) ancestor list. For evaluation formats or settings where no consecutive number precedes the family block, lengths N and A are assumed to be zero millimeters.

Parents' Block



measure Meaning
N Width of the field in which the running number of the family block is right-aligned
A Space between serial number and following text
I additional indentation on the second and subsequent lines
E Space for the date of birth

Use in the style templates

Children's block



measure Meaning
M Width of the field in which the child's number is right-aligned
B Space between child's number and following text
K additional indentation on the second and subsequent lines
F Space for the child's first name
G Space for the child's date of birth

Use in the style templates

register



measure Meaning
O Width of the field for the name in the register entry
P Additional indentation on the second and subsequent lines can have a negative effect.

Use in the template To save space, dimension P can be set to a negative value. If dimension O is left at the default value of 85.4 mm, -80 mm is a good value for dimension P If a register entry then contains more number references than fit on one line, the references continue in further lines below, starting 5.4 mm from the left margin.

List of abbreviations



measure Meaning
T Width of the field for the abbreviation

Alphabetical list



measure Meaning
L1 Width of the field for the name
L2 Width of the field for date and location
L3 irrelevant
